Did the Gospels get Jesus right? Are the sayings of Jesus invented or fabricated? Why are there differences in the Gospels? How should we respond to claims like that of Bart Ehrman? Why is divine authorial intent crucial for understanding what Jesus is claiming and what the Gospel writers believe?

In this episode, Matthew Barrett talks with Peter Williams about the credibility of the Gospels, especially in a day when their reliability is thrown into question.
