James Kennedy enlists a band of scholars, theologians, and authors to fact check The Da Vinci Code in the new one-hour television documentary, The Da Vinci Delusion. The program airs May 13, 14 nationwide—just days before The Da Vinci Code movie debuts worldwide.

The roster of fact checkers includes Paul Maier, professor of ancient history at Western Michigan University; Darrell Bock, New Testament scholar at Dallas Theological Seminary; Kerby Anderson, president of Probe Ministries; Janet Parshall, host of Janet Parshall’s America; William Donohue, president of the Catholic League; Peter Jones, coauthor of Cracking Da Vinci’s Code; Erwin Lutzer, author of The Da Vinci Deception; Sandra Miesel, Catholic journalist and medievalist; Gary Habermas, author of The Historical Jesus; and Lee Strobel, coauthor of Exploring the Da Vinci Code. “Although The Da Vinci Code is a murder mystery novel, it claims to be based on facts, and those so-called facts attack the very heart of Christianity,” said Dr. Kennedy, the author of more than 65 books and one of America’s most-watched television ministers. The Da Vinci Delusion is a production of Coral Ridge Ministries, which produced the award-winning Who Is This Jesus, a prime-time response to ABC’s Search for Jesus.
