The Chosen–Season Five

Last updated on: October 19, 2025 at 8:13 am By Ben Witherington

As students of the New Testament know, the Gospels are Passion Narratives with a long introduction, by which I mean that a third or more of the whole Gospel story telling focuses on the last week of Jesus’ life.

Be Thou My Vision

Last updated on: October 13, 2025 at 9:38 pm By Ben Witherington

This medieval hymn, a Celtic hymn originally, is the oldest hymn in the Methodist hymn book, and this is one of the most beautiful versions done of it with great harmony. When I was doing the funeral for my great Uncle Robert Herring who passed away already beyond 100, he had been cared for just outside High Point N.C. by French nuns. When they saw I had picked this hymn, they were thrilled for they knew it as a French... Read more

Church newsletters and bulletins share nothing in common with the Bible. They are full of gaffs, unintended bloopers, misspellings, and more. Below is a sample of the kind of mayhem they can create in a quiet church…. Read more

A Helpful, Detailed Review of the NRSVue

Last updated on: September 27, 2025 at 9:47 am By Ben Witherington

https://www.bing.com/videos/riverview/relatedvideo?q=reviews%20of%20the%20NRSVue&mid=D2C2854B8CAABDB50E88D2C2854B8CAABDB50E88&ajaxhist=0 I whole-heartedly agree with this detailed review by James-Michael Smith.
