S2 E17. NT Wright: Acts, miracles and the rebirth of today’s church
NT Wright is Senior Research fellow at Wycliffe Hall, Oxford University, the former Bishop of Durham and a prolific author. Justin talks to Tom about his most recent book 'The Challenge of Acts'. How does the rise of the early church under the the Roman Empire - often through miracles, signs and wonders - speak to our post-Christian west and the modern search for meaning? Their conversation includes a deep dive into Paul’s famous stand off with the philosophers of Athens in Acts 17. What does the famous sermon on Mars Hill have to say to a church seeking to speak to a world that is often hostile to Christian faith?
