Evidence and Answers

“If God is good, why does He allow bad things to happen?”  “If everything God created was perfect, how did evil enter such a creation?” “If God knows all, why would be put the tree of knowledge in the Garden of Eden knowing Adam and Eve would disobey him?” Join Pat as he answers some of these questions and more difficult questions regarding the problem of evil.

On this episode of Evidence and Answers, we tackle one of the most challenging conversations parents and teachers face today—how to talk to children about sex and sexuality. Our guest is Elizabeth Urbanowicz, founder of Foundation Worldview, who has created a powerful new mini-series called The Talk: Made Easy to help parents introduce biblical truths to children ages 4–7. Join us as we explore how to equip the next generation with a strong Christian worldview in a culture filled with confusion.

Frank Turek shares insights on confronting today’s cultural ideologies with reasoned arguments for Christianity, especially on hostile campuses. He unpacks the moral argument for God, counters the evolutionary basis for morality, and offers practical steps for the church to influence both hearts and society more effectively.

In this interview, Christian apologist Frank Turek discusses the moral and cultural decline in America and why he believes much of the blame lies with the church’s failure to stand boldly for truth. He highlights how subjective feelings have replaced objective truth in schools and universities and stresses the importance of reclaiming moral clarity through a return to biblical foundations.

The problem of evil presents a challenge for all worldviews not just the Christian worldview. Pat Zukeran builds the case that it is only the Christian worldview that presents a reasonable answer and the only worldview that can provide a meaningful message of hope in a world filled with evil and suffering. Join Pat as he answers the question, “If God is good, why does He allow bad things to happen?”

Collective delusion occurs when the following conditions are present. There are individuals with a common belief but have a low education level, the group has a strong belief in the paranormal, and there is pressure to group conformity. Skeptics argue these conditions were present among the disciples of Christ and thus, collective delusion provides a viable explanation for the resurrection account of Jesus. Join Pat and fellow apologist Dr. Doug Potter as they examine the theory of collective delusion and see if it provides an adequate alternative explanation for the empty tomb of Christ.

In 1 Cor 3:6-8, Paul stated, “I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God made it grow. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth. He who plants and he who waters are one, and each will receive his wages according to his labor.” Evangelism is not a one-time event; it is a process. Pat states that when Christians understand this, they are less intimidated and are more encouraged to share their faith. Join Pat and co-host Keith Boychuck as they share a new definition and approach to evangelism in the post-Christian age we live in today.

Was the resurrection a product of collective delusion? There are thousands of people who believe in ghost and UFO encounters and most of these alleged experiences are false and the result of something called collective delusion. Was the resurrection also a result of collective delusion experienced by the followers of Christ? Join Pat and fellow apologist Dr. Doug Potter as they examine the theory of collective delusion and see if it provides an adequate alternative explanation for the empty tomb of Christ.

How do we share Christ in a culture that does not believe in absolute truth? Many Christians are afraid to share their faith in a culture that is growing more and more hostile to biblical teaching? Pat and co-host Keith Boychuck discuss the significant changes in the culture and give principles on how we can effectively share our faith in the post-Christian culture of today.

Today we are in a Post-Christian culture. What does it mean to be in a post-Christian culture? What significant changes have taken place? How does this affect evangelism today? Join Pat and fellow co-host Keith Boychuck as they discuss how Christians can effectively share engage the culture and effectively share the gospel in the post-Christian age.
