#17: Behind the Tour: Museum of the Bible

In episode #17 of this Behind the Tour podcast, we head a few blocks south of the National Mall in the heart of Washington, D.C. to visit with Museum of the Bible.  Host Aaron Cronk sits with Shannon Bennett, CMO for Museum of the Bible and takes our listeners on a quick journey of some of the highlights of this amazing museum.

Opened to the public in November of 2017, the Museum of the Bible has been a favorite stop of many ACTS tour participants.  The museum aims to be among the most technologically advanced and engaging museums in the world and offers its visitors an immersive and personalized experience with the Bible and its ongoing impact on the world.  The museum showcases many rare and fascinating artifacts spanning 4,000 years of history. 

Highlighted in this podcast is information on some of the popular exhibits, features of the building – its famous doors and main floor ceiling, the museum’s indoor “ride” Washington Revelations, information on how the museum was started, some of the challenges with artifacts, and much more.
