Thankyou to mark goldacre for these podcasts. I like how mark explains things for a non academic audience. Really understandable. Mark and Bart Ehrman must be protected at all costs.
My favorite NT scholar and podcast of all time! I play the episodes on repeat
Accessible insight into NT scholarship, historical Jesus research, origins of Christianity and more. Mark is an excellent presenter and host. It’s an honour to have open access to this scholarship.
Put your propeller hat on and get ready for an academic deep dive into the New Testament and Christian Origins. Featuring monologues, interviews, book discussions, and repurposed lectures, this podcast by Mark Goodacre (Frances Hill Fox Professor of Religious Studies at Duke University) is a wealth of information and insight. If you're ready for something deeper than simple 'feel good spirituality', this show has a rich depth and honest academic integrity.
This is an excellent and clear discussion of various issues in Net Testament and Christian origins. I especially recommend it to anyone who loves theology but has graduated from school (or seminary). This is stimulating discussion and Goodacre does a great job acknowledging his perspective/conclusions while still charitably explaining views of those with whom he disagrees.
