About this listen

Is there evidence to believe the Gospels?

The Gospels - Matthew, Mark, Luke, John - are four accounts of Jesus' life and teachings while on earth. But should we accept them as historically accurate? What evidence is there that the recorded events actually happened?

Presenting a case for the historical reliability of the Gospels, New Testament scholar Peter Williams examines evidence from non-Christian sources, assesses how accurately the four biblical accounts reflect the cultural context of their day, compares different accounts of the same events, and looks at how these texts were handed down throughout the centuries. Everyone from the skeptic to the scholar will find powerful arguments in favor of trusting the Gospels as trustworthy accounts of Jesus' earthly life.

Overall I found the book informative. A few of the pronunciations seemed different from what I am used too. Here is a list of the chapters (which I couldn't find here on audible):
1 What do non-Christian sources say?
2 What are the four gospels?
3 Did the Gospel authors know their stuff?
4 Undesigned Coincidences
5 Do we have Jesus's actual words?
6 Has the text changed?
7 What about contradictions?
8 Who would make all this up?
