In a thought-provoking discussion, Bart Ehrman, a New Testament expert from UNC, challenges the traditional view of Jesus' divinity, arguing that the early Church transformed him into the Son of God. Simon Gathercole, a scholar from Cambridge and contributor to a response book, counters by exploring how the Gospels present Jesus' identity. The debate dives into the historical context of early Christianity, the evolution of beliefs around Jesus' resurrection, and differing interpretations of scripture, shedding light on the complexities of Christ's divine status.

Simon Gathercole, Cambridge New Testament scholar who studies early Christology, and Bart Ehrman, New Testament historian known for critical books on early Christianity. They clash over whether Paul and early writings view Jesus as God or an exalted being. The conversation probes Philippians 2, creation language, dating of sources, and how early worship of Jesus emerged.

Robby Dawkins (not to be confused with Richard) says he regularly sees healing miracles occur for the people he prays for. Cancer is gone, blind eyes see, pain disappears, even a lung was re-grown. David Beebee, an atheist sceptic with an interest in the charismatic church interacts with Dawkins and questions why we don't see more convincing proof, and what he does about the 'misses'. We also hear from a Christian who is sceptical of modern miracle claims, Dr Peter May. Book for Unbelievable?
