Evidence and Answers

Both Jesus and Muhammad have shaped the beliefs of billions of people throughout history. But when we compare their chronicles, their claims, their conduct, and the confirmation of their message, the contrast is dramatic. Did they proclaim the same message about God, or do their teachings point in completely different directions? Join us on Evidence and Answers as we examine the lives and teachings of these two leaders and discover which one truly confirms his claim to the truth.

The conflict in the Middle East reminds us that behind global tensions lies a powerful ideology. Islam teaches that Muhammad is the final and greatest prophet of God, while the Bible teaches that Jesus is far more than a prophet – He is the divine Son of God. This week on Evidence and Answers, we examine the historical records, claims, character, and teachings of Jesus and Muhammad. When you look carefully at the evidence, the differences are striking – and they lead to a crucial question: which one truly speaks the truth? Join Pat and discover the only reasonable choice.

When you see a breathtaking sunset, stand on a majestic mountaintop, or hear a beautiful piece of music, something deep within you is stirred. Why does beauty move us so powerfully? Is beauty simply a human preference, or does it point to something greater? Join us on Evidence and Answers as we explore how beauty may actually point us to the Creator Himself.
