Why Christianity?
Why I Believe God Entered History in Jesus Christ
Belief in God does not automatically lead to Christianity. This episode considers Christianity’s more particular claim: that God did not remain distant, but entered history in Jesus Christ. James looks at the resurrection, the earliest witnesses, the long story of Scripture, and the claims Jesus made about himself.

- Why does Christianity place so much weight on the resurrection?
- Can Jesus be reduced to a good moral teacher?
- What makes Christianity a claim about history rather than only private spirituality?
