Should the Church and its believers have confidence in the reliability of Jesus found in the Gospels? 

Dr. McKnight tackles this question and more for followers to be confident of the person of Jesus as described in the Gospels.  When we correctly study Jesus and his life in light of faith the result is the deepest possible understanding about Jesus.  If the Kingdom is going to take root now, then we need to seriously pursue this study of Jesus.
