Toxic Empathy | with Allie Beth Stuckey Plus Q&A

Allie Beth Stuckey, Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, morality, philosophy, Podcast, religion, theology
Why are so many Christians being led astray by statements like “abortion is healthcare,” “trans women are women,” and “love is love”? These catchy phrases have convinced some believers and conservatives to adopt views aligned with social justice movements—even on issues like illegal immigration. But do these ideas truly align with biblical truth, or are they carefully packaged lies that distort Christian values? This week, conservative commentator and Christian author, Allie Beth Stuckey joins Frank to talk about the inspiration behind her brand new book, ‘Toxic Empathy: How Progressives Exploit Christian Compassion‘, which explores real life examples of how compassion has been weaponized against Christians, ultimately shaming evangelicals into supporting and celebrating policies that violate the Christian worldview. During their conversation, Frank and Allie will answer questions like: What are the 5 main…

Silence Equals Consent: The Sin of Omission | with Bill Federer

Bill Federer, Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Donald Trump, Dr. Frank Turek, Kamala Harris, morality, philosophy, Podcast, Problem of Evil, religion, theology
Why do so many Christians find it acceptable to stay silent in the face of evil? The idea that politics are merely “worldly” and that disengaging from culture is the best path forward has deceived far too many Christians into falling in line with cultural norms. But if the Church continues to withdraw from what’s going on in the world, who’s going to be left in charge? This week, historian and bestselling author Bill Federer joins Frank to discuss his latest book, ‘Silence Equals Consent -The Sin of Omission: Speak Now or Forever Lose Your Freedom.‘ In this eye-opening episode, they dive deep into the Church’s history of political indifference and explore why now, more than ever, Christians must engage with the world to preserve (religious) freedom. Together, Frank and Bill tackle key questions,…

The Eclipse of God with | Dr. Erwin Lutzer

Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, Erwin Lutzer, morality, philosophy, Podcast, Problem of Evil, religion, theology
Is the American Church still shining as the light of Christ, or have we made too many compromises in the name of “tolerance” and “inclusion”? As darkness in our nation grows, it’s becoming clear that the faith of many has become cloudy and confused, leading to the rise of secularism and threats to the freedoms once rooted in the Christian worldview. Where are we headed, and what lessons from the past should serve as warnings for our future? This week, Frank sits down with the one and only Dr. Erwin Lutzer about his brand new book, ‘The Eclipse of God: Our Nation’s Disastrous Search for a More Inclusive Deity (and What We Must Do About It)‘, which explores how America is attempting to redefine God, replacing Him with one made in our image. Dr.…

Boy Swept Away by Floodwaters: Why Didn’t God Save Him? | with Dr. Clay Jones and Dan Hodges

Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Clay Jones, Dan Hodges, Dr. Frank Turek, morality, philosophy, Podcast, Problem of Evil, religion, theology
How could a good God allow such evil, pain, and suffering to take place in this world? And why doesn’t He intervene to save good people or young children when disaster strikes? The aftermath and utter devastation caused by Hurricane Helene has many questioning, “Where is God when things go wrong”? What is the best way to address these questions and how can we find God and meaning for life in the midst of these tragic events? Life has been especially hard for those in the western part of North Carolina since Hurricane Helene struck last week, leaving residents without access to food and water, and claiming the lives of countless victims due to unprecedented flash flooding and fallen debris. During this week’s podcast episode, Frank sits down with Dr. Clay…

Top 10 Philosophical Challenges Christian Students Face at Secular Universities | with Dr. Owen Anderson – Part 2

Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, Dr. Owen Anderson, philosophy, Podcast, religion, theology
Are secular universities intentionally shaping a generation of Marxists? Parents and students need to be aware of the social and political atmosphere that awaits them when they step foot on a college campus. How should Christian students respond when they encounter professors and peers pushing views that are in high opposition with their faith? Last week, Dr. Owen Anderson shared five key philosophical challenges Christian students will likely face during their college years. This week, he’s back with five more, breaking down the flaws in these worldviews, how they infiltrated universities, and how to defend Christianity against them. Are some professors secretly promoting Marxist ideas? Why is student activism at an all-time high and how are colleges preying on the 18-25 age group? Is logic being dismissed as a “white” concept? How are existentialism,…

Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, Dr. Owen Anderson, philosophy, Podcast, religion, theology
Every college student faces difficult situations, but Christian students at secular universities often encounter unique challenges designed to dismantle their faith. How can these students (and Christians everywhere) stay strong and defend their beliefs in environments that are hostile to their worldview? A few episodes ago, Frank sat down with Arizona State University Professor Dr. Owen Anderson, who is currently in litigation with the university due to discrimination against his Christian faith. This week, he’s back with an update and to share the 10 biggest philosophical challenges Christian students should prepare for in college. Together, Frank and Owen tackle questions like: Are Christian students being targeted by their professors? Is pragmatism the standard for truth? How should Bible-believing Christians understand the concept of true happiness? Why is it important for Christians to…

Why Did God Allow Stoning?

Apologetics, biblical ethics, Bobby Conway, Capital Punishment, Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Christianity Still Makes Sense, difficult passages, Gospel, Legislating Morality, Old Testament, Stoning, theology, Theology and Christian Apologetics
When it comes to Bible reading, some passages are more challenging than others. Such is the case with the stoning passages (see Leviticus 20:27; 24:16; Numbers 15:32-36; Deuteronomy 13:6-11; 21:18-21). These aren’t our go-to passages for morning devotionals. Personally, I can understand capital punishment, but stoning as a means to achieving it just seems so barbaric, cruel, and harsh, especially when the commandment is issued to parents to indict rebellious sons, as seen in Scripture: “If a man has a stubborn and rebellious son who will not obey the voice of his father or the voice of his mother, and, though they discipline him, will not listen to them, then his father and his mother shall take hold of him and bring him out to the elders of his city…

¿Deben los cristianos tener fe ciega? 

Apologetics, Atheism, Bible, Christian Apologetics, Español, Evangelism, faith, Levi Dade, The Rebelution
Por Levi Dade Hace unos meses, me senté con un íntimo amigo mío en una de las cabinas de la cafetería de nuestra universidad. Mi amigo, al que llamaré Tom, es ateo. Tom es un auténtico buscador de la verdad, y sería cristiano si considerara que el cristianismo es “completamente cierto”. Durante nuestra conversación, terminamos discutiendo el tema de la fe. Después de averiguar sus perspectivas del mundo y sus justificaciones para ellas, dijo algo que me sorprendió. “Al final del día, supongo que todos estamos obligados a tener fe en algo”. Quería que me aclarara lo que quería decir con esa afirmación, así que le respondí: “¿Quieres decir fe ciega?”. “Sí, supongo que es fe ciega”. La diferencia entre la fe y la fe ciega Presta atención a éstas…

Should Christians Have Blind Faith?

2. Does God Exist?, Blind Faith, Christian Apologetics, Defending Christianity, Difference between faith and blind faith, Doubts, Evidence, faith, Levi Dade, Questions about Christianity, Questions about God, reasons to believe, Theology and Christian Apologetics
By Levi Dade A few months ago, I sat with a close friend in one of the booths of our university’s coffee shop. My friend, whom I will call Tom, is an atheist. Tom is a genuine truth-seeker, and he would be a Christian if he thought Christianity was “actually true.” During our conversation, we found ourselves discussing the topic of faith. After probing his views of the world and his justifications for them, he said something that surprised me. “At the end of the day, I guess we all have to have faith in something.” I wanted clarity on what he meant by that statement, so I responded, “Do you mean blind faith?” “Yeah, I guess it is blind faith.” The Difference Between Faith and Blind Faith Notice something…

Extrabiblical Evidence for the Veracity of the Gospel History

4. Is the NT True?, Apologetics, Bible, Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Extrabiblical Evidence for the Gospel, Gospel, Historical documents, history, Jonathan McLatchie, New Testament, Skeptics, theology, Theology and Christian Apologetics
In a previous article, I reviewed several arguments that are typically raised in support of the historicity of Jesus but, upon closer inspection, turn out to be of extremely limited evidential value. In this article, I will discuss an approach to arguing from extrabiblical sources that I consider to be much more robust. Whereas in the previous article, I critiqued appeals to direct testimony to the historicity of Jesus (which, at best, only attest to the broad outlines of the gospel story), in this article I will consider incidental allusions in the gospels that are indirectly and undesignedly confirmed by extrabiblical secular sources. The data surveyed in the ensuing discussion are of varying evidential weights, though all are (in my assessment) significantly more probable on the hypothesis of historical reportage than on its falsehood. The case for…
