In this episode of the Faith Film Fan Podcast, host Rick Altizer sits down with archaeologist Dr. Chris McKinney to explore the fascinating new documentary LEGENDS OF THE LOST ARK.
Together, they dive into the historical, biblical, and archaeological mystery surrounding the Ark of the Covenant—one of the most iconic and intriguing objects in Scripture. Dr. McKinney shares insights from his research, the process of bringing ancient history to life on screen, and how the film separates biblical truth from centuries of legends and speculation.
You’ll also get a behind-the-scenes look at how the film was created—from filming in Israel to recreating biblical scenes in Colombia—and why this project aims to combine academic accuracy with cinematic storytelling.
If you’ve ever wondered what really happened to the Ark, how archaeology connects to Scripture, or how faith-based documentaries are made, this episode is a must-listen.
