The Gospel of Bart Ehrman

Last night, Liz and I went to Boston College to hear a Internationally known, New York Time's best selling author speak. Let me hit the rewind button. We were suppose to go to Boston College but we found ourselves at Boston University! That was not fun, so after we finally found Boston College. We made it into our seats. If you know anything about Bart Ehrman you know that he is a religious studies professor at University of North Carolina who does not believe in God, Jesus or that the Bible is a reliable historical document. He has been on TV multiple times as a commentator for the Da Vinici Code, The Gospel of Judas, etc. Again, He does not believe in Jesus. He made some comments yesterday that pierced my believing heart. So when question and answer time came, I was going to unleash, but I held back. I did challenge him at the table he was selling his books which I bought two. We went back and forth a little. One thing I could says is he knows the Bible as well as its history among other things better than most people I have heard or know of. One of my life goals is to write a book, called, The Gospel of Bart Ehrman, I thought of that last night after this experience, to refute, rebuttal, challenge, and do whatever I can to show that the Bible is valid, reliable and trustworthy!
