Myth Made Fact Part1 with Louis Markos

What would you say to someone who says Jesus was a myth?  Is the Bible's message like myths and legends?  What if it is like them?  What are people looking for in myths?

Come listen as Dan and Dr. Markos discuss how the gospel is the fulfillment of the best myths.  Dr. Louis Markos says that Christianity is the fulfillment of all the great myths of the past.  Viewed this way, "myth" does not mean "falsehood," but rather a cultural narrative rooted in the truth of who we are as created in the image of God.

Louis Markos is a Professor of English at Houston Baptist University and holds the Robert H. Ray Chair in Humanities.  He speaks widely on ancient Greece and Rome, Lewis and Tolkien, and apologetics and classical education.  He has written the book, "The Myth Made Fact: Reading Greek and Roman Mythology through Christian Eyes," published in 2020.
