Description

Just in time for Easter, an historian's look at Jesus and how he was turned into a divine figure by those who believed in him.   Bart Ehrman (Facebook, Twitter) returns to Religion For Life to discuss his new book, How Jesus Became God:  The Exaltation of a Jewish Preacher from Galilee.  This book is a fascinating look at the theological development of the Jewish preacher, Jesus.   We talk about the various ways ancients thought about the divine as well as how Jesus was believed to fit those models and how visions borne of grief turned into proclamations of resurrection.   Join me as I speak with one of the foremost scholars of the historical Jesus!
