===Gospel differences===

Licona’s present research concerns why there are differences in the Gospels. Like the majority of contemporary scholars, Licona views the Gospels as belonging to the genre of ancient biography and contends they are best interpreted with this in mind, since ancient biographies were written with slightly different rules than those used with modern biographies. Licona’s research focuses on identifying biographical devices employed by [[Plutarch]] and asking whether these can account for the differences one observes when comparing stories about Jesus that appear in two or more of the canonical Gospels.<ref>{{cite web |title= Why Are There Differences in the Gospels | publisher = Google | format = You tube | type = video |url= https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vYfSf9NgeOQ |accessdate= 29 June 2014}}</ref>

===Matthew 27 controversy===

In a passage in his 2010 book, ''The Resurrection of Jesus: A New Historiographical Approach'', Licona questioned the interpretation of the story of the resurrection of the saints in [[Matthew 27]], and suggested the possibility that it might be apocalyptic imagery.<ref>{{cite journal |title= A Roundtable Discussion with Michael Licona on The Resurrection of Jesus: A New Historiographical Approach |journal= Southeastern Theological Review|date=2012 |volume= 3|issue=1|pages=71–98 | format = [[Portable document format|PDF]] |url= http://www.paulcopan.com/articles/pdf/Roundtable_Discussion-Michael_Licona-The_Resurrection_of_Jesus.pdf |accessdate= 28 August 2014}}</ref> This led to controversy with fellow Evangelical scholars [[Norman Geisler]] and [[Albert Mohler]], who both accused Licona of denying the full inerrancy of the Bible in general and the gospel narratives in particular.<ref>{{Citation | last = Geisler | first = Norman | title = Mike Licona inerrancy worse | url = http://normangeisler.com/mike-licona-on-inerrancy-its-worse-than-we-originally-thought/}}.</ref> Licona maintained that adjusting an interpretation on a text is not a denial of inerrancy. In the course of events, Licona resigned in 2011 from his position as research professor at [[Southern Evangelical Seminary]] and as apologetics coordinator for the North American Mission Board (NAMB).<ref>{{Citation | title = Interpretation sparks Theology debate | newspaper = Christianity today | date = Nov 2011 | url = http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2011/november/interpretation-sparks-theology-debate.html}}.</ref> Other Evangelical scholars such as [[William Lane Craig]], [[J.P. Moreland]], and [[Gary Habermas]] voiced their support for Licona by signing an open letter to Geisler.<ref>{{Citation | date = Sep 2011 | title = Michael Licona response to Norm Geisler | format = [[World wide web]] log | publisher = Reclaiming the mind | type = press release | url = http://www.reclaimingthemind.org/blog/2011/09/press-release-michael-licona-response-to-norm-geisler/}}.</ref> In a round table discussion on the issue, [[Craig Blomberg]] urged that another educational institute of similar prestige offer him a teaching role.<ref>{{cite web |title= A Roundtable discussion with Michael Licona | format = PDF | publisher = Risen Jesus |url= http://www.risenjesus.com/images/stories/pdfs/a%20roundtable%20discussion%20with%20michael%20licona%20on%20the%20resurrection%20of%20jesus.pdf |accessdate= 29 June 2014}}</ref> Licona was hired shortly afterward by [[Houston Baptist University]].<ref>{{cite news |last= Erin|first=Roach |title= HBU's Licona addresses Bible's 'contradictions' |accessdate= 15 April 2014|date= Feb 13, 2013}}</ref>

In the course of the controversy over the raised saints in the Gospel of Matthew, Evangelicals such as [[Norman Geisler]] and [[Albert Mohler]] have questioned whether Licona is moving away from his evangelical views and is headed in a similar path traveled by the [[agnostic]] New Testament scholar [[Bart Ehrman]].<ref>{{cite news |last = Mohler |first =Albert |title= Biblical Inerrancy and the Licona Controversy|url= http://www.christianpost.com/news/biblical-inerrancy-and-the-licona-controversy-55591/ |accessdate= 29 June 2014 |agency= The Christian Post}}</ref> Licona’s approach seems to provide fodder for his critics. While asserting his belief in the divine authority of the Bible and even its inerrancy, he claims he cannot presuppose these beliefs while engaged in historical research. He also claims the doctrine of [[biblical inerrancy]] is not a doctrine fundamental to the Christian faith. In a radio exchange with Ehrman, Licona said that if Jesus actually [[Resurrection of Jesus|rose from the dead]], Christianity is true even if it were also true that some things in the Bible were not.<ref>{{cite web|title= Bart Ehrman & Mike Licona Discuss Decisions | publisher = Risen Jesus |url= http://www.risenjesus.com/bart-ehrman-mike-licona-discuss-decisions |accessdate= 29 June 2014}}</ref> Licona noted what he saw as several problems with the argument for inerrancy provided by Norman Geisler.<ref>{{cite web |title=On Chicago's Muddy Waters |publisher = Risen Jesus | url= http://www.risenjesus.com/chicagos-muddy-waters |accessdate= 29 June 2014}}</ref>
