  • What is the story of everything

    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

  • Is the Bible Hate Speech (3 days ago) Q&A.

    In referencing only so called Black NBA players, you missed several White NBA players (Gordon Hayward (fraud), Mike Miller (Conduct), Chris Anderson (Drugs). In all fairness, to avoid causing your audience to believe “Its the Blacks” which are the ones committing most of the crimes.

  • Good theology, bad archaeology

    I want to start this review by saying that am largely in agreement with Frank Turek when it comes to theology and politics. But whenever he tries to tackle biblical archaeology (or Egyptology) it’s always awful. I say this as a Christian who is working on a PhD in biblical archaeology. Turek only consults Titus Kennedy and his colleagues, who are only a niche group of biblicists who hold to fringe views and are far from the best that Christian archaeologists have to offer. There are better sourc... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

How a University Turned Jesus Into an Oppressor — One Professor's Fight Against DEI with Dr. Owen Anderson
Q: What would you recommend parents do when their children are going to state universities with a perceived hostile climate toward Christian perspectives?
Be proactive: ensure your children have a solid Christian education, understand basic doctrine, and develop a personal faith that can withstand intellectual challenges; also, consider schools with strong debate platforms and concrete policies that encourage open dialogue.
Messianic Jew Reveals: Are Christians REALLY Being Persecuted in Israel? with Jeff Morgan
Q: Is there state persecution of Christians in Israel?
No, the guest argues there is broad freedom to worship and evangelize in Israel, with occasional hostility that is not state-sponsored persecution.
What If You Don’t Feel Saved? Plus More Q&A
Q: For parents worried about their children online, how should they guard against harmful content without overly restricting them?
Start early, engage in open conversations, and balance protection with education about critical issues like gender, sexuality, and religion; being a safe, trusted resource matters more than blanket bans.
What If You Don’t Feel Saved? Plus More Q&A
Q: How should a Christian think about political involvement given Jesus' statement that His kingdom is not of this world?
Being a faithful Christian and influencing laws can coexist; Christians are ambassadors in every sphere, and responsible civic engagement can reflect the heavenly kingdom.
What If You Don’t Feel Saved? Plus More Q&A
Q: Grant, if you don't have feelings, is belief in Jesus still real, and does belief require emotion?
Belief that Jesus is real can be distinct from emotional experience; faith involves a decision of will, not just emotion, so you can be genuinely saved without constant feelings.
