This blog will be brief. Day of Discovery is broadcasting a series
on the IBR Jesus Group's work on the historical Jesus. This is a decade
long project involving several evangelical scholars. We filmed these
shows last summer as we were wrapping up our work for publication later
this year. It is eight shows, two of which are now up on the net for
streaming broadcast. Please take advantage of this opportunity to see a
report on a project that was a decade in the making and let us know what
you think.
Historical Jesus

Meeting of the IBR Jesus Group
For the past 10 years, members if IBR (Institute for Biblical Research) who specialize in historical Jesus research and Gospel studies have met to discuss essays written by group members. The focus has been upon 12 key events in the life of Jesus and their significance. These are the twelve we've examined, and the scholar who provided the essay are as follows:

The Scandal of Evangelical Politics (or How Would Jesus Vote?)

A new on-line resource for key university debates
"Jesus of Nazareth: How Historians Can Know Him and Why It Matters" is my newly posted article on the website created by the Christ on Campus Initiative of the Carl F. H. Henry Center for Theological Understanding at Trinity International University in Deerfield, Illinois. It is a substantive 15,000 word article on the topic, the equivalent to a medium-size booklet but still easily readable in a short period of time.

Eastertide Implications of the Resurrection
During this Easter season, I was drawn to consider three very different books regarding the resurrection of Jesus. Each purports to examine (from an historical perspective) Jesus’ death and the claims in the New Testament of his resurrection. Yet importantly, each proceeds further to draw implications from the historical study for life in the present world.
