Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep. 2| Did Jesus Rise from the Dead?
Q: Why is Paul singled out as the best source of information about the resurrection, and what does he say about the nature of the resurrected body?
They argue Paul is the earliest and most crucial witness for the resurrection claims and that his writings in Philippians and 1 Corinthians describe a physical resurrection, using terms like 'body' and variants of 'anastasis' that imply a tangible, transformed bodily state rather than a purely spiritual appearance.
Ep. 2| Did Jesus Rise from the Dead?
Q: Do we have historical evidence to prove that Jesus actually lived, died on a cross, and appeared to the disciples as risen?
The guests outline a set of four core facts they consider with the strongest historical traction: Jesus' death by crucifixion, post-resurrection appearances experienced by the disciples, transformed lives among the followers, and Paul's dramatic conversion based on a personal encounter; they argue these facts collectively pose a robust challenge to naturalistic explanations.
Reasons to Believe | One-on-One with Dr. Hugh Ross
Q: What can we expect from the James Webb Space Telescope in terms of insights relevant to intelligent design or the origin of the universe?
He discusses early images, the beauty and limitations of JWST data, and how it fits within a broader framework of evidential support for the Christian worldview.
Reasons to Believe | One-on-One with Dr. Hugh Ross
Q: So Hugh, tell us a little bit about what you do then at your ministry, Reasons to Believe, and how people can connect to your resources.
Dr. Ross explains his role as president emeritus, the emphasis on apologetics that leads to evangelism, and points listeners to ongoing writings, books, and online resources through Reasons to Believe.
Ep. 1 | Did Jesus Literally Rise from the Dead?
Q: Why is burial considered an important corroborating fact in the discussion?
Burial is important because it provides a tangible, corroborated link to Jesus' death in Jerusalem and serves as a basis for the early followers' belief in his resurrection, reinforcing the sequence of events from death to post-mortem appearances across independent sources.
