    Paul Before King Agrippa: “Are You Trying to Make Me a Christian?” Paul and Agrippa Acts 25 & 26

    In this bonus episode of Ask NT Wright Anything, Tom Wright and Mike Bird turn to one of the most dramatic courtroom scenes in the book of Acts: Paul’s defence before King Agrippa II - the great grandson of Herod the Great. As Paul recounts his conversion story for the third time, the focus sharpens on a striking exchange - Festus declares Paul mad, while Agrippa quips, “Do you think you can persuade me to become a Christian so quickly?” Tom unpacks why this moment matters politically, theologically, and historically. Agrippa knows the prophets, understands Jewish hopes, and recognises the Jesus story. But what would it have meant for a king of the Jews to accept Paul’s gospel? The conversation explores Paul’s mission to the Gentiles, the clash of rival loyalties to Jesus and Caesar, and the tantalising “what if?” of Agrippa’s response. A rich reflection on power, persuasion, and the kingdom Paul proclaims. Support us: https://www.premierunbelievable.com/geolink/donate Got a question for Tom?

    Why doesn’t the Bible punish men for adultery?

    Why does the Old Testament sometimes appear to treat women unfairly in cases of adultery? What was the purpose of the Nazirite vow, and why would anyone choose it? And what does it really mean to say that Christ is “present” in the Eucharist?Today, N.T. Wright and Mike Bird dive in on Ask NT Wright Anything to answer your three challenging and deeply human questions about law, holiness, and sacrament. Tom explores how Israel’s legal codes functioned within their ancient social world, how Jesus radically reframes judgment and mercy, and why Christians no longer apply Old Testament penalties in the same way. He then reflects on the Nazirite vow as an ancient form of radical consecration, an Israelite counterpart to later monastic devotion. Throughout, Tom insists that Scripture must be read as a coherent story rather than isolated proof texts, and that Christian faith is shaped not by abstract theories but by lived practices: meals, vows, forgiveness, and embodied worship.SOCIAL LINKS: Twitter: https://twitter.com/unbelievablefeFacebook: / https://facebook.com/premierunbelievable Instagram: / https://instagram.com/premierunbelievable Tik Tok: / https://tiktok.com/@premier.unbelievable Support us: https://www.premierunbelievable.com/geolink/donateGot a question for Tom?

    Justice, Power, and Fear: Paul’s Trial Before Rome (Acts 24–25)

    In this bonus episode of Ask NT Wright Anything, Tom Wright and Mike Bird continue their deep dive into the Book of Acts, focusing on Acts chapters 24 and 25. The discussion explores Paul’s hearings before the Roman governors Felix and Festus, highlighting themes of justice, corruption, political expediency, and the early Christian understanding of law and authority. Tom Wright unpacks Paul’s bold proclamation of faith in Jesus the Messiah, his teaching on self-control and the coming judgement, and the striking parallels with John the Baptist before Herod. The episode also reflects on Paul’s appeal to Caesar, the role of resurrection in Christian witness, and what Acts teaches believers today about faith, government, and integrity under pressure.

    What was John the Baptist doing when he baptised Jews before Jesus’ ministry began?

    Do ordained ministers have “more” of the Holy Spirit than lay people? What exactly was John the Baptist doing when he baptised Jews before Jesus’ ministry began? And are the Thirty-Nine Articles still fit for purpose today? Tom Wright and Mike Bird tackle three questions that sit at the heart of church life, theology, and Christian identity in today's episode of Ask NT Wright Anything. Tom explains why ordination is not about spiritual hierarchy but authorised service, why the Holy Spirit belongs fully to the whole people of God, and how clergy exist to equip, not outrank, the church. He then situates John the Baptist firmly within Israel’s story of exile and hope, showing how baptism functioned as a powerful symbol of repentance and new Exodus rather than an early version of Christian conversion. Finally, Tom reflects candidly on the Thirty-Nine Articles of the Church of England: why they were written, what they were trying to hold together, and why many of their answers belong to 16th-century debates rather than today’s questions. Throughout the conversation, Tom calls the church back to Scripture as the supreme authority, urges humility toward our theological inheritance, and reminds us that reform is not rejection—but faithful listening across time.

  5. Is the God of the Old Testament a Problem? N.T. Wright On The Heresy That Won’t Die

    Is the God of the Old Testament a Problem? N.T. Wright On The Heresy That Won’t Die

    We’re launching a new occasional series for bonus listeners: N.T. Wright’s theological pet peeves starting with a mistake that just won’t die. In this punchy episode of Ask NT Wright Anything, Tom Wright and Mike Bird take on modern Marcionism: the quiet but widespread assumption that the God of the Old Testament is somehow different from the God revealed in Jesus. It’s rarely stated outright, but it shapes how many Christians read Scripture, talk about morality, and even understand grace. Drawing on Romans, Galatians, and the teaching of Jesus himself, Tom argues that tearing apart law and grace, Old and New Testaments, or Israel and the Church doesn’t solve theological problems, it creates them. Short, sharp, and unsettling in the best way, this episode invites us to rethink assumptions we didn’t even realise we held, and to suggest the next theological “pet peeve” Tom should tackle.

    Where is the Garden of Eden? NT Wright on Genesis, editing & authority

    Where is the Garden of Eden? What did Paul mean by our “earthly tent”? And does Genesis contain later edits, and if so, does that undermine Scripture?In this episode of Ask NT Wright Anything, Tom Wright and Mike Bird tackle three of the most frequently misunderstood biblical questions.Tom explains why Paul’s language in 2 Corinthians 5 isn’t Platonic escapism but robust resurrection hope; why the “tent” points both to the tabernacle and to our mortal bodies; and how the early Christians understood “what is kept in heaven” as something destined ultimately for earth.Next, they turn to the location of Eden, and Tom challenges the assumption that Genesis 2 must read like Google Maps. They explore how ancient narrative works, what editing does (and does not) mean for inspiration, and why Genesis 1–2 gives us two complementary windows into creation, not a modern-style chronology.If you’ve ever wondered whether Genesis has contradictions, whether Paul believed in an intermediate state, or whether Scripture’s “oddities” weaken its authority, this episode will steady the ground beneath your feet, and deepen your appreciation for the beauty, richness, and layered texture of the biblical story.Support us: https://www.premierunbelievable.com/geolink/donateGot a question for Tom?

  7. N.T. Wright on the Best and Worst Christmas Carols

    N.T. Wright on the Best and Worst Christmas Carols

    In this Christmas Day bonus episode of Ask NT Wright Anything Tom Wright delivers a theologian’s verdict on the best and worst Christmas hymns. Drawing on a lifetime of singing, teaching, and biblical scholarship, Tom explains to Mike Bird (who also has some pretty strong feelings about carols!) why some beloved carols powerfully proclaim the mystery of the Incarnation, while others slide into sentimentality or even quiet theological confusion. From the rich, creedal depth of O Come, All Ye Faithful to his famously sharp critique of the much-loved Away in a Manger. Tom shows how what we sing shapes what we believe about Jesus, heaven, and God’s future for the world. Along the way, he reflects on Advent expectancy, challenges “sweet but shallow” theology, and suggests why churches might need to rethink, or even rewrite, the words they sing at Christmas.

    Tom Holland vs the Nativity: NT Wright answers

    Was Jesus really born in Bethlehem, or did the gospel writers “invent” the story to fit prophecy? Did a Roman census ever force people to travel back to their ancestral towns? And what about Herod’s massacre of the innocents – pure theology, or plausible history?In this special Advent episode of Ask NT Wright Anything, Tom Wright and Mike Bird respond to challenges raised by historian Tom Holland (of The Rest Is History podcast) about the birth narratives of Jesus. Tom explains why ancient history is full of gaps, how new evidence has repeatedly vindicated biblical details once dismissed as “unhistorical,” and why we should be cautious about confidently declaring, “That could never have happened.”🎧 If you’ve ever wondered, “Did Luke get Christmas wrong?” or felt unsettled by historical objections to the nativity, this episode will help you think more clearly – without losing the wonder.
