Shaking Christianity With Elliott Smith
Looking between the lines of Church history and the New Testament.
The narrative that Christianity is based on includes assumptions that are easy to miss, assumptions that are also fundamental premises.
Like the idea that this religion is well connected with the man we all know as Jesus.
This podcast puts that narrative into straight forward terms, and applies critical thinking to see if it makes sense.
Premise: it's supposed to make sense.
And if it doesn't, in behind the Church's story there might be a cohesive, credible story that does make sense.
Christianity is open for critique

8) Acts of the Spotlight Part 1
Tracing the belief system of Christianity back in time, how do we get from Antioch to Jerusalem ? It’s about what people were thinking. There’s a group of people in Jerusalem who need to have believed pretty much the same things that people were believing in Antioch.
