The Historical Jesus

What can we know about the historical Jesus of Nazareth? How and why does the life of the historic figure differ from competing (and contradictory) accounts in the New Testament? What can other sources tell us, including non-Christian accounts as well as gospels left out of the canon?

John Hamer of Toronto Centre Place will outline an overview of what can and cannot be known about the historical Jesus and will talk about the difference between the portrait painted by academic history, the portraits painted by scripture, and the experience of the divine Christ as understood by Christians.

A Q&A and discussion will follow the presentation. Please send your questions on the live chat.

Lecture topics include:
Historical Jesus of Nazareth
Christ myth theory
Source criticism
Textual criticism
Biblical studies
Historicity of Jesus
Quest for the historical Jesus
