The annual Andrews Autumn Conference on Religion & 科学是……的功能 bet365中文大学 and the Midwest Religion and Science Society (夫人), an organization representing a variety of faith backgrounds including 基督复临安息日会, 再洗礼派教徒, 弟兄会, 和天主教. The forum takes place in the Biology Ampitheater on 星期五 & Saturday, November 12-13, 2021.

The theme is "The Andrews Way of Doing Archaeology." Excavations in Hisban Jordan were started in 1968 by 齐格弗里德H. 角. He later founded the 角 Archaeological Museum, which now houses one of the largest cuneiform collections in the United States. The guidelines under which he worked have been established as the “Andrews Way” of doing archaeology—guidelines still followed by workers in biblical archaeology:

  1. Be forthright with findings. Do not minimize problems or stretch interpretations of data to explain things away.
  2. Do not make claims beyond what the data can support.
  3. Be quick and complete in publishing results.
  4. Engage and work within mainstream scholarship.
  5. Include a diversity of people and specialists.
  6. Take the history of the Bible seriously, but do not place upon archaeology the burden of “proving” the Bible.

Although these guidelines were established for Biblical Archaeology, they are applicable to other disciples and their relation to biblical faith. 

The 2021 speakers include Andrews professors Øystein LaBianca, and Randall W. Younker, as well as Darrell J. 助理教授, 加尔文大学), Christopher Jenkins (PhD Student, 耶鲁大学), Carina Prestes (PhD Student, bet365中文大学), and Kevin Burton (Director, Center for Adventist 研究). The conference is sponsored by the 基督复临安息日会 Theological Seminary, Institute of Archaeology and 齐格弗里德H. 角博物馆, Theological Center for Interdisciplinary Dialogue,和 办公室 研究 and Creative Scholarship
