 Is there scientific proof of the soul? And if science is all about what can be measured, how do we explain things like consciousness, free will, and near-death experiences? This week, we’ll explore one of the most profound questions of human existence: are we just matter, or something more? Joining Frank in this eye-opening podcast episode is Dr. Michael Egnor, a practicing neurosurgeon, neuroscientist, and Professor of Neurosurgery at Stony Brook University. In his new book, ‘The Immortal Mind: A Neurosurgeon’s Case for the Existence of the Soul‘, co-authored with Denise O’Leary, Dr. Egnor draws from over 7,000 brain surgeries and decades of experience to challenge the popular materialist view of the human person. Together, Frank and Michael will tackle questions like: How did a spiritual experience involving his…

afterlife, Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, Dr. Gary Habermas, Jesus, morality, Naturalistic Alternatives, NDE, philosophy, Podcast, religion, Resurrection, theology
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…

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…

What happens when a Christian psychiatrist wants to marry a “spiritual” Richard Dawkins atheist—and then a medical crisis changes everything? When a fun trip to Hawaii turned into a life-threatening medical emergency involving 17 doctors, multiple organ failures, and a medically induced coma, all hope seemed lost. But what happened next was nothing short of miraculous! Join Frank as he sits down with Garrett & Aja Halweg, a married couple that formed a powerful union against all odds! Tune in as they share their story of Garrett’s brush with death, Aja’s testimony of becoming a Christian, and how both of these events ultimately led them to become powerful ambassadors for Christ (and appear on Animal Planet)!

Is the United States of America a product of divine intervention or mere coincidence? Frank welcomes Patterns of Evidence filmmaker, Tim Mahoney, on the program to discuss his exciting new docu-drama, ‘The American Miracle‘, a film that dives into some of the most astonishing and unexplainable events in America’s birth and rise to prosperity and power. During their conversation, Frank and Tim will answer questions like: What are some of the hard-to-believe events that allowed the Americans to win the Revolutionary war? 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…

Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, Farmers, morality, philosophy, Podcast, religion, Simon Brace, South Africa, theology, USAID
Why are white farmers being murdered in South Africa, and why does the media ignore or deny it? Is colonization the biggest threat to the country with one of the highest murder rates in the world, or is there a different issue that politicians and policy makers need to bring to the table? Frank sits down with Simon Brace, National Director of Ratio Christi South Africa, to expose how Marxist ideology, CRT, and postmodern thinking have taken root in universities and are reshaping the soul of the nation. Together, Frank and Simon tackle pressing questions like: What happened when Shane’s uncle (a farmer) was murdered in 2007? What are the political parties in South Africa and how did the country become so vulnerable to Marxism and socialism? What’s happening at…

Philosophy Disguised as Science

2. Does God Exist?, 3. Are Miracles Possible?, age of the earth, Apologetics, Christianity, FreeThinkingMInistries, Gospel, Intelligent Design, naturalism, Origin Science, Phil Bair, philosophy, Philosophy of Science, science, scientism
One of the basic principles that atheistic scientists live by is that science is based on evidence and religion is based on faith. I scarcely have to provide examples of atheistic scientists telling us that for something to be scientific, it must be evidence-based, and it must rely on the time-honored methods of scientific inquiry. Nor do I need to provide examples of them telling us there is no scientific evidence for the existence of God or miracles, and that all religious doctrine is faith-based. Theism, we are told, is based on faith with no objective or valid (which, of course, means scientific) evidence to support it. Even a cursory reading of the publications of the [relevant] atheists will yield example after example of both of these claims. Science, we are…
