    This podcast portrays a very logical, well reasoned argument for the existence and informed belief in the Christian God. It is entertaining as well as very cogent philosophical and historical commentary of the Christian faith.

    Worth listening!

  • Best of the Best

    J. Warner Wallace is personable, thoughtful, logical and does his homework.

    He and his son are apologists and teachers who are challenging, informative and relevant to defending and promoting the Christian faith.

  • Religious Experience as Evidence

    Excellent cover of an important topic. I spent the first 15 years of my Christian walk as one who accepted the “revelations” of others at face value. Now I am a Christian skeptic (though not one who is skeptical of Christianity). If one comes to me saying, “God told me…) I need more than their word to trust their message. I believe that is a safe position. God is a rational Being.

    Life changing. Incredibly thought provoking. Being a podcast from an ex-atheist and seeing his perspective from both sides of the spectrum + his intelligence on how to make a case for Christianity. 20/10- by far my favorite Christian podcast.
