  • I'm 6 episodes in and so far it's just a cold list of facts and events. It sounds like the narrator is reading a wiki page on the bible. They are often repeating the same things a few times with different words. they are not offering any personal interpretation or point of view. The flat, obsessive tone becomes unpleasant after a while. also there are two minutes of commercials every five minutes of content

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Caspar, Melchior, and Balthazar
Q: What would you say are the one or two things that you really came away with from this research project?
Most modern biblical scholars have dismissed the Magi story as unhistorical, leading to a lack of comprehensive examination that could uncover its historical validity.
Epiphany
Q: What interested you in the story of the Magi originally?
Longenecker was prompted to investigate the Magi as he was approached to write a Christmas story for a publication, leading him to look deeper than the common scholarly dismissals of the Magi as fictional.
Epiphany
Q: How did that perspective frame your approach to the story of the Magi?
Father Longenecker states that while myth and legend add richness to the story, it is essential to separate them from the historical facts.
Gospel of Luke
Q: What is your favorite book, chapter in the Bible, and why?
The Gospel of Luke is packed with great parables, and the story of Exodus reflects the love God has for his people.
Gospel of Luke
Q: Why isn't there much of an emphasis on reading the Bible as Catholics?
From the beginning, the leaders of the Church have always studied and known the Scriptures inside and out, but for most of Christian history, education was low and books were expensive, making it difficult for the masses to read the Bible.
