I’m joined by Dr. Michael Peterson, Dr. Tim Pawl, and Dr. Ben Brammell to discuss their book "Jesus and the Genome: The Intersection of Christology and Biology."
*In the video, I call Tim Pawl a “theologian”, but some theologians may object since he is not properly credentialed in the guild. It would have been better for me to call him a ”Christian philosopher” since he is a Christian who works in a philosophy program. My apologies for the mistaken label.
