Best-selling author James Finke joins Blake to discuss apologetics and how wrestling with doubt led him to a deeper faith. James shares his journey from a nominal religious upbringing to a life-changing encounter with scripture during a period of intense anxiety. He recalls how a panic attack drove him to open his Bible to Luke 12:22, a moment that transformed his understanding of God’s presence. The conversation explores how surrendering control to God leads to true peace and purpose, challenging the cultural narrative of self-reliance. James also explains how his passion for apologetics grew, leading him to study and teach others about defending their faith. The episode highlights the power of personal testimony in bringing others to faith and the importance of engaging with spiritual doubts.
