Unbelievable?

Listen to a compelling classic discussion between David Instone-Brewer, a New Testament scholar, and Bob Price, a professor of biblical criticism. This Unbelievable focuses on the scandals surrounding Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection, as argued in David's book, 'The Jesus Scandals.' David posits these events based on their embarrassing nature for early Christians. In contrast, Price offers a skeptical perspective, suggesting alternative explanations involving mythic and cultural influences. The dialogue explores various pieces of evidence, including the Talmud and the Nazareth Inscription, and debates the plausibility and historical context of the resurrection accounts.

As Easter approaches, we explore the significance of Jesus’ death and resurrection in Christianity and Islam. Bible scholar Rev Dr David Instone-Brewer joins Islamic apologist Ijaz Ahmed for a thought-provoking debate on the crucifixion, resurrection, and the divinity of Jesus. Is the resurrection a historical fact or a later theological idea? 📚 David's book: https://amzn.to/426FPXA 🌐 David: www.InstoneBrewer.com 🌐 Ijaz: callingchristians.com 🎉 Bonus content & more: www.premierunbelievable.com 🎧 Subscribe: https://pod.link/267142101 ⚡️ Support: https://www.premierunbelievable.com/donate

As we prepare a fresh episode exploring the legacy of Intelligent Design, we’re diving back into the archives to revisit this compelling 2020 conversation between biochemist Michael Behe and biologist Joshua Swamidass. In 2005, the high-profile Kitzmiller v. Dover trial challenged the Dover School District’s attempt to introduce Intelligent Design (ID) as an alternative to evolution in the classroom. Behe, a leading advocate for ID and a key witness in the trial, reflects on the case and its impact on the movement 15 years later. Swamidass, a fellow Christian and critic of ID, engages Behe on the scientific and theological implications of the trial and offers a robust critique of Behe’s book Darwin Devolves. A fascinating and respectful face-off on science, faith, and the question of design in nature. 📌 Stay Connected & Join the Conversation 📍 Twitter (X):@UnbelievableFE 📍 Facebook:@PremierUnbelievable 📍 Instagram:@Premier.Unbelievable 📍 TikTok:@PremierUnbelievable For Michael Behe: https://michaelbehe.com/ For Joshua Swamidass: https://peacefulscience.org/
