Dogma Debate

Best-selling author and spiritual self help teacher, Derek Rydall, is in studio, and is challenged by David on his book: The Abundance Project: 40 Days to More Wealth, Health, Love, and Happiness. David reads through excerpts and challenges the spiritual ambiguous language of the self-help woo industry.

A pastor whose son is an atheist, joins David to discuss doubts, faith healers, and her own concerns with the Bible.

Paul Rimmer holds a PhD in Physics from The Ohio State University, and currently works at Cambridge studying abiogenesis (the origins of life). He's a Christian who supports Dogma Debate at patreon.com/davidcsmalley and has a unique take on where religion meets science.

Is it possible to prove the existence of God without using the Bible? And can David make it through a conversation about God without invoking scripture? Tom Peeler uses philosophy and logic-based arguments to make his case for God.

Chad Prather is a conservative Christian, known as the Political Cowboy, and gained popularity with his controversial in-truck videos on politics and faith. He sits down with David Smalley in Beverly Hills to discuss Creation, Evil, and evidence for God.
