Resurrection expert Dr. Gary Habermas returns to discuss Volume 3 of his magnum opus, ‘On the Resurrection: Scholarly Perspectives‘, which includes 500+ scholarly treatments related to the resurrection. From far-left critics to conservative theologians, this collective volume provides a strong overview of everything that has ever been written about the resurrection and includes over 8,000 footnotes! During their conversation, Frank and Gary answer questions like: Why do critical scholars deny miracles but still affirm that Jesus was a miracle worker? Why does Gary think many atheists don’t want to say “I do” to Jesus? Is biblical inerrancy a requirement for the Gospel and what about apparent Bible contradictions? What are the 3 things you need in order for Christianity to be true? How do you respond to those who say…

If God exists and Jesus rose from the dead, then Christianity is true. Case closed! However, there are still those who offer alternative explanations for the empty tomb despite the evidence for the resurrection. What are these theories and do they withstand critical analysis? This week, Frank sits down with Dr. Gary Habermas, the world’s leading resurrection scholar to discuss, ‘On the Resurrection: Refutations‘, the second volume of his magnum opus–a massive 4-volume project nearly 40 years in the making. From second-century texts that seem to challenge the resurrection to modern skeptical scholars like Bart Ehrman, Gary will uncover why naturalistic explanations for the empty tomb simply don’t hold up. Tune in as Frank and Gary answer questions like: Who was David Hume and why do so many modern atheists…

The Miracles in Acts, and Their Evidential Value

3. Are Miracles Possible?, 4. Is the NT True?, Apologetics, Book of Acts, Christianity, Early Church, Evidence for God, Gospel, historical apologetics, Jonathan McLatchie, JonathanMclatchie.com, miracles, natural, supernatural
The book of Acts recounts various miracles performed by Paul and the other apostles, as well as the deacons Stephen and Philip. If it can be shown that these miracle reports substantially represent the testimony of these individuals, then this is an important aspect of the testimony that must be accounted for. For reasons I have discussed at length previously, there is strong reason to believe that the apostles sincerely believed what they claimed. As William Paley puts it, “there is satisfactory evidence that many professing to be original witnesses of the Christian miracles, passed their lives in labours, dangers, and sufferings, voluntarily undergone in attestation of the accounts which they delivered, and solely in consequence of their belief of those accounts; and that they also submitted, from the same motives,…

The Nature and Purpose of Miracles

3. Are Miracles Possible?, Apologetics, Brian Huffling, BrianHuffling.com, Christianity, Classical Theism, Gospel, miracles, nature, Norman Geisler, providence, science
When I was born the doctors said I was blind. In fact, I have a letter from the doctor saying that I was blind and that my grandmother (my grandparents reared me) simply would not accept that. She prayed and had her church pray. She had them anoint me with oil. One day I reached for a toy and my grandmother realized I could see. Today I have bad vision but I can see. Was this a miracle? What Miracles Are        Miracles are by definition a supernatural act of God where he intervenes in nature to alter an otherwise natural course of events. By ‘supernatural’ is meant an act that transcends or is not a part of nature. It is other than nature. The only being other than nature is…

Have You Succumbed to Stockholm Syndrome? with Dr. John G. West

American culture, anti-Christian, Christian Apologetics, Christian leaders, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, Dr. John G. West, morality, philosophy, Podcast, religion, Stockholm Syndrome, theology
What if American culture isn’t collapsing because of crusading secularists? What if it’s failing because many leading Christians identify more with secular elites than with their fellow believers? Those are the provocative questions posed by ‘Stockholm Syndrome Christianity‘, a new book which exposes how influential Christian leaders are siding with their anti-Christian cultural captors on everything from biblical authority and science to sex, race, and religious liberty. This week, Frank sits down with Dr. John G. West—author and Vice President of the Discovery Institute—to uncover why some of the most influential Christian voices seem to be echoing the values of secular culture rather than confronting them. Why are professing believers going soft on issues that Scripture speaks clearly about? In this eye-opening conversation, Frank and John tackle some uncomfortable but necessary…

The Role of Intelligent Design in UNFORGETTING GOD: An Interview with Barry Arrington about his new book

Barry Arrington is a friend, colleague, and top-flight attorney who is deeply interested in how worldviews impact our society. He and I collaborated for close to two decades on the intelligent design blog UncommonDescent.com, which I started in 2005, which Barry managed for more than a decade as a 501(c)(3), and which we finally archived in 2023. In its first decade, Uncommon Descent was the premier blog for advancing the intelligent design movement, though in more recent years other blogs surpassed it in that role, notably EvolutionNews.org. On May 6, 2025, Barry published with Inkwell Press a fascinating new book titled Unforgetting God: Defeating Culture-Destroying Materialism Through Christian Renewal (available at Amazon here). Barry’s perspective as a Christian, intelligent design proponent, and seasoned litigator (he has brought cases before the US Supreme Court)…

What’s the difference between divine providence and a miracle? Did Benjamin Franklin and the rest of the Founding Fathers believe in deism? How did George Washington become such a great leader? Did the founders really believe that slaves were worth 3/5 of a person? How does the film counter…
