Ep. 78 – Lydia McGrew Interview – Part 2

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKY5rlM40iA

We welcome Dr. Lydis McGrew to the show to talk about her two books, “Hidden in Plain View” and “The Mirror and the Mask“. For this part, we cover Dr. McGrew’s book about whether or not the Gospels are Literary Device or Historical Narrative. Literary devices are the theory that the Gospels are used by the authors to convey a message over being historically accurate. There’s a lot to be said about this subject and a lot of controversy so we should approach this with balance and reading both sides in the best light possible.

What are your thoughts on the subject? What did you think of the interview?
