A host reads through the Nicholas Kristoff interview of Tim Keller: whether the virgin birth is essential, whether the resurrection must be taken literally, and where that leaves a doubter — a Christian, a Jesus follower, or a secular Christian. Keller's answers are read in full, including his Greenpeace-boundary analogy, the women-as-first-eyewitnesses argument, N. T. Wright on the birth of the Christian movement, and his line that rejecting the resurrection or other Apostles' Creed beliefs puts one outside the boundary.
