Is the Bible just a collection of ancient myths and fairy tales? Or did the people named on these ancient pages really walk the earth? Archaeologist and author Dr. Titus Kennedy returns to show us that history isn’t just written in books. It’s buried in the dirt! Listen (or watch!) closely as Frank and Titus investigate the “receipts” left behind by kings, queens, and commoners that demonstrate the Bible is documenting REAL history, not just parables. With Titus’ new book ‘Archaeology and the People of the Bible‘ as their guide, they tackle questions like: Who was Tiglath-Pileser III, and what does he teach us about interpreting the Bible correctly? How do the writings of Josephus and ancient Ugaritic epics validate the biblical text? What seals have been found with obscure…

Faith in Action

Apologetics, bellatorchristi.com, Christianity, Gospel, Theology and Christian Apologetics, Tim Woods
Each and every sermon we listen to, every teacher we hear, every Bible verse we read, and even the article you’re reading right now has only so much effect. We can listen and agree with what is being said. We can agree that the words we read hold truth. But then what? Do we give our “Amen” in agreement and swiftly move on? Do we skip the prayer and application process, hoping it will fill and meet our needs? Are we simply only hearing the Word? If we say we are faithful followers of Jesus Christ, are we living out that truth every day, or are we just listening? But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. (James 1:22 NKJV) When we truly trust in God,…

Why I Left Hollywood for Christianity with Comedian Rob Schneider

Hollywood is built on the promise of fame, money, and influence. But if that’s the “dream,” why does the glitz and glamour leave so many icons feeling hopeless and empty inside? You’ve seen Rob Schneider on SNL and in box-office hits like 50 First Dates, but you’ve never seen him like this. From his journey to faith, to his front-row seat to the “cancel culture” wars, Rob is pulling back the curtain on what it’s like to be a Christian in an industry that’s increasingly hostile to the Gospel. You’re going to laugh (it’s Rob Schneider, after all!), but you’ll also be challenged to think deeply about the cultural moment we’re living in right now. Together, Frank and Rob answer questions like: How did Rob get started in comedy and…

The Ultimate Kalam Cosmological Argument Resource List: 80+ Curated Picks from Top Philosophers and Apologists, Part 2

2. Does God Exist?, Apologetics, Arguments for God, Big Bang, Christianity, Cosmological Argument, First Cause, Gospel, Graham Oppy, Kalam, Miguel Rodriguez, SmartFaith.me, william lane craig
[Editor’s Note: this blog series was originally posted as a single blog. The section “Introduction to the Kalam” is repeated here in both entries, for context, for the reader.] Introduction to the Kalam The Kalam Cosmological Argument (KCA) is one of the most widely discussed arguments for the existence of God in contemporary philosophy and apologetics. It goes like this: Whatever begins to exist has a cause. The universe began to exist. Therefore, the universe has a cause. Though it sounds simple, the implications are profound. If the universe had a beginning—and beginnings require causes—then something (or Someone) beyond time, space, and matter must have brought it into being. The Kalam has sparked conversations among scientists, philosophers, theologians, and skeptics alike, making it a cornerstone of modern theistic argumentation. This post…

What Does the Bible REALLY Say About Israel? (And Why It Matters Now) with Pastor Robert Furrow

Biblical prophecy Israel, Christian Apologetics, Christian theology, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, Israel in the Bible, modern state of Israel, morality, philosophy, Podcast, religion, Robert Furrow, theology
Is the Church the “new Israel,” or does God still have unfinished business with Israel? Pastor Robert Furrow of Calvary Chapel Tucson joins Frank to explore key parts of Scripture that talk about Israel’s past, present, and future, and whether or not its modern state is even part of what the Bible is talking about. Tune in as they answer questions like: How did God prophesize the current nation of Israel? Why is Israel so central to biblical prophecy? When the Scriptures say “last days” what does that mean? What is the significance of Israel becoming a nation again in 1948? What area of land was originally promised to Israel? What is dispensationalism and is biblical? Is there a future for Israel? Will all of Israel be saved? Has Israel…
