Thought I would throw up a link to a recent interview conducted by Ben Witherington with N.T. Wright. The interview concerns Wright’s Surprised by Hope. Surprised by Hope is already somewhat of a classic. It’s a natural sequel to Simply Christian. Surprised by Hope challenges the common view of “going to heaven when we die” with a resurrection/new creation schema. If you are new to Wright, these two books (in the right order) would be the best place to start before attempting to work through some of his more scholarly works. What makes the interview fascinating (at least to me) is that these are two of my favorite theologians and Witherington asks the questions that are on my mind. Also interesting is the discussion which follows the interview between Ben and a blog visitor named davie. Here is the link.
