| 0:18.0 | Hello and welcome to a very special episode of Faith Add JP. |
| 0:21.7 | I'm your host Erin Moon, Resident Bible scholar on the Bible binge, and this month, |
| 0:26.0 | We wanted to do something a little different and take you back behind the scenes of one of our |
| 0:30.0 | most recent Bible-Binge seminary faith adjacent book clubs, featuring an incredible discussion |
| 0:35.6 | with Dr. Jody Magnus. Dr. Jody is a professor of early Judaism at the University of North Carolina |
| 0:42.1 | at Chapel Hill and she is a professional archaeologist who digs stuff up, which makes her very cool. |
| 0:49.2 | We loved this conversation with Dr. Jody so much we wanted everyone in the Bible-Binge community |
| 0:54.3 | to be able to listen. So before we get started, just a couple of housekeeping notes. In this |
| 0:59.2 | episode you'll hear me, Erin Moon, you'll hear Evan Dodson, our Bible-Binge community manager. |

| 1:37.1 | you may hear what sounds like dog barking at times. They're still dog, but a couple of times our |
| 1:42.1 | Wi-Fi got wonky and it crunched the audio, so we do apologize for that. So without further ado, |
| 1:47.8 | please enjoy this conversation with Dr. Jody Magnus. I wanted to be an archaeologist since I was |
| 1:53.2 | 12 years old. I had a really good teacher in seventh grade. We did a history teacher. We did |
| 2:00.0 | world history that year and I fell in love with ancient Greece. And at the same time, I was finding |
