Episodes

E1: The Books of the New Testament

The Bible did not fall from the sky, written in “Ye Olde English” with the words of Jesus in red print. It came through the story and struggles of the early church.

E2: The World of Jesus and the Apostles

If it had been up to a human strategist to plan the successful entry of God into history, it is unlikely he or she would have chosen locations like Bethlehem, Nazareth, and Galilee.

E8: The Creation of the New Testament

When God gave people his Word, the Bible, he did not give them the finished puzzle. In a sense, he gave them the box filled with so many pieces that it took centuries for them to put it together. It wasn’t just one person who worked on this puzzle, but countless individuals from a rich mix of tim...
