The Horrors of Euthanasia and the Problem of Suffering

2. Does God Exist?, Apologetics, bioethics, Christian Worldview, Christianity, euthanasia, Gospel, meaning of life, meaninglessness, problem of suffering, Secularism, Theology and Christian Apologetics, Thomas Moller, www.FreeThinkingministries
As I’m writing this blog, on March 26, 2016, a young woman by the name of Noelia Castillo Ramos is being euthanized in Spain.[i] Unfortunately, this is nothing new in our Western society. Medically assisted suicide has been legal in Canada for almost 10 years.[ii] Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Colombia, Cuba, Ecuador, Austria, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, and the United States—yes, even the USA in some states—have legalized medically assisted suicide to some degree.[iii] You may wonder, as I did, what circumstances allow for assistance in suicide? In the United States, the law states that only mentally competent and terminally ill patients, whose illness will kill them within six months, allows for assisted suicide. It is fairly similar in Australia and New Zealand. Despite how extreme…

From Extreme Depression to Street Preacher: How God Saved His Life with Bryce Crawford

Bryce Crawford, Christian Apologetics, christian evangelism, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, finding purpose, hope in Christ, morality, philosophy, Podcast, religion, street preaching, theology, Youth Ministry
How does a suicidal 17-year-old battling anxiety, depression, and doubts about God’s existence, become the founder of his own ministry and one of today’s most influential young evangelists five years later? Since 2024, Bryce Crawford has already reached 2 billion people through digital media and is filling venues around the country at just 22-years old. But Bryce isn’t interested in building a platform for himself. Instead, he’s using his influence to reach a generation searching for truth, purpose, and hope in Christ—even when it means stepping into environments where rejection, ridicule, and hostility are almost guaranteed. Together, Frank and Bryce answer questions like: What life-changing moment happened when Bryce was in eighth grade and sent him into a deep spiral of depression? What was the desperate prayer that completely changed…

God the Artist: What You Never Knew About David & Goliath

1 samuel 17, bible meaning, Biblical truth, Christian Apologetics, Christianity, david goliath, Dr. Frank Turek, morality, philosophy, Podcast, religion, theology
“God can slay the giants in your life!” Is that REALLY the moral of the story when it comes to the infamous historical account of David and Goliath? Get ready as Frank peels back the curtain and reveals the hidden meaning behind the Bible’s most famous showdown in 1 Samuel 17. Tune is as he digs into the history, archaeology, and related Bible verses from this remarkable victory while answering questions like: What is biblical typology, what are some examples, and why is it important? Does archaeology correlate with the biblical accounts of Goliath and the existence of giants? How does David’s role as Israel’s champion point to Jesus? If David points to Jesus, to whom is Goliath pointing? Why did David take Goliath’s head to Jerusalem? What is the…

Abortion Versus Sacrificial Living

abortion, Apologetics, Christianity, Gospel, John Ferrer, Legislating Morality, Culture & Politics, Matthew 16:24-25, pro-choice, pro-life, Take up your cross, www.AbortionMuseum.org
“Then Jesus said to His disciples, ‘If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me. For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.’” Matthew 16:24-25, NASB Abortion isn’t just a surgical procedure. It’s not just an action, a choice, or a policy. It’s also a culture. Abortion-choice culture is a range of institutions and actions driven by a specific set of ideas about women, sex, motherhood, children, family, and liberty. Somewhere packed inside that culture is a set of expectations about what “normal” women and families should be like. Revolutionary Motherhood   Rachel Jankovic, a mother of seven children, is decidedly abnormal. She writes: “Everywhere you go, people want to…

Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Divine providence, Dr. Frank Turek, Eric Metaxas, morality, philosophy, Podcast, religion, Revolution, theology, US history
There’s never been a nation like the United States of America. But do you know the wild and true story of how it came into existence? On our 250th anniversary, the hunger for America’s story has never been greater, and who better to tell it than historian and radio host Eric Metaxas, author of seven New York Times bestsellers including the ground-breaking biography of Dietrich Bonhoeffer? This week, Eric joins Frank to discuss his brand-new 600+ page book, ‘Revolution: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World‘, which explores in-depth the divine providence and heroic stories behind the founding of the United States. Together, Eric and Frank answer questions like: Why is the book titled ‘Revolution’ and not ‘The American Revolution’? What is American exceptionalism? What makes…

Did God Give Adam and Eve Enough Information to Make an “Informed Decision”?

Adam, Apologetics, Christianity, Eve, free will, garden of eden, Gospel, Hillary Ferrer, MamaBearApologetics.com, morality, original sin, Theology and Christian Apologetics
In my previous post, I partially answered the question, “Why did God create the tree in the first place?” This question is a big one for little minds to wrap themselves around. For a child, creating the tree in the first place sounds like God was just asking for trouble. For the hardened skeptic, it sounds like God tricked us into needing a Savior by creating the means for us to sin in the first place. I argued in my previous post that this objection does not hold true when you examine it in the context of a loving relationship. For both love and relationship to exist, there must be free-will. For free-will to exist, there must be legitimate means to choose otherwise. God made it as easy as possible for…

When “Too Christian” Becomes a Metric: A Case Study in Academic Double Standards

academia, anti-Christian bias, Apologetics, Christianity, DrOwenAnderson.substack.com, Gospel, Legislating Morality, Culture & Politics, Owen Anderson, performance review, persecution
Although I am a tenured full professor of philosophy at ASU, I am still required to complete an annual review of my work each year (as the name suggests). At most universities, faculty evaluations are supposed to be straightforward. At Arizona State University, where I teach, we use an objective rubric. Faculty are evaluated annually in three categories: research, teaching, and service. Each activity earns points, and those points correspond to a score from 1 to 5. A 3 means you met expectations. A 1 or 2 means you’ll need to draw up a plan for change with the school’s director and then prove you succeeded in the next annual review. A 4 means you exceeded expectations and a 5 means you achieved excellence. It is very nice to have…
