Today we’re joined by Dr. Neil Shenvi, chemist, author, and Christian apologist, to discuss his book "Why Believe: A Reasoned Approach to Christianity" and to talk all things apologetics. Dr. Shenvi came to Christ while working for his Ph.D. in theoretical chemistry at UC Berkeley after a campus ministry worker handed him Christian literature. We talk about how important it is for Christians to display Christ in their lives in these ways. Then, we scratch the surface on some answers to a few difficult, age-old theological questions. We discuss the false statement that “we’re not that bad," and Dr. Shenvi explains why the gospel itself is the strongest evidence for why Christianity is actually true.

Today we take a break from the news cycle to celebrate 1,000 episodes of "Relatable"! We explain how Allie got started in media and eventually made her way to BlazeTV. Then, we play some voicemails from the audience to hear your thoughts on the show and how it may have changed your perspectives! We also meet the Relatable crew: Bri, Lily, Vince, and George, who produce, edit, and direct the show. We also play a game of "Would You Rather?" and take a look at some paleoart drawings of animals that may be further proof that no one knows what dinosaurs looked like.

Today, we discuss the United Methodist Church's recent decision to allow the ordination of self-proclaimed homosexuals as well as same-sex "marriage." The United Methodist Church has struggled with this issue for the past few years and even strengthened its position on traditional marriage in 2019. So, what changed? Plus, the Met Gala was last night, and it featured some stunning and ... interesting fashion choices for us to review.

Ep 998 | Methodists Change Their Pronouns to Was/Were

Today, we sit down with Trent Horn from Catholic Answers to discuss the House's recent bill aimed at preventing anti-Semitism and some of the biggest differences between Catholic and Protestant theology. Is it anti-Semitic to say that the Jews killed Jesus? Why do Catholics pray to Mary and the saints? Why don't Catholics believe in sola scriptura? And how do Catholics and Protestants differ in their beliefs about salvation?

Ep 997 | Why Do Catholics Pray to Mary? | Guest: Trent Horn

Today, we're joined by Gabriel Finochio, cofounder of TheosU and host of "The Reactionary Christian," to discuss Christian nationalism, the church fathers, the attack of the secular Left, the importance of a Christian society, and why feminism has destroyed biblical womanhood for so many women. Is America a Christian country, and how should religion be structured into government, if at all? What actually IS "Christian nationalism"? What elements of our civilization should be conserved? What is the real danger of idolatry? And is feminism gender dysphoria?
