AFR, Apologetics, app, Bible, Christianity, cross examined, faith, google play, Hedieh Miramadi, Islam, Jesus Christ, philosophy, Podcast, Politics, Radio, Spotify, stitcher
How do you express concerns about illegal immigration without sounding like a racist? And is it irrational to be Islamophobic? Speaking out against open border policies can get you canceled, but should that fear outweigh the risks of unvetted, undocumented immigrants flooding into the country? Is the real goal of unchecked immigration to weaken Christianity? If so, can Christians and Conservatives do anything in an attempt to sustain the infrastructure of America before it’s too late? Picking up right where they left off in the last podcast, Frank and Hedieh Mirahmadi continue their discussion about the potential destruction that the West is facing in light of mass immigration and the rise of radical Islam. How could America do a better job of vetting people from Muslim countries? Why is the far…

What is the Equality Act and what will be its negative implications on Christians and religious freedom? Why won’t price controls work? Where does the Harris administration stand when it comes to law enforcement and public safety? Is being compassionate the purpose of government?

For this special edition midweek podcast episode, Dr. Owen Anderson returns to expose more of what’s going on at Arizona State University and how it’s specifically singling out Christian and conservative faculty members. Last week, they talked about how Owen became the target of ASU when he was ordered to accept their DEI training and change the course syllabus for his introduction to Christianity course. In this episode, they discuss the infiltration of Marxism (and witchcraft!) that Dr. Anderson has personally witnessed during his time at the largest state college in the United States. How is the Honors College at ASU promoting witchcraft? How is Christianity the real enemy of people promoting this on campus? Why is cultural Marxism attractive to a lot of Christians and why is philosophy so important these…

Are Christian professors being discriminated against at public universities because of their faith? And when did it become unacceptable for Christians to teach students about the historic Christian worldview from a biblical perspective on a secular campus? Something strange is happening behind the scenes at Arizona State University and a tenured (Christ-following) professor is now choosing to fight back and speak out against the corruption taking place! This week, Dr. Owen Anderson, professor of philosophy and religious studies at Arizona State University, joins Frank on the podcast to share how he found himself at odds with the university, and what he’s doing to bring awareness to what appears to be a clear case of discrimination against Christians on campus. Does ASU have the right to enforce syllabus changes just because professor Anderson is a…

What’s the correlation between the soul, the brain, and the mind? Many Christians today struggle to grasp the concept of an immaterial soul and how it impacts us physically and mentally. For this midweek podcast, Frank sits down with Dr. Stan Wallace to discuss his book, ‘Have We Lost Our Minds?: Neuroscience, Neurotheology, the Soul, and Human Flourishing‘, which exposes the errors that even some Christians are making in their denial of the soul and challenges Christians to come to a sound understanding of how the soul functions in relation to the body. As the president and CEO of Global Scholars, Stan has made it his mission to equip Christian professors around the world to have a redemptive influence among their students and colleagues. Frank and Stan will answer questions like:…

What’s the best way to love your neighbor? Christians have a biblical responsibility to love their neighbors by being politically engaged, which is why we’re kicking off a series of very important podcast episodes this fall with the #1 goal of educating you on where each party stands on important cultural, moral, and economical issues. On today’s episode, Frank is joined by special two guests, Wintery Knight and Desert Rose, who have experienced firsthand the negative implications of what happens when a country loses sight of biblical values and goes totally off the rails. How can we prevent the same mistakes from happening here in America? They’ll answer questions like: What is socialism and was Jesus a socialist? Is a forced redistribution of wealth the answer to America’s problems? Does the Book of Acts…

Beware of People-Pleasing Christians – Plus Q&A

AFR, Apologetics, app, Bible, Christianity, cross examined, faith, google play, Jesus Christ, philosophy, Podcast, Politics, Radio, Spotify, stitcher, Tim Keller
We were made to be the “salt and light” of the world, but if you find yourself getting too much praise from the culture are you really living your life for Christ? Last week, Frank tackled the subject of calling out shepherds that we know are in the wrong (be it theological, political, etc.). For this midweek episode, he continues the conversation by citing an article by Bill Dembski which explores passages in the New Testament that get into the promise of persecution and the dangers of being liked too much by the world. Frank will also address listener questions on the topics of creation, including: Is the universe expanding AND contracting like an accordion? And how can we be confident that creation actually had a beginning? All this and more will be…

Is It Wrong for Christians to Call Out Shepherds?

AFR, Apologetics, app, Bible, Christianity, cross examined, faith, google play, Jesus Christ, philosophy, Podcast, Politics, Radio, Spotify, stitcher, Tim Keller
Should we criticize our fellow Christians? And when, if ever, is it appropriate to call out trusted pastors when they get something wrong? Contending for the faith can sometimes be seen as divisive, so how do you discern when to speak up and when to remain silent? Megan Basham’s new book, ‘Shepherds for Sale‘ continues to spark controversy and this week, some of the controversy is coming Frank’s way! In this podcast episode, Frank responds to an email from a pastor and loyal listener who took offense to Frank and Megan’s criticism of the late pastor (and one of Frank’s favorite preachers) Tim Keller in a previous podcast episode. During the discussion, Frank will answer questions like: Which issues should Christians publicly call out? Where did Tim Keller go wrong politically,…

Why Aren’t Christians Better People? + Politics Q&A

AFR, Apologetics, app, Bible, Christianity, cross examined, faith, google play, Jesus Christ, philosophy, Podcast, Politics, Radio, Spotify, stitcher
If Christianity is true, why aren’t Christians better people? Why are there so many hypocrites in the church? Why haven’t they been transformed by Christ? Skeptics often question how transformative Christianity truly is when they see Christians behaving badly. But is this a fair critique of the faith itself? When a musician plays Beethoven poorly, do you blame Beethoven? This week, Frank is diving into your listener questions! Tune in as he responds to an email from a concerned Christian husband whose wife is currently deconstructing her faith, due in part to Christian hypocrisy and “a lack of transformation among Christians as a whole.” During the episode, Frank will answer questions like: How did C.S. Lewis address the “Christians behave poorly” objection? Why is comparing the behavior of “Christians” to…
