Today, through Grayce could not join the recording, Janell sits down with Joseph Robinson. Joseph shares about his love for getting off the grid and how he got into apologetics. Joseph also shares a bit of his faith journey—his experience growing up in a Christian home and how an identity crisis affected his walk with God and how his relationship with God changed when he became more involved in a church community.
They also talk about suffering. Joseph shares about the suffering he’s witnessed in his life. They also talk about how apologetics can be helpful in understanding who God is, the intellectual and emotional viewpoints of suffering, and so much more. We hope you enjoy the episode!
Husband, pastor and father of five, Joseph is a passionate apologist on the East Coast of Central Florida. He currently serves as a Chapter Director for Space Coast Stand to Reason (STR Outpost) and the Space Coast Chapter of Reasonable Faith Ministries.
Joseph is the founder and president of Overland Apologetics, Inc. a brand-new ministry that combines vehicle camping “off the grid” with compelling sessions teaching tactical ways to understand and defend the Christian World View.

Frank Turek speaking at the University of Vermont
Then one of the Pharisees asked Him to eat with him. And He went to the Pharisee’s house, and sat down to eat. And behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that
Jesus sat at the table in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster flask of fragrant oil, and stood at His feet behind
Him weeping; and she began to wash His feet with her tears, and wiped
them with the hair of her head; and she kissed His feet and anointed
them with the fragrant oil. Now when the Pharisee who had invited Him saw
this, he spoke to himself, saying, “This Man, if He were a prophet, would know who and what manner of woman
this is who is touching Him, for she is a sinner.”
And Jesus answered and said to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.”
So he said, “Teacher, say it.”
“There was a certain creditor who had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty. And when they had nothing with which to repay, he freely forgave them both. Tell Me, therefore, which of them will love him more?”
Simon answered and said, “I suppose the one whom he forgave more.”
And He said to him, “You have rightly judged.” Then He turned to the woman and said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave Me no water for My feet, but she has washed My feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head. You gave Me no kiss, but this woman has not ceased to kiss My feet since the time I came in. You did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman has anointed My feet with fragrant oil. Therefore I say to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.”
Then He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”
And those who sat at the table with Him began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”
Then He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”
