The amazing interest into the work and discoveries of Dr. Jim Rankin continue as he makes an appearance on the popular podcast show, The Ryan Files, hosted by Ryan Pelton.
Rankin and Pelton's relationship goes way back when Jim was in the entertainment field and made note of the talent of a young Ryan Pelton, especially his love for Elvis Presley. Rankin helped Pelton in his early career, and now Ryan stands on his own as an actor, performer, and now successful podcast show host. Those near Branson, Missouri will know Ryan as the Branson Elvis in the Legends In Concert show at the Pepsi Theater. Others might recognize him from his lead role in the film 'The Identical', starring alonside Ashley Judd, Seth Green and Ray Liotta.

Episode 24 of The Ryan Files will definately become a favorite, and has already gained great attention on YouTube.

Planning the Gospel Training Center for Ethiopian Jews: Just Waiting for YOU!
The plans are in place...now AIT is waiting on Christians to gather to support the first ever Gospel Training Center for Ethiopian Jews. The purpose of this plan is to teach the Word of God, the opportunity for Salvation, and educate on the Bible to the Ethiopian Jewish tribes before they begin to make the returns to Israel. That dream is now a reality, but the number have to grow, and the only way to do that a secured training center to relieve the fear of persecution. As AIT is currently reaching and teaching the Jews, the problem on not having a secured facility to bring in the masses has proven to be a huge obstacle. With the war in Ethiopia, prices are prime for us to now look at purchasing a large facility, walled for security, and big enough to bring in larger groups. We just need funding, and with a matching $35,000 put on the table, the time is now for the $450,000 project. If you would like to be a part of this effort, please contact us immediately, and help us bring revival to Israel through the Ethiopian Jews.
Faiths Working Together for the Glory of God
When you're working for the good of God's kingdom, building great working relationships is an important part of the plan to getting things done. Since the beginning, Dr. Rankin has been a huge believer in bringing peace between faiths, especially when it comes to constructing bigger opportunities to reach out the Gospel to the masses. One great example of this is the friendships he has built with the elder priest and bishops of the Coptic church located in Sakha, Egypt where the famous Footprint of Jesus has been held within the church. This footprint was recovered from hiding decades ago, and it has been kept in very unsafe and primitive ways. A great trust and friendship was built (only by the touch of God), and the priests and bishops partnered with Dr. Rankin, allowing him to design, construct, and thus protect this incredible historical artifact of Jesus. In this photo, you can see footprint stone and the trust that Jim hA with the church, as he places it within it's newly designed case, within the vault to keep it safe. In the photo, knowing Dr. Rankin is of a different faith, the bishops wanted to all gather together with him as he opened the footprint for them to witness. These men came in from Alexandria, Cairo, and Sakha, Egypt, along with a bishop from Russia. This shows the trust and the bonding together for the good of sharing Jesus to world. Although this site is not visited very often because of its location in the north of Egypt, that trusting bond has been a great example of what teamwork, trust, prayer, and faith can do when it all works together.
Protecting the Ark Footholds & the Footprint of Jesus!
Adventures In Truth continues to be a presence on the Island of Tana Kirkos on Lake Tana in Ethiopia, as the team once again made a stop there in May of 2024. Tana Kirkos is where Dr. Rankin made the discovery of the footholds of the Ark of the Covenant. It's also where he found the 2nd footprints of Jesus (1st being in Egypt and 3rd in Israel), and then translated many of the manuscripts kept in the treasury or other sites nearby. In 2022, with the help of our Ethiopian team, Dr. Jim had the platform of the Ark of the Covenant covered with a metal awning, and in 2015 he had the footprint covered on the top cliffside. Each time the team visits the island, the overwhelming feeling of the Lord projects from these locations, as the door is always open to him by the guardian priest of the island. If you have an interest in joining us on one of our expeditions tours or one of our mission trips to work with the Ethiopian Jews, please contact us today.
Mini Documentaries Continue to Reach-Out on Facebook
Since mid-2023, Dr. Jim Rankin has appeared on Facebook in a series of videos with on-site evidence of the Bible and Jesus in both Ethiopia and Egypt. These programs, in various lengths, have brought the viewers to a greater understanding of the Bible and the movement of Jesus' trek into Egypt than ever before. We've had great comments such as, "Wow, this is absolutely some of the most compelling evidence of the Bible than I've ever seen before." Another said, "I didn't know there was anything about Egypt in existance today, let alone that anything whatsoever has been kept about Jesus...It has just opened my mind to the posibilities!" Dr. Rankin's approach to bringing truth is filled with years of research, evidence, on-site investigating, and finally putting the puzzle together so all can understand. We hope you get a chance to view these videos on the Adventures In Truth Facebook page with the first series of Egypt in the Bible with Episode 1 airing in May. Then each month after another was aired. After 5 episodes of Egypt we will move onto 5 episodes of The Bible in Ethiopia, and then rotate back and forth from there. Hope you get to watch, the response has been outstanding!
