In this conversation Dr. Nijay K. Gupta, professor of New Testament at Northern Seminary and 2020 Downey Lecturer at Ambrose University, explores some key aspects of what made first-century Christian believers odd, even dangerous to many in society, but also attractive and appealing to some. Is there inspiration in their strange religion that can give us a fresh vision for Christianity today? Dr. Gupta is interviewed by Dr. Beth Stovell, Associate Professor of Old Testament at Ambrose University.
