Does the Bible have contradictions that undermine it's reliability? This is a big question apologists have dealt with since the 2nd century. In Jesus, Contradicted, Dr. Michael Licona argues that the genre of ancient biography, to which the Gospels belong, actually allows biographers to be flexible in how they report events, construct a narrative, and make an argument. We go in-depth on the unique approach in his book and consider some of the BIG objections raised against it. Enjoy!
