Spurred by recent political and cultural events surrounding President Trump’s first 100 days in office and comments made by Vice President J.D. Vance during a recent interview about protecting the interest of American citizens, Frank reminds listeners of the doctrine of “Ordered Loves”.

Remembering Rush with David Limbaugh

Christian Apologetics, Christianity, conservatives, David Limbaugh, Dr. Frank Turek, morality, philosophy, Podcast, religion, The Rush Limbaugh Show, theology
Are you missing ‘The Rush Limbaugh Show’? You’re not alone! Rush didn’t just comment on the news–he inspired millions, entertained countless listeners, and was a refuge for conservatives during some of the most turbulent times in recent history. But what else made Rush such a towering figure in conservative media? Who better to answer that question than someone who knew him best—his brother! This week, New York Times best-selling author David Limbaugh joins Frank to celebrate Rush’s incredible legacy, reflect on his faith journey up until his passing in 2021, and discuss how David’s own dive into apologetics and Scripture led him to Christ. Together, they’ll tackle questions like: Why did so many people disagree with Rush–and why might that actually be a compliment? What made Rush a masterful broadcaster and sharp political commentator? What role did faith play…

Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Dr. Erwin Lutzer, Dr. Frank Turek, Gospel, morality, papacy, philosophy, Podcast, religion, Roman Catholicism, Social justice, theology
Why does the papacy exist in Roman Catholicism? What did the recent death of Pope Francis reveal about his legacy? And why do so many modern liberals misunderstand the true role of the Pope—treating him more like a soft-spoken “social worker with a Mr. Rogers personality” than a defender of sound doctrine? This week, Frank sits down with the one and only Dr. Erwin Lutzer to talk about the sobering state of the world, the growing animosity towards objective truth, and why Christians should avoid the temptation to compromise as the world drifts further into confusion, political unrest, and chaos (mixed in with a dad joke or two!). During their conversation, Frank and Erwin will answer questions like: What’s the first duty of a pope and what should the cardinals focus on…

John Lennox Greatest Hits: Can Science Explain Everything?

Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, faith, John Lennox, morality, philosophy, Podcast, religion, science, theology
Is the rigorous pursuit of scientific knowledge compatible with a sincere faith in God? One of the greatest myths regarding God and science is that science has somehow disproven God. But the exact opposite is closer to the truth. If science has disproven anything, it has disproven atheism. How can that be? The brilliant, humble, and always well-spoken, Dr. John Lennox, President of The Oxford Centre for Christian Apologetics, joins Frank for a deep and wide-ranging conversation about the relationship between faith and science. From science and philosophy to personal testimony and practical wisdom, this conversation explores just a handful of the many books Dr. Lennox has written over the years, and why he believes Christianity is worth standing up for—no matter the cost. During their discussion, they tackle questions like: How did an Oxford mathematician come to…

What is irreducible complexity and is it consistent with the atheistic worldview? How are digital distractions drawing us away from God? Do you have a question for…

What is a worldview, and how does it shape everything you believe and do? This week, Dr. Brady Blevins, Senior Apologist at Watchman Fellowship, joins Frank to talk about his brand new course, ‘Conversations with the Faiths: Worldviews‘, which explores the four major groups of worldviews and equips Christians to evangelize those caught in false ideologies and protect Christian churches against modern heresy.

Last week, Frank introduced three compelling reasons to believe in the resurrection, including embarrassing details and eyewitness testimony. In this midweek episode, he jumps back into more archaeological discoveries that include names of people involved in the death and crucifixion of Jesus and how the excruciating deaths of the eyewitnesses offer powerful evidence that they weren’t lying as well. He also answers questions like: Did any of the apostles recant their eyewitness testimony and is it possible that they were hallucinating? Were the apostles motivated to invent the resurrection story and should their testimony be dismissed because they were Christians? Is martyrdom also evidence that Islam is true? What does Spiderman have to do with the reliability of the New Testament? Is the New Testament just a work of historical…

Bill Federer, Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Crusades, Dr. Frank Turek, inquisitions, Islamic, morality, Muslim, philosophy, Podcast, religion, theology
What’s the real history behind the Inquisitions, what do they reveal about the Christian faith, and could history be repeating itself? A few weeks ago, we unpacked the truth about the history of the Crusades and how (despite some behavior not condoned by Christ) they were military responses to Muslim aggression and saved Europe from being conquered by Muslim invaders. Most Christians at the time didn’t know what the Bible taught. This week, the great Bill Federer returns to shed light on the rise of the first inquisitions, their lasting impact on both the Church and American history, and how these events connect to the biblical narrative. Join Frank and Bill as they tackle questions like: What are some of the key events surrounding the Spanish, Islamic, and Portuguese Inquisitions? What does Islam teach about…
