Does the multiplicity of religions and their cultural-rootedness show that religions are just human inventions? Are religions just examples of wish fulfillment? Did humans invent religion as an emotional crutch? 

Many think that science has disproven God, or at least shown that He is superfluous. Nothing could be further from the case. I show how science cannot, even in principle, disprove God's existence. I also examine whether science has truly been a...

In today's episode I cover two objections: (1) Divine omniscience is incompatible with human freedom; (2) A Person without a body is impossible. 

This episode is in honor of Charlie Kirk and his legacy. 

I address the nature of the problem (it's more emotional than intellectual), and then focus on two key objections: (1) Hell is contrary to God’s love; (2) Hell is contrary to God’s nature (eternal nature of hell).  

Many consider the doctrine of hell to be the best reason for rejecting the God of Christianity. Can we reconcile the doctrine of hell with the loving, merciful, and just God of the Christian faith? Yes, we can. In this episode I cover the Bibli...

I address three objections in this episode:1. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence (and theists don't have it)2. No one can know if God exists (so theists are just blowing smoke)3. It is impossible to falsify...

I round out my discussion on possible reasons God seems hidden to unbelievers, and then explain why one of those reasons is not because too much evidence would violate people's free will. I end by explaining some possible reasons that God feels...

God has plenty of critics, and His critics raise numerous objections against Him.  So I’m beginning a new series that will answer God’s critics, starting with their objection that God has not provided enough evidence to convince rational p...

We often hear it said that the rich should pay their fair share in taxes. Actually, they’re paying more than their fair share already. It’s the non-rich who are paying too little. I also make the case for trickle-down economics and why property...

Capitalism is the natural economic system, meaning it's what people do naturally until and unless they are constrained to do otherwise by the State. In this episode, I argue for the moral and practical superiority of capitalism. It is not perfe...

Economic theories have both a moral foundation and moral implications. As such, Christians ought to critically evaluate economic theory. I contend that socialism is a morally evil and ideologically naïve economic philosophy that has failed ever...

In this miscellany episode, I address:Justin Welby's recent comments as to why he changed his view on homosex and same-sex relationshipsWho is authorized to baptize people, and where should baptisms take place?What...

In recent days, N. T. Wright made some remarks on the morality of abortion and the necessity of believing in the bodily resurrection of Jesus. Regarding abortion, he essentially articulated the view that early abortions are morally acceptable, ...

I demonstrate that while Jesus was God incarnate, He functioned as an ordinary human being, which meant that He was anointed by the Holy Spirit for ministry. To equip His followers to continue His ministry after His ascension, Jesus transferred...

Jesus’ ascension into heaven not only signaled a major transition of Jesus’ ministry, but also a major transition for His disciples. It meant their training was over, and now it was time to pick up Jesus’ mantle and carry on His ministry. In th...

I finished up my discussion of the significance of Jesus' ascension, arguing that it was when Jesus was fully glorified, and it includes a promise of His return to Earth. Then, I reviewed five things Jesus is doing right now in heaven:1....

We don't talk much about Jesus' ascension into heaven, but historically, this was always recognized as a significant event in Jesus' life. And it is! I discuss the practical and theological significance of the ascension.

In this final episode on the resurrection, look at some of the NT promises regarding our own future resurrection from the dead, explore what our resurrection body will be like, and explain the theological and practical implications of the gener...

I share some post-Easter thoughts (including a “pet the peeve” segment) and begin a discussion on our own future resurrection from the dead. 

In this final episode on the Shroud of Turin, I talk about art based on the shroud, reasons to doubt the Shroud is authentic, and where the Shroud shows up in the historical record. 

I look at various attempts to recreate the Shroud image through naturalistic means before moving on to other ways we can know the Shroud is older than what the carbon dating suggests. 

I discuss how the image on the shroud was made, as well as the age of the Shroud and the infamous C-14 dating from 1988.

What is the evidence that the Shroud of Turin is the real burial cloth of Jesus and bears His crucified image? In this episode I begin to cover 17 points of evidence that point to authenticity.
