Lecture Series on “Evidence & God” | The facts about Jesus’ fate on which all historians agree
26
Apr
The Faculty of Religious Studies and Philosophy will hold a Public Lecture on “Evidence & God” titled “The facts about Jesus’ fate on which all historians agree” on 26 April 2022.
ABOUT THE SERIES:
Can we know that God exists? Is there evidence for God? Is there a conflict between science and religion? What constitutes good evidence for a religious claim? This lecture series explores answers to these questions.
ABOUT THE TALK:
History is a discipline in which the political, philosophical, and religious opinions of historians very often influence their conclusions more than the historical data. Objectivity in the study of Jesus of Nazareth is extremely rare. In this lecture, Dr. Mike Licona discusses facts about Jesus’ fate for which the supporting data are so strong that a heterogeneous consensus of scholars grant them as ‘facts.’ He then discusses where he thinks the facts point.
ABOUT THE SPEAKER:
Dr. Licona
Dr. Licona is associate professor of theology at Houston Baptist University, is a member of the Society For New Testament Studies, and is the author of numerous books.
