Tom took some time to talk with Shane Blackshear on his podcast <a href="http://www.shaneblackshear.com/ntwright">Seminary Dropout</a> in May of 2015. <br /><br />Some things discussed on the show…<br /><br /><div class="p1"><span class="s1">…associating Reformed theology with people like John Piper, Tim Keller, and others with similar theology, and that sometimes causes confusion to know that Wright sees much of his own views in line with reformed tradition, when it seems like his tone is much different that those people just mentioned.</span></div><div class="p1"><br /></div><div class="p1"><span class="s1">…how do we know that God intended for his authority to be given through scripture. In other words how do we know that some day we’re not going to stand before God with him saying ‘Hey the Bible was just words that were written several thousands years ago by people who were just describing their experiences with me the best they can but it wasn’t suppose to be anything more to you than inspirational and a lose guide’ ?</span></div><div class="p1"><br /></div><div class="p1"><span class="s1">….in the new introduction The Challenge of Jesus, Wright spent some time talking about the idea that he originally wrote TCoJ on the other side Sept 11, 2001. In what ways Wright thinks that changes our perspective on the words </span></div><div class="p1"><span class="s1">he wrote in TCoJ?</span></div><div class="p1"><br /></div><div class="p1"><span class="s1">…what view the reformation brought of Jesus that was a change from the old view.</span></div><div class="p1"><br /></div><div class="p1"><span class="s1">…what view the enlightenment brought.</span></div><div class="p1"><br /></div><div class="p1"><span class="s1">…the historicity of Jesus and how the oral tradition worked.</span></div><div class="p1"><br /></div><div class="p1"><span class="s1">…the parable of the sower in Mark 4:1-20. What we usually miss by not paying attention to Jesus’ Jewish roots.</span></div><div class="p1"><br /></div><div class="p1"><span class="s1">…how all of this relates to the Christian task and vision today.</span></div> <audio controls=""><source src="http://traffic.libsyn.com/seminarydropout/NT_Wright_for_publication.mp3"></source></audio>
