Advent Week One….John Dominic Crossan….Homebrewed Christianity…..Your Questions…..Audio Goodness. We are real excited to have Crossan back at the HBC podcast and this conversation is an awesome way to kick off our Advent podcast series. In his first visit Crossan discussed his book ‘God and Empire‘ and this time we focus on your questions about his recent book ‘The First Christmas.’ On top of being grateful for Crossan’s return we want to thank him doubely, no Tripp-ely, for agreeing to answer your questions. Hopefully we will be able to do more interviews with this format in the future.
