Pints With Aquinas

In this episode, Matt sits down with Dr. Michael Barber—professor of Sacred Scripture and Theology at the Augustine Institute. (Fun fact: Dr. Barber was Matt's first college professor!)

Matt and Dr. Barber focus their conversation on the Gospels, particularly the historical accuracy of the Gospels, how much of the Gospel is fact vs. myth, evidence for the proof of Jesus' existence, the problems with Jesus Mythicism, what Historical Jesus Scholarship is and why it differs from belief, and much more.
