From time to time, Edward is interviewed live or in print concerning biblical subjects or other spiritual matters. We are pleased to bring you the following interviews. The first was video-recorded live. The other three were print interviews with national Christian magazines or e-magazines representing three entirely different portions of the universal church.
Biblical-Literacy Class Interview -- The Biblical Literacy Class is a 375-400 member adult Bible class at Champion Forest Baptist Church in Houston, Texas, taught by Edward's friend and employer, Mark Lanier. One Sunday morning in August 2009, Mark interviewed Edward about the Book of Hebrews and about Edward's new commentary, Hebrews: Ancient Encouragement for Believers Today.

Planet Preterist Interview -- Planet Preterist online journal interviewed Edward about his understanding of biblical teaching regarding the final end of the wicked, a viewpoint sometimes called "Conditional Immortality" (immortality is not natural to humans but will be God's gift to the saved) or "Annihilationism" (hell stands for the destruction of both body and soul forever).
