Preserving Bible Times (PBT) is a faith-based ministry with a vision for preserving and presenting Biblical Truth and meaning through integrating the Biblical text with its visual, historical, geographical, literary and cultural context. PBT’s strategy is to creatively assemble a “tool box” of Bible Times related images and contextual elements that will allow the Scriptures to increasingly come al
ive for 21st Century people as they did for 1st Century hearers. As part of its charter, PBT has assembled one of the finest archives of Bible Times related images in the world. This includes thousands of high quality aerial and land photographic images of Bible Times archeology, culture, geography, as well as hard-to-acquire museum pieces. In addition, PBT has assembled hundreds of hours of high resolution aerial and land digital motion footage that is without peer. These resources are shared in a variety of ways with Christian organizations to encourage believers and further equip teachers and preachers in the Body of Christ. As a non-profit, 501 (c) 3 tax-exempt corporation, Preserving Bible Times depends on the contributions of like-minded people, as well as revenues from its “Bible in Context” resources to 1) research and write on the cultural, literary, historical and geographical context of the Bible, and 2) share these contextual materials in a variety of ways, e.g., print, video, digital, and trips to Israel, with followers of Jesus Christ everywhere.
