WHO: Benjamin C.F. Shaw, president of Core Apologetics, adjunct professor of theology at Liberty University, and affiliate faculty member of Colorado Christian University. 

HE SAYS: “The New Testament enjoys a textual tradition that stands out in a crowd and provides an ‘embarrassment of riches’ for scholars.” 

THE BIG IDEA: This book explores evidence related to the New Testament’s historical credibility.

THE PROGRESSION: The author introduces 13 different arguments that each point toward the reliability of the New Testament. Each argument is presented in a chapter that offers guidance for exploring a wide variety of evidence including archaeology, authorship, text criticism and non-Christian sources.

“Such evidence does not change whether one is a believer, nonbeliever, or anywhere in between.”
