Dr. Ron Charles — The Christian Indiana Jones

Dr. Ron Charles has been called many things—scholar, humanitarian, explorer—but most famously, he’s earned the nickname “The Christian Indiana Jones.” With over 60 years dedicated to uncovering the hidden intersections of history, archaeology, and Scripture, Dr. Charles has personally investigated more than 400 ancient cities across the Middle East, tracing the footsteps of kings, prophets, and the Messiah Himself.

Armed with multiple doctorates and a deep passion for truth, he has unearthed powerful evidence that confirms—and often expands—what we know from the Bible. Whether he’s studying rare manuscripts in ancient libraries, walking the ruins of forgotten empires, or delivering humanitarian aid to war-torn nations, Dr. Charles brings unmatched depth, perspective, and authenticity to his work.

He is the author of many books, where he combines rigorous historical and archeological research with spiritual insight to reveal amazing truths buried beneath centuries of tradition. When he’s not exploring the world and serving as a missionary worldwide, Dr. Charles speaks internationally, inspiring believers to see Scripture with fresh eyes and a hungry heart for truth.

Today, Dr. Charles continues his mission work as the Founder and CEO of The Cubit Foundation, a global humanitarian organization dedicated to living out the Gospel through action. While serving worldwide, Cubit focuses primarily on Egypt and South America—feeding widows and orphans, providing clean water, and constructing homes and facilities for those in desperate need.

“Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.” – James 1:27
