Many have described the culture of America to be both post-Christian and post-truth. Naturally, this creates a hostile environment to any worldview that asserts an exclusive claim to truth as well as to Christians who believe in and support traditional Biblical values. How, then, should Christians live in the midst of this culture and how should we respond? In this episode, we walk through the book of Jude to get some Biblical insight as to what it means to contend for the faith.
There is a rapidly growing religion in American that is confronting the beliefs and doctrines of Christianity: the religion of Wokeism. This religion is becoming increasingly pervasive in our culture and if Christians are to adequately defend the truth of the Christian faith in the face of this new worldview, we need to understand its roots. In this episode, we take a look at the core tenets of Wokeism, its philosophical (and spiritual) roots, and discuss ways that we can minister to its followers.
Magnify with Justin Begley is a podcast dedicated to equipping Christians with Biblical truths under the lens of apologetics so that we can faithfully magnify Jesus Christ in our daily lives and effectively share the gospel with the world.
Why does God allow evil and suffering to occur? When we look around the world, it seems like there is so much violence, hate, division, sickness, hunger, oppression, exploitation, and all other kinds of evil. Would a good God really allow such evil to occur? Is evil incompatible with the existence of such a good God? In this episode, we explore these questions of the problem of evil. Grounding our discussion in John 11, we also discuss how Christians ought to respond to the existence of evil and suffering.
Have you ever had a longing that has never yet been quite fulfilled? Do you ever ponder the question of whether there is life after death? The question of our destiny (where we are heading) is one of life's most important questions. A certainty of life is that all of us will eventually die. But is that it? When we die, is that simply the end of our existence? In this episode, we discuss the Christian doctrine of the last things, the Bible's answers regarding life after death, and an apologetic argument that points to the truth of the Christian worldview in this area compared to other worldviews.
Do objective moral values exist? Can they even exist if God does not exist? Who sets the standard for what is moral and what is immoral? In this episode, we explore the question of morality and how the Christian faith is the only worldview that can comprehensively and coherently provide a basis for objective moral values. We also provide a brief introduction to the problem of evil and how the Christian alone is able to deal with that common challenge.
What is the meaning of life? Everyone asks this question at some point and there are a lot of competing answers across differing worldviews. In this episode of Magnify, we discuss how the Christian faith provides the best and most satisfying answer to the question of meaning.
Have you ever doubted the existence of God as the Creator of the world? Have you been led to believe that science has disproved the existence of God and that the Christian faith stands in contradiction to science? In this episode, we walk through three strong arguments for the existence of God, and show that, rather than standing in contradiction to the Christian faith, science actually affirms the reasonableness of the belief that God created the universe. Tune in to listen to the first episode in our brand new series, In Defense of Christianity, were we discuss the question of origins.
Every believer knows of the Great Commission that Jesus gives in Matthew 28. Christians are mobilized by the Holy Spirit to go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. This is God's command to evangelize. But how many Christians are aware of the biblical mandate to give a defense for the Christian faith? In other words, how many of us know of the biblical mandate for apologetics? What exactly is apologetics and how do we effectively use it to share the hope that we have in Christ with unbelievers? We talk about all of this on this episode of Magnify.
The 2020 U.S. Presidential Elections has been characterized as the most consequential election in modern history. Since tomorrow is Election Day, we discuss how Christians can remain faithful to and glorify God with their vote.
