The Nazareth to Nicaea vodcast discusses the historical Jesus, the Christ of Faith, and everything in between. We look at the many texts and traditions, the stories and artifacts, the heroes and heretics of the christological controversies. We cover the debates, the doubts, and the dissenters about all things related to Jesus and the early church.

This episode examines the topic of “Jesus as Others Saw Him,” or what we might call "Christology from the Side," looking at the various ways that Jesus would have been perceived by contemporaries, including:

Prophet
Seer
Sage
Rabbi
Exorcist
Miracle Worker
Healer
