SEPTEMBER 2020 UPDATE: We originally shared this podcast in February 2018. Recently, Hillary F. and Teasi Cannon joined Alisa Childers on her podcast to talk about Jen Hatmaker’s latest book, Fierce, Free, and Full of Fire. They analyze the worldview of the book and how it interacts with biblical Christianity. They also discuss the recent […]

This is possibly one of the most awkward podcasts we have had to do. This election season was brutal. Never have I seen the results of an election affect kids in such a profound way, and never have I seen so many young adults behaving like children. When I was a kid, I knew the elections were […]

In 1 Timothy 4:1 it says “Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons.” This is what is known as “the great apostasy.” Apostasy is just a fancy word for falling away from the faith. Within the last […]

Today we are continuing with our Richard Dawkins series. As we are preparing for this podcast, we acknowledge it’s a tough book to discuss because he keeps introducing individual hornets’ nests and then moving on to the next. This is going to take some focus and not drift on to other challenges he raises. Today […]

Welcome to the first of our “Get to Know Our Team” podcasts, in which we interview Mama Bear team members (in no particular order!). In this interview, Amy Davison talks with Teasi Cannon, who contributed to the Mama Bear Apologetics book (she wrote Chapter 5: “God Helps Those Who Help Themselves – Self-Helpism” and co-authored […]

Today we’re continuing our critique of the Richard Dawkins book, Outgrowing God. We have been talking about his main criticisms of Christianity in each chapter. In this episode, we are in Chapter Four: “Is God Really Good?” We are going to take a few of Dawkins’ examples and channel Paul Harvey as we look at […]

Whenever we turn on the TV these days, it feels like we’re being bombarded with bad news. Because of that, we decided to record this “chaser” episode of the Mama Bear Apologetics podcast. While the Covid-19 pandemic is something we should take seriously, we wanted to point out that we have also been surrounded by […]

When I posted the blog this weekend dissecting the “Guiding Vision and Definition of Principles” from the women’s march, I never expected the kind of attention that it would receive. And while I stand behind my words, that one post was never intended to be my defining moment. I value balance, and there is only […]
