Witness: Behind Luke’s Story

December 18th, 2007 by Steve Bowbrick

Ernie Rea makes grown-up, enquiring religious programmes for Radio 4. Speaking as a Godless atheist (worse: a Catholic Godless atheist), I’ve found his stuff to be very useful over the years in forming a view of religious belief. He’s presenting a five-part series putting top 1st Century gospel writer Luke into his historic context. The first part’s excellent: animated by a handful of the kind of articulate, questioning academics that make you glad to be alive in a post-enlightenment culture (although it is a bit cold out at the moment). I’ll try to grab all five of these programmes and put them here in this entry: they’ll add up to something really useful (part one, part two, part three, part four, part five).
