Same Story, Different Accounts: What Is the Synoptic "Problem"?

Matthew, Mark, and Luke tell the same story of Jesus—yet they do it with striking similarities and surprising differences. Why? In this episode, we introduce the Synoptic Problem: the study of how these three Gospels relate to each other, why they share so much content, and what sets them apart. We’ll break down the major theories, explain why it matters for understanding Scripture, and show how a deeper grasp of the Synoptics strengthens—not weakens—our confidence in the reliability of the New Testament.Support the showDr. Shah writes a personal letter every week — reflections on Scripture, faith, and living it out with clarity and purpose. GET THE LETTER If you enjoyed the show, please like and follow our Facebook and Instagram pages, and also subscribe to our YouTube channel.
