For episode 034...
We talk about if Jesus was a historical person -- and even moreso - was He not only a person, but God.

Aaron is the Brand Manager of The Gospel Project, author of multiple books and two documentaries on Charles Spurgeon and Martin Luther. He, his wife, Emily, and their three kids, moved to Nashville about 18 months ago from Canada.
With historical evidence - both inside the Biblical text and outside it - we can certainly confirm that Jesus was a person who lived in a certain time of history from the town of Nazareth. What must be taken on faith is the rest of the story: that He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, took on the wrath of God for sin on the cross, died, was resurrected, and ascended to heaven. Indeed, it is the greatest story ever told but is also foolishness to those who don't believe. It seems crazy! But it's true. And we can help our kids be ready for the questions they may have or be asked that revolve around Jesus' existence, Personhood, and ultimately deity.
