Can We Trust the Gospels? - Bart Ehrman vs Tim McGrew 2/2

On Saturday 25th July 2015 - 02:30 pm, Bart D. Ehrman and Timothy J. McGrew return as guests with moderator Justin Brierley on radio show "Unbelievable," a weekly program aired on UK Premier Christian Radio from the London studio. They discuss "Do Undesigned Coincidences Confirm the Gospels?" Bart and Tim return to debate research by McGrew on the so-called ‘undesigned coincidences’ between different Gospel accounts that give them the ring of truth. They also debate whether historical research can ever validate miraculous conclusions as they differ over accounts in the book of Acts.
