American Founding, Christian Apologetics, Christian faith, Christianity, Divine providence, Dr. Frank Turek, Eric Metaxas, George Washington, morality, philosophy, Podcast, religion, theology
George Washington is one of the most recognizable names in American history. But before the presidency, the monuments, and the dollar bill, he was a military leader carrying the weight of a revolution that could easily have failed. This week, Eric Metaxas joins Frank to discuss his new book, ‘Revolution: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World‘, and why understanding Washington means understanding far more than battlefield strategy. Their conversation traces the faith, character, political philosophy, and providential moments that helped shape the American Revolution and the nation that followed. Frank and Eric tackle questions like: Why is George Washington so central to the story of the American Revolution? Why is Eric’s new book titled ‘Revolution’ and not ‘The American Revolution’? Why does liberty need…

Genderbread Person Part 2: Gender Expression (And maybe how we got to where we are now?)

Apologetics, Christianity, cultural apologetics, gender and sexuality, Genderbread Person, Gospel, Hillary Ferrer, identity, Legislating Morality, Culture & Politics, MamaBearApologetics
In our previous blog, we introduced you to the Genderbread curriculum, a teaching guide that tells kids as young as kindergarten how to think of sex and gender as a really confusing, multi-variable continuum where the two are mostly unrelated to each other. While I want to give parents the tools for how to think through and discuss these topics with their kids, today we are going to take a bit of a historical detour. Why? Because sometimes the key to understanding and fixing where we went wrong is to identify how we got there in the first place. What were the causal factors that might have contributed? When we identify those, we can hopefully avoid repeating the mistakes of the past and return to a healthier approach. In today’s blog, that…

The Bible: A Book of “Stories” or Historical Accounts? with Dinesh D’Souza

Archaeological Discoveries, Bible Evidence, Biblical Archaeology, Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Dinesh D’Souza, Dr. Frank Turek, morality, philosophy, Podcast, religion, The Stones Cry Out, theology
For centuries, skeptics have argued that parts of the Bible are legend, exaggeration, or history written long after the fact. But what happens when archaeologists start finding the names, places, civilizations, and events recorded in Scripture–do those same skeptics ever change their minds? This week, author, flimmaker, and scholar, Dinesh D’Souza, joins Frank to reveal what sparked his fascination with biblical archaeology and inspired his new book, ‘The Stones Cry Out‘. Together, they trace the archaeological evidence through the biblical timeline, from the world of Abraham and ancient Israel to King David, the New Testament, and discoveries involving people who once existed only on the pages of Scripture. During their conversation, Frank and Dinesh investigate questions like: What first got Dinesh interested in biblical archaeology, and what’s so special about…

6 Reasons Why It’s OK to Judge

Apologetics, Christianity, Discernment, FreeThinkingMinistries.com, judging, Judgmentalism, Peter Rasor, The5MinuteThinker, theology, Theology and Christian Apologetics
“Hey, stop judging me! You can’t judge me and my beliefs!” How many times have we heard something like this? The implication of such an exclamation is clear: someone’s personal beliefs about religion or morality are off limits—they cannot be discerned to be right or wrong. Beliefs are subjective and thus true for some and not others. Such a sentiment fences off one’s beliefs from being analyzed and weighed for validity. But is it true that we should not judge others’ beliefs? Are religious and moral beliefs really just personal opinions? I suggest we all ought to judge people and their beliefs, and it’s o.k. Really. Here are six reasons why. A real world exists For one thing, a real world exists outside one’s own perceptions. If you disagree, just…
