Thank you for all the things you do
I’ve learn from Frank and many of his guests. However, since Charlie passed,Frank seems to be having more guests who are more political and less Christian. While the Bible should inform political views and it seems Frank has had that focus in the past, it feels as if he’s been flirting with turning this into a political podcast instead of apologetics
Becoming my favorite podcast. Thank you, Frank.
Answers here. He covers facts, logic, reasoning, experts… so enlightening. See for yourself.
Clearly laid out for science and non science people. This was interesting and easy to follow. Not preachy and used science to prove the Biblical science. Loved it
