Christ in historical sources and the Gospels, the personality of Pilate of Pontius Pilate, the identity of Pilate's wife, Claudia Procula, the saints of many Eastern Christian churches, Schmidt's path from Pilate's unbelief to faith, Pilate's conversion, and Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt's own conversion to Christianity - these and other issues will be discussed in the program.
