  • Great Addition

    Michael Bird is a great addition to the show! Although, Justine provided a nice Teacher/Student dynamic (Wright humorously correcting his Latin), Dr. Bird adds clarity to the matter instead of confusion! He is quite the scholar and affirms Dr. Wright’s trajectory. These scholars are the top tier of academia and we are blessed to have them!

  • Different approach to theology than what I'm used to. But I believe that NT Wright is probably no heretic, just different. I subtract 2 stars because he usually does not give straight answers but often just circles a question without providing an actual answer, especially on controversial issues. I'm sometimes left thinking, "So what exactly does he believe? ... his answer sounds great, but I'm unclear of what he was actually trying to say." E.g. one question on the lake of fire gets no answer.... more

  • Who is this new host?

    I tune in to hear NT Wrights wisdom- not the host. Justin was great but this new guy talks way too much. It’s enough to keep me from listening going forward.
