Can we trust the New Testament? Was Jesus a real person? The four Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John are all really old, how do we know if what we have today is what was originally written? What about some of these other gospels - the gospel of Thomas or the gospel of Peter?

Henry Smith talks with Dr. Craig Evans about these questions, and his book "Jesus and the Manuscripts." Dr. Evans is a biblical scholar, author, speaker, and a professor at Houston Baptist University.
