Attention everybody! N.T. Wright is our last old dude with a beard!
N.T. Wright (who is still living) has just retired as the Bishop of Durham, England. He is a widely known theologian and biblical scholar. Unlike our previous old dudes with beards, we can actually hear N.T. Wright speak instead of having to read boring passages from super-old books.
Below is a link to an interview that N.T. Wright had with Stephen Colbert. I would encourage you to watch it. If you are not familiar with Stephen Colbert, please note that he is a comedian and satirical news pundit. He is not being rude to Bishop Wright, that is simply his persona on the show.
