Hey everyone! We are back for another round of internal contradictions! we are talking about family punishments, does God tempt us, the power of God, turning the other cheek, and more. I hope you enjoy the episode. Make sure to leave a review if you are!

If you have heard anything from Christian critics it probably includes claims that the Bible can't be trusted because it contains internal contradictions. Today we are getting very specific and outlining why atheists think these are contradictions and why Christians think they are not. I hope you enjoy the episode!

Is reading the Bible everyday a struggle for anyone else? It takes a lot of spiritual discipline to prioritize reading God's word everyday and applying it to our lives. In this episode we discuss what scripture says about reading the Bible, what it does for us and to us, and practical tips for reading the Bible. I hope you enjoy the episode!

Today we are talking about what happened to the disciples and Paul after they started spreading the gospel once Jesus ascended into heaven. Spoiler alert... most were martyred. This is some of the most convincing evidence I have heard that the resurrection actually occurred (especially since last week we reviewed evidence that what they saw was not a mass hallucination). The disciples had major life changes, had courage that they didn't have before encountering Jesus, and were willing to die in the pursuit of sharing the Gospel. If it were all a hoax, they would not have been willing to die for their lie. Enjoy the episode and make sure to rate the podcast and subscribe :)

In this week's episode we are talking though evidence of Jesus' resurrection. We cover the behavior of the apostles after they see Jesus risen, the fact that women were the first to find Jesus, and much more! It's an interesting discussion and I hope it helps to bolster your faith! Enjoy!

In today's episode, we are talking about worry and anxiety as a Christian. We know we need to be battling it, but how? Our whole world seems to be geared towards making us anxious and fearful, but God wants us to be free from that! In this episode we go over how to take our thoughts captive, how we cast our cares on the Lord, and I talk about my experience with anxiety. Enjoy the episode!

What do you believe about Jesus? There are a lot of claims that he was just a great moral teacher but not the Son of God. C.S. Lewis walks us through the "Liar, Lunatic, and Lord trilemma" and shows that claiming this is really an impossibility. Either Jesus is who He says He is, or He is not a great moral teacher. Come with me to explore the trilemma!
