Jesus said, "blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.” Although I do not physically see Jesus I do see so much evidence that builds my faith in Him. This is mind blowing. Thank you

[timothypeitsch]

It’s hard to believe that it’s been more than 20 years that our family has been blessed by your videos. It would be hard for us to express how blessed we’ve been by them. God bless you and everything you do. And please keep up the amazing work.

As a modern-day Assyrian, I feel a sense of pride knowing that the library of our ancient king Ashurbanipal has helped to verify and confirm many Biblical characters, dates, and facts. Moreover, to this day, our liturgy maintains the Aramaic language as spoken to the people of Assyria by Saints Thaddeus, Thomas, Mari, and Bartholomew. 🙏🏻✝️

I just ordered your book Joel. I’m excited to read it with my wife and kids. God bless you and your family. Thanks for bringing the Bible to life.

[paul]

You are a grace to me and to many. Just when I need to be refreshed in my heart by your faith, you show up. Grace to you and to your family.

My biggest dream was always to be a biblical archeologist, you just came up on my recommended videos and I've never clicked so fast. Can't wait to order your book. This is my absolute passion, bringing the stories and miracles of God right into the real physical world.

[michaeldunjey]

Said it before and I’ll say it again, that son you raised, the way he shares your passion, the way he presents himself, the way you’ve partnered together in this. Praise God for being such a faithful father to him, as our Father is to all of us. Look forward to seeing more of him in future clips 👍🙏

[dwaynehilton]

I probably won't make it to Israel anytime soon so I live vicariously through your videos. We were so spoiled when they were coming out every week or 2 but they are so much quality teaching in each one you put out. Thanks and keep them coming!

[MattyJ]

As an Assyrian, No other channel has made me truly conceptualise the importance of Assyrian archeological history than these legends. God bless you for all your work.

Love this! My three year old granddaughter has been learning about Jonah in Sunday School. She was obsessed with telling me all about it, which I think is wonderful . This is far above her ability to grasp, but I think it is amazing. I will share with my son, he has been getting back to Bible study, thank you Lord. I get so excited when you post a new vlog. God bless from Texas, Shalom.

I love when science and archaeology proves the Word of God is true. Thanks Professor and your team.

[johnbarron]

I love that your son is carrying the torch. Thank you for your content as it has given me clarification on things far greater than my reading alone.

[anabanana]

And the stones will cry out. God is amazing in how He preserves His truth in His creation . Great vid 👍

[Cmonman]

My husband and I wait anxiously for these to come out! It's our special treat. We always watch them together

On March 26th 2022,
just past midnight,
I was restless in bed,
my limbs became numb & tingly,
my chest became tight,
& my heart felt like it was being crushed.

So I sang out to God and Jesus,
about my pain, my feelings,
my faults and my inabilities.

As I sang, I began to feel like a river,
& a hand was on my back,
it's fingers where skimming the surface of the waters,
separating the waters,
causing ripples through my body.

Then the hand reached inside my chest,
lit my heart on fire,
& the heat moved like waves through my body.

When I was done singing,
all the pain was gone,
& I looked at the clock,
it was past 1am,
I had sang near an hour.

Then the voice of my guardian angel called my name from above,
& there was a hymn of energy in the air,
the same hymn I hear in my dreams of God.

Glory, Honor, blessings, thanks and praise to the Lord my God,
for healing my heart during a heart attack!

Hallelujah to the Lord my God for healing my heart!
Hallelujah for His son Jesus for saving my soul!
Hallelujah for every day!
Hallelujah for every breath!

The Lord is Faithful and true!

May the Lord Bless your hearts,
so that you have the will and strength to turn from selfish sins,
and flee from the slaveries of the flesh!

I recommend this channel to so many people in my everyday life it’s crazy. This channel is one of the best introductions to Christianity

[lizzieb.]

Joel’s videos are amazing ! Extremely well done and his passion for Christ brings tears to my eyes. Thank you so much. I’m going to start rereading your book. Linda in Corpus Christi, Texas

Joel, this video on Biblical chronology was so well done and builds my confidence even more in the trustworthiness of the Bible. Thank you.

On a personal note I lived in Izmir, Turkey from 1975-77 while my dad worked at the NATO HQs there. I think I experienced the same solar eclipse in April 1976 that you experienced in Saudi Arabia. I was on a field trip with my 8th grade class to Ephesus that day where we experienced it. Now I can attach a date to my memory too! Thank you!

[anandrew]

I like how you bring everything back to Jesus at the end. I look forward to the return of our Lord and savior!
