I really enjoyed this conversation with C. J. Cornthwaite, now available on YouTube.
We talked about early Christianity in its ancient Mediterranean contexts, how historians approach figures like Jesus and Paul, and why paying attention to literary and historical framing matters for understanding these texts responsibly. I’m especially grateful to C. J. for such a thoughtful, wide‑ranging exchange and for creating space for nuance rather than easy answers.
Always a pleasure!
