Friends.
What are the Gospels and how should we read them?
In this clip from my conversation with Amy-Jill Levine, we take a closer look at what the Gospel writers were actually doing when they told the story of Jesus as she talks to us about her book, “Signs and Wonders”.
Rather than thinking of the Gospels as four “Jesus cams” recording everything that Jesus said and did, AJ describes them as four different portraits of Jesus.
Why?
Because the Gospel writers weren't simply recording events ... they were shaping and retelling the stories in ways that communicated what they believed was important about Jesus.
And we can see this especially clearly in the stories about Jesus' miracles.
HERE’S the clip. Full episode is linked above.
