This week Steve Tsai, Matt Rosenblum and Joshua Tongel continue the Apologetics 101 series by examining chapters 1 and 2 of Normal Geisler's book "I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist." First, the classical notion of truth will be examined, and its absolute and exclusive nature will be defended. Next, the team will explain how to detect "self-refuting" or self-contradictory statements. This "road runner" tactic (as Geisler calls it) will be applied to a wide variety of views and philosophi...more

Religions come and go. Oprah and Eckhart have decided that it's Christianity's turn to go, so they've started a new one. The thing is, while there might be criticisms that people can make about Christianity, great thinkers have been answering those questions for thousands of years. Can Oprah and Eckhart answer the tough questions, and will their reinterpretation hold up under the spotlights of coherence, history, and scripture?

The resurrection of Jesus is arguably one of the most important, if not the most important teaching of the Christian faith. The apostle Paul wrote that if Jesus had not been raised, our faith is futile. Indeed, the resurrection of Jesus is the sine quo non of the Christian faith. Listen as Chris, Steve and Lindsay present evidences for the physical resurrection of Jesus.

Certainly, for the Christian, there are many reasons that we should be wary of the centralization of power that comes along with the codification of laws binding upon U.S. policy. But with that, many of the new international laws have had the effect of opening up new cultures to the Gospel of Jesus Christ and providing a legal basis for the protection of persecuted ...more

Is the worth of a human being determined simply by the sum of its parts or something transcendent and greater than ourselves? The world seems to be groping for answers as it tries to protect its citizens against international injustices and abuses of human dignity. On the one hand lawmakers around the world agree that there should be a set of laws governing human interaction but disagree on what to base this on. Does law succeed simply by consent of the people; and if so, what people? And what a...more
