What's coming up on the Deeper Waters Podcast? Let's dive into the Deeper Waters and find out!
Our podcast returns this Thursday and we have what I am sure is a favorite to you listeners out there returning to be on the show for the third time and that is Mike Licona. What are we going to be talking about? Good question. In fact, that is what we're talking about. Good questions. I've gone to private groups on the internet for awhile now announcing that this show would be coming up and gathering questions on the New Testament and the historical Jesus as I follow a cue from Justin Brierley and have a "Grill-a-Christian" format. This will be just like Mike getting done speaking somewhere and then random questions coming up and we'll see how he does. Now if you don't know who Mike Licona is, a brief description follows that is from his web site.

Now of course, some more skeptical listeners out there could be wondering if there might be some bias here. Mike is my father-in-law. Am I telling him the questions ahead of time? Nope. Not at all. I like to make things a challenge as much as I can and Mike and I can be competitive at times when we get together. (Watch us play Wii Sports sometime when we visit.) What will happen with the questions is I have them all written out and I will mix them up randomly and draw them out of the hat as it were so that I can't even tell anyone entirely before the show starts what questions Mike will be asked. That means no doubt that not every question will be answered, but we have two hours and we'll see what happens in that time and how Mike fares with me in the hot seat.
I think this will be an interview you will enjoy and if you've never been to an event like one where Mike speaks at, you'll get to see what it can be like and how people have to answer questions on the spot. If you're an aspiring apologist, I hope it will drive you to be even more prepared in all your studies so that if you find yourself in such a situation, you will be able to answer those who question you on the Christian faith.
Be watching your ITunes feed for this one!

I think this will be an interview you will enjoy and if you've never been to an event like one where Mike speaks at, you'll get to see what it can be like and how people have to answer questions on the spot.
