- Fantastic
Bart and Megan provide interesting and accessible information and analysis to these important topics. They’ve sparked a lot of thought for me and a springboard for further reading and my own review of these topics. I grew up in the Catholic Church and have been an atheist since I was a teenager. The historical and literary information presented provide a much greater context and interest than anything I received when I was a young person in catechism.

The whole point of Jesus incarnation is to bring the love of God to the people. Not once have I heard the love of Christ from either the host of the show or the speaker. This podcast is like a specially decorated cake made of feces.

Dr. Ehrman has all the knowledge of a top scholar, without the stuffy pretension. I like his jovial chuckles sprinkled throughout. I also can hear the compassion and humility in his voice when he’s expressing a thought that may be difficult for some listeners to hear. I’ve found him endearing and gravitate to his demeanor. I’m a Christian and an Ehrman fan!!! He is the kind of person I can learn from without feeling like my faith is being assaulted.

This podcast is fascinating. First I listened to ‘How Jesus Became God’ on Audible and then viewed Dale Martin’s series ‘NT History & Literature’ on YouTube and now I’m 35 episodes in to ‘Misquoting Jesus’. It’s outstanding. The historical Jesus is much more interesting and powerful than the one I remember being presented in church. ❤️
