BYU's Bethlehem Exhibit Highlights Forgotten History and CultureDec 12, 201823mGuests: Cynthia Finlayson Professor of Anthropology, BYU. Paul Stavast, Director of the BYU Museum of Peoples and Cultures. For Christians, Bethlehem brings to mind shepherds and angels and a holy babe lying in a manger.

BYU’s Museum of Peoples and Cultures has a new exhibit that shows a more nuanced side of the little town where Christ was born. It’s called “Returning to Bethlehem: A Cultural Pilgrimage.”
