During this Easter season, New Testament scholar and skeptic Bart Ehrman has been making headlines again. He just released his latest book Love Thy Stranger: How the Teachings of Jesus Transformed the Moral Conscience of the West. Last week, New York Times columnist Ross Douthat interviewed Ehrman on his podcast about his book and why he doesn't believe in God. Sarah Eekhoff Zylstra sat down with New Testament scholar Michael J. Kruger, one of Ehrman's former students, to talk about Ehrman's arguments.

“But God, being rich in mercy . . . made us alive together with Christ.” Nothing is more essential to Christianity than this truth from Ephesians 2:4–5. In this conversation recorded at TGC25, Ligon Duncan and Michael Lawrence explore the nature of Christian conversion, contrasting the historical trend in American Protestantism that reduced conversion to a personal decision with the biblical view: conversion is a divine work of God followed by human response through repentance and faith.
