Professor Bart D. Ehrman via video conferencing joins Mormon Stories Podcast, hosted by Dr. John Dehlin (Clinical/Counseling Psychology) for what they called an "power-hour discussion" on April 13th, 2018 episode #904. The lively interview with Bart (starting at 3:50) covered the following topics:
1) Did the historical figure we know as Jesus actually exist?
2) How did the historical figure Jesus come to be viewed as divine/the Son of God?
3) Who wrote the New Testament? (hint: it wasn’t Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, etc.)
4) Do important contradictions exist between the four gospels of the New Testament, and what does that tell us?
5) How was the New Testament assembled and changed over time?
6) How/why did Dr. Bart Ehrman change from believing the Holy Bible to be the inerrant word of God, to an agnostic?
7) What are Dr. Ehrman’s thoughts on the historicity of the Book of Mormon?
