A Biblical journey—Thirty-two Birmingham-Southern students and two staff members, guided by BSC Bishop-in-Residence Bob Morgan, spent the majority of the January Interim term exploring Biblical and archeological sites in Greece, Asia Minor, and Italy. Tracing “The Footsteps of Paul,” the group visited and studied the lands associated with the ancient apostle and his Christian missionary journeys. Pictured above, students sit among the ruins of the Acropolis of Pergamum in Turkey. In the photo below, Morgan (kneeling, far right) leads the group to an area in Berea, Greece, that commemorates Paul’s preaching in the city. As the college’s 39th Interim term comes to a close, BSC students are about to begin the spring term Feb. 6, following a brief winter break.
