Interview with N.T. Wright

Entertaining but also informative interview of N.T. Wright by Colbert about what "heaven" is going to be like based on Wright's new book Surprised by Hope. Some intriguing thoughts. Let me know what you think (probably having not read the book).

Odd interview for Colbert. It was kind of hard getting the gist of it through the banter, but I think I get it. People who die before the Second Coming go to heaven, and then we are all to inhabit new earth. There was also something about us resurrecting things. That part wasn't clear. I like N.T. Wright. His "For Everyone" commentaries are really good. I wouldn't mind reading that one. Have you read it?

I agree that the banter made it hard. Here is a link from ABC that is easier to follow:

I have not read his commentaries, just some of his other stuff in passing. The New Testament guys in the various programs always have good things to say.
