How did things like third-trimester abortions, infanticide, euthanasia, critical race theory, transgender ideology, and drag queen story hour become embedded in modern American culture? In an age where children are exposed to pornographic material in their own school libraries and concerned parents are labeled as “domestic terrorists”, where can we find the root cause of the underlying worldview that’s currently dominating our society? And how did we end up here so quickly? The answers may shock you! In what may be one of the most controversial and revelatory podcast episodes to date, Frank interviews pro-life speaker Seth Gruber, author of the book and soon-to-be released documentary called ‘The 1916 Project‘, which explores how abortion became the linchpin of secularism and how it’s destroying western civilization. As founder of the fastest-growing pro-life non-profit organization in America, The…

Why the Best Explanation Can Be a Miracle

3. Are Miracles Possible?, 4. Is the NT True?, abductive reasoning, Al Serrato, Apologetics, Christianity, Cumulative Case, Evidence, forensics, historical apologetics, J. Warner Wallace, miracles, New Testament, theology
By Al Serrato We all intuitively seek the best explanation for a set of facts or circumstances. It’s called abductive reasoning. Detectives make use of this method of reasoning when endeavoring to solve a crime; they put the pieces together so that a picture of what occurred emerges in sufficient detail to have confidence that it is true. Parents do it when they notice that a freshly baked pie has a piece missing and little Johnny has crumbs on his fingers and fruit staining his lips. Perfect knowledge is not required to know with sufficient certainty what occurred. Abductive Reasoning in Christian Apologetics As it relates to apologetics, abductive reasoning is a formal way of supporting the case for the validity of Christian truth claims. Though there are dozens of…

AFR, Apologetics, app, Bible, Chip Bennett, Christianity, cross examined, faith, google play, Jesus Christ, Jesus resurrection, Podcast, Radio, Spotify, stitcher
Where can we find the concept of the third day being played out in the Old Testament? Esther, Isaac, Daniel, Jonah and even Goliath point to the life and resurrection of Jesus Christ. But how do the stories surrounding these Old Testament figures relate to events in the New Testament that occurred both before and after the resurrection of Jesus? Once you see all of these connections, you won’t be able to unsee them! Last week, podcast listeners were blown away by Dr. Chip Bennett‘s exposé of how Jesus is revealed in the Old Testament. And for this midweek podcast, he returns to unpack significant parallels that every Bible-believing Christian needs to know about! By exploring the richness of interpreting the Scriptures through the literary hermeneutic, Chip will explore key passages from the Old…

What Philosophy Is, And Why You Can’t Avoid It

1. Does Truth Exist?, Apologetics, Christian Mind, Christianity, critical thinking, Epistemology, Gospel, Intellect, J. Brian Huffling, logic, metaphysics, philosophy
Many Christians believe that philosophy is a pagan discipline practiced either by ivory tower professors or Starbucks hippies. This belief has led some to object to the relevance of philosophy, as either they believe only a few can do it, or that it deals with such weird and abstract issues that it is a waste of time. Many Christian theologians object that philosophy is rooted in paganism, and thus has no place in Christian theology. After explaining what philosophy is, it should become clear that not only do these objections fail, but philosophy is unavoidable. For the Love of Wisdom… ‘Philosophy’ literally means “love (phil) of wisdom (sophia).” It is the quest for knowledge, truth, and how to live the good (moral) life. Fields of Philosophy There are several branches…
