Can we actually discover the real Jesus? Could the disciples have remembered the teachings of Jesus when they wrote the Gospels decades later? Sean and Scott welcome Dr. Craig Blomberg, a leading New Testament scholar, to discuss how Jesus scholarship has developed over the past few decades and some remarkable new trends.

Dr. Craig Blomberg is professor Emeritus of New Testament at Denver Seminary. He is the author or editor of over 20 books on the historical Jesus including Jesus the Purifier: John's Gospel and the Fourth Quest for the Historical Jesus.
