Those who are apathetic to Christianity often have an “I don’t know, and I don’t care” attitude. What’s the best approach to engage in conversation with them without being a nuisance? In this post-Memorial Day midweek podcast episode, Frank interacts with questions from listeners regarding the best Bible translation, gender dysphoria, and witnessing to those who are hostile or uninterested in God.  He also touches on the topic of when war is necessary in order to restore peace and prevent evil people from overrunning the innocent, and how it relates to the famous command that Jesus gave us, “Love your neighbor as yourself.” To…

What Does it Mean That “God Won’t Let You Down?”

3. Are Miracles Possible?, cultural apologetics, does God always heal, existential problem of evil, God won't let you down, Melissa Dougherty, Problem of Evil, problem of suffering, Progressive Christianity, Suffering, Theology and Christian Apologetics
We often hear in popular Christian songs and from pulpits that “God is never gonna let me down!” or “God hasn’t failed me yet!” Besides the tragedy of grammar (I mean, how does God not fail you yet?), what does that mean? What does the Bible actually say about this? Does God actually make all things possible for you? What does it mean when people say that He won’t fail you (yet) or let you down? What DOESN’T it mean? First, I want to say what it isn’t. This does not mean that we expect or demand God to do what we think He should do.

Cultural, emotional, and volitional obstacles often stand in the way of belief for skeptics, even when they are presented with reasonable arguments. How can we address those obstacles to move the skeptic towards faith in Christ? In this special edition ENCORE podcast episode, Frank interviews world renowned pastor and best-selling author, , who recently passed away from pancreatic cancer. Recorded back in 2016, Dr. Keller discusses his book ‘Making Sense of God: An Invitation to the Skeptical’, which includes essential truths that are still relevant for both Christians and skeptics today. This is not your typical apologetics book, because it does more than provide factual evidence for the…

Do you just give in because it’s easier than rocking the boat? The same people who say they are fighting for justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI) often punish or intimidate those who commit the thought crime of disagreeing with transgender ideology (or homosexual behavior) even though these beliefs have NOTHING to do with workplace productivity. And really, why are we even talking about in the first place?! In this midweek episode, Frank shares what happened when he got fired from his corporate job and gives viewers advice on how they can respectfully…
