Show Notes

Since I posted a bit on my book Jesus: Apocalyptic Prophet of the New Millennium, several people have asked me if I’ve ever written an evaluation of Bill O’Reilly’s blockbuster hit, Killing Jesus. It turns out, I did so, here on the blog, right after it came out in 2013. I call it a blockbuster because it was: it rose to become the #1 book (in the world!) on Amazon, and had a long run at the top of the New York Times bestseller list — staying on the list for a full 52 weeks!
