Busted : exposing popular myths about Christianity

Sommaire:
People say a lot of things about the Bible, God, Jesus, and Christianity that are simply not true. So in the style of the popular cable show, Mythbusters, a New Testament scholar uses biblical and historical evidence - and humor - to do a little myth busting of his own. Following a brief summary of a recurring myth or misconception about the Christian faith, Fred explains why the myth is false and provides biblical and historical evidence in his response. He masterfully weaves together serious discussion with a touch of humor in his responses, all the while keeping the focus on the Scriptures.
