July 20, 2023#6 Can You Defend Your Faith to People Who Reject the New Testament? | Guest: J. Warner Wallace
Picture this: you're sharing your faith with a person, and he says he doesn't believe the Bible is true.
So is there a way to show the truth of the New Testament without directly appealing to it… and without pretending to be neutral, or compromising your faith or your values?
J. Warner Wallace is the author of Person of Interest: Why Jesus Still Matters in a World that Rejects the Bible. He's going to explain…
The story of how he came to write his new book, Person of Interest

The difference between direct and indirect evidence… and why indirect evidence is so powerful.

Why it was better for Jesus to come in the First Century than in the Internet Age.

The impact Jesus had on science.

The impact Jesus has had on architecture and art.

Why, if you received a good, Western-style education, you should thank Jesus.

How Jesus inspired other religions to modify their teachings—even religions that came before Christianity.

How YOU can take the next best step in using your knowledge of history and apologetics to share your faith and disciple the younger generation (hint: it's all about priorities)

July 12, 2023#54 Unlocking the Treasures of Tolkien: A Journey Into Faith & Mythology | Guest: Michael Jahosky
In this episode, we delve into the fascinating world of J.R.R. Tolkien and his profound impact on literature, Christianity, and the human imagination with our guestMichael Jahosky, author of "The Good News of the Return of the King."
Here's a sneak peek of the questions answered and topics discussed in this thought-provoking episode:
What makes J.R.R. Tolkien an important author?

What is Tolkien trying to accomplish in his writings? What is the connection of his stories to his worldview?

What is Michael Jahosky's favorite Tolkien work, and why?

What work of Tolkien's should a reader start with?

Music plays a huge role in Tolkien's Middle Earth. Is our world affected by heavenly music in a similar way?

Would Tolkien have understood the elements of the Old Testament such as talking snakes and talking donkeys as literally and historically true, given his understanding of Scripture's message as "True Myth?"

Should the topic of "beauty" be dealt with more in Christian circles? Have we neglected aesthetics? What are good sources on that topic?
We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did, filled with intriguing insights, scholarly analysis, and profound reflections on the intersection of faith, literature, and the enduring legacy of J.R.R. Tolkien.

Thank you for your continued support of The Think Institute.

Keep Thinking,
Joel Settecase

July 06, 2023 #53 Double Vision: Ecclesiastes Understood from a Presuppositional Perspective | Guest: Pastor Rob Barker, PhD
Welcome to "Worldview Legacy," the show that equips you to become the worldview legacy your family and church need.
In today's episode, your host, Joel Settecase, President of The Think Institute, is joined by special guest Pastor Rob Barker, PhD, as they explore the intriguing topic of how to understand one of the most mysterious books of the Bible—namely, Ecclesiastes.
Joel and Rob embark on a thought-provoking discussion that challenges prevailing interpretations of the Book of Ecclesiastes.
Drawing from their shared appreciation for the Van Tillian, Presuppositional framework, Joel and Pastor Rob Barker present a compelling case for understanding Ecclesiastes through this unique lens. Rob explores how this approach offers a more coherent understanding of the book's overarching themes and sheds light on its enigmatic passages.
Specially, in this episode you will learn about:
• Why the liberal interpretation of Ecclesiastes fails to capture its true essence.
• Why the traditional Evangelical interpretation falls short in grasping its profound meaning.
• Why reading Ecclesiastes twice is crucial for a comprehensive understanding of its message.
• The question of authorship, debating whether or not Solomon actually wrote Ecclesiastes.
Tune in to "Worldview Legacy" as Joel Settecase and Pastor Rob Barker invite you to embark on a journey of intellectual discovery, challenging conventional wisdom and exploring controversial ideas from a conservative perspective. Get ready to expand your worldview and deepen your understanding of Ecclesiastes through a thought-provoking Presuppositional interpretation.

June 21, 2023 #51 How to Understand and Use The Transcendental Argument for God (T.A.G.)
What Is the Transcendental Argument for God?The Transcendental Argument for God (TAG) was first developed by Cornelius Van Til, the godfather of Presuppositional Apologetics. Since Van Til first articulated it, it has been picked up and worked on by subsequent theologians and apologists.
Today you’re going to hear from Joel Settecase, Kevin Blessum, Brian Kurkjian and Rob Barker. Joel is the President of The Think Institute (TTI) and host of the Worldview Legacy Podcast. Kevin is a TTI board member. Brian is developing a really cool resource for TTI, and Rob Barker helps run the ThinkSquad community. Each of them is a dad. Each of them is seeking to disciple his family in the Christian faith. And these are exactly the four guys you want to hear from, if you want to know more about TAG and how to use it to respond to the toughest challenges to Christianity today.
Specifically, you’re going to learn:
• Why logic presupposes God—AND why “not logic” also presupposes God!
• Why logic cannot merely be something humans evolved with.
• What the Transcendental Argument is and how to use it to defend your faith.
