In this episode, a conversation with Dr. Bart Ehrman about his How Jesus Became God, and the evangelical response book How God Became Jesus.

Dr. Ehrman has given other interviews in which he gives an overview of his project in the book. So skipping that, we jump right into some of his more controversial conclusions, and how he arrived at them.

We also discuss the currently popular "christology of divine identity," and the evangelical response book mentioned above.

In next week's episode, we discuss monotheism and the gospel of John.
