Special Event – Conversation with Dr. Ben Witherington and Dr. Steve Walton: Mark Lanier, 04/19/26

What does it really take to understand the New Testament? Two of the world’s leading biblical scholars join Mark for a wide-ranging conversation that will deepen your faith and sharpen your reading of Scripture.

In this episode, Mark sits down with Dr. Ben Witherington III (Asbury Seminary) — America’s most prolific New Testament scholar — and Dr. Steve Walton, one of the world’s foremost experts on the Book of Acts. Together, they pull back the curtain on what New Testament scholarship actually involves, why the manuscripts matter, and how to read the Bible with greater understanding and confidence.

Topics covered:

How each scholar came to faith and found their calling

What most Christians don’t know about how the New Testament was copied and preserved

Is the Book of Acts a model for the church today — or just history?

The overlooked verse in Acts 2 that reveals a sky-high view of Jesus from the very beginning

Why “Son of Man” is one of Jesus’ boldest claims

The real meaning of Sola Scriptura — and how it’s been misunderstood

Why context changes everything (featuring Tim Tebow and Philippians 4)

Their final word to Christians in a contentious age

Whether you’re a lifelong Bible reader or just beginning to explore the New Testament, this conversation will leave you wanting to dig deeper.
