Worldview Campus Lectures is a seasonal lecture series featuring leading Christian scholars, scientists, historians, and thinkers who equip attendees to understand and engage every area of life from a distinctly biblical worldview.
Tracing the First Peoples
Join us at Worldview Campus for a fascinating day exploring the origins and early history of the world’s first peoples through the lens of biblical history, genetics, and anthropology.
Drawing from his bestselling books Traced and They Had Names, Dr. Nathaniel Jeanson will present the latest research on human DNA, the dispersion of the nations after Babel, and the origins of Indigenous peoples of North America. Discover how modern genetic evidence provides compelling support for the historical reliability of Scripture and offers fresh insight into humanity’s shared ancestry.
Whether you are interested in biblical archaeology, anthropology, genetics, apologetics, or early history, this event will equip you with a deeper understanding of God’s design for humanity and the truthfulness of the biblical record.
