To my great surprise, Adam Gopnik discussed The Origins of Early Christian Literature– as well as the recent interest in the study of the New Testament and early Christian literature in public media– in a piece titled "We're Still Not Done With Jesus" : https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2025/03/31/miracles-and-wonder-elaine-pagels-book-review-heretic-catherine-nixey
I am a fan of Gopnik, so this was particularly fun for me. I also think he's noting an interesting, recent trend with this move towards more biblical and religious literacy through various social media channels. As we continue to become even more hyper selective and less institutional in our consumption of news, information, scholarship, etc it's important to discuss the issues of access and options.
