In this episode of the podcast, N.T. Wright discusses the forces that formed him into the scholar, priest, and writer he is today: his early influences, his calling, and what he gave up to pursue his writing.

He also shares his views on spiritual warfare and the problem of Christians demonizing their enemies.
