2: Resurrection -
The Empty Tomb?
In recent decades many New Testament scholars have regarded the empty tomb as a late legend in the Gospel narrative. Ironically, some
Jewish scholars have argued that, however interpreted, the empty tomb tradition is one of the best authenticated in the New Testament.
In this second talk
Richard Harries challenges the sceptical scholar and explores the tradition of the empty tomb.

Explorers Extraordinary
The third of six programmes written by JOHN KEAY 3: Paddling for Christ with Narrator John Rowe
With John Rye and Brian Smith The unique approach of John MacGregor to the business of exploration was that he did it all in his own purpose-built canoe: it served both as his home and his means of transportation. He also, on his travels, distributed evangelical tracts. His climactic journey to explore the sources of the River Jordan brought him close to death: 'English one, Arabs many,' he cried as an Arab took aim with his rifle. But MacGregor survived to hold audiences spellbound with a dramatised account of his adventures.
