It seems our world is constantly moving towards conspiracy. Some are proven, others are not. How do we, as Christians, apply reason and sound theology without dismissing questions out of hand? Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens stand as the most prominent figures of the conspiracy laden right. Josh and Tim take a look at their claims, expose their tactics and encourage Colossians 2 thinking to stay above the fray.

In this podcast, Dr Tim Stratton and Josh Klein break down the messaging crisis in the pro-life movement, examine recent data trends, and discuss how churches, leaders, and legislation (including Nebraska efforts) play a critical role moving forward.

Dr. Tim Stratton and Josh Klein are back and have Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson and Dr. Charles Liu on the docket. Recently the two colleagues had a friendly discussion concerning the existence of Free Will on the @StarTalk podcast. Tyson doubts the existence of Free Will but Liu tentatively embraces it. However, they BOTH get some important metaphysics wrong. Dr. Tim and Josh take a look and offer their own perspective on the episode.

​ @TuckerCarlson recently had Nathan Apffel on to discuss Paula White's influence (among other things) on Trump's White House, but they also made some audacious theological claims. Dr. Tim Stratton and Josh Klein analyze a specific claim and explain why this, among other issues, discredits Tucker's theological and political prowess.

#Apologetics #FreeThinking #Christianity #tuckercarlson

On a recent MAVEN immersive experience in Utah, we had the pleasure of meeting a few philosophically inclined young men from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Far too often, conversations between Christians and Latter-day Saints remain at a surface level—talking past one another rather than reasoning together (Isaiah 1:18). Recently, @LetsTalk-HaydenCarroll released a book (and podcast) on the Creation Dilemma. It's a good argument, but does it dismantle credal Christianity? Join Dr. Tim Stratton, Josh Klein, and Will Hess from @TheChurchSplit as they dissect the argument and prove that Molinism remains unscathed and Mormonism collapses on its own argument.

This is a recording of a livestream on Youtube streamed on March 5th 2026. Dr. Tim Stratton and Josh Klein discuss how Christians should apply reason, logic, and sound theology to every aspect of life, including the Iranian conflict in the past week. Is it a just war? Is it a war at all? Should Christians be for it, against it, or somewhere in between? We discuss with a Christian Persian-American distantly related to the former Ayatollah!
