Based on the February 2010 Greer-Heard Point-Counterpoint forum at New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary John Dominic Crossan and Ben Witherington III explore points of agreement and disagreement on the message of Jesus. A diverse set of scholars provide substantive essays for further reading on various facets of the message of Jesus. The Greer Heard Point-Counterpoint series takes pride in presenting a fair and balanced case for both sides of complex issues, and in providing the tools for students and scholars to form their own conclusions.
Robert B. Stewart is associate professor of philosophy and theology at New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary, where he holds the Greer-Heard Chair of Faith and Culture and directs the annual Greer-Heard Point-Counterpoint Forum.
