    The Top 3 Reasons Why We Can Believe in the Resurrection

    Did Jesus of Nazareth really rise from the dead? And if that's the case, how should that impact our view of history and everything we believe about God and reality? With the colloquial Easter holiday coming just around the corner, let's dive into the BEST evidence for the resurrection as Frank answers questions like:* What is the greatest miracle in the Bible? (SPOILER ALERT: it's NOT the Resurrection)* What are the four types of miracles that Jesus performed and what do they teach us about His divinity?* Why could we call them the "duh"-ciples of Jesus?* How do we know that Islam isn't true? And what about Judaism?* What makes the conversion of James (the brother of Jesus) so compelling?* Why does Dennis Prager think that the Old Testament is telling the truth and what implications does this have on the historicity of the New Testament?* Why do some people refuse to believe in the possibility of a resurrection despite the evidence?* What 7 figures associated with the trial and crucifixion of Christ have been discovered via archaeology?Listeners will discover why human life has eternal value, why Christianity stands alone among other worldviews, and how we can know the Bible is historically reliable. Plus, Frank shares a special invitation to join the CE team!Resources mentioned during the episode:Come join our mission! https://careers.crossexamined.org/ (https://careers.crossexamined.org/)Testimonial from Wright State Univ. - https://bit.ly/42NB2uh (https://bit.ly/42NB2uh)I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist - https://bit.ly/4j64NfE (https://bit.ly/4j64NfE)Live Free with Josh Howerton - https://bit.ly/42Bl9pB (https://bit.ly/42Bl9pB)Resurge with Josh Howerton & Josh McPherson - https://bit.ly/4iijgnH (https://bit.ly/4iijgnH)Conversation with the Faiths: Worldviews - https://bit.ly/42It8kW (https://bit.ly/42It8kW)

    What REALLY Happened During the Inquisitions? with Bill Federer

    What’s the real history behind the Inquisitions, what do they reveal about the Christian faith, and could history be repeating itself? A few weeks ago, we unpacked the truth about the history of the Crusades. This week, the great Bill Federer returns to shed light on the rise of the first inquisitions, their lasting impact on both the Church and American history, and how these events connect to the biblical narrative. Join Frank and Bill as they tackle questions like:* What are some of the key events surrounding the Spanish, Islamic, and Portuguese Inquisitions?* What does Islam teach about those who leave the faith?* What is the "Divine Right of Kings" and why is it so dangerous?* Why was translating the Bible into English considered a serious crime?* How did Christian disengagement from politics open the door to more persecution?* Is religion really the root cause of most wars—and which worldview has the most violent history?* Who did Thomas Jefferson give credit to as the inspiration for his views on freedom of religion?* What is Jesus' new way forward now that the Old Covenant law is obsolete?* Who in our culture wants to do an inquisition against Christians?In this thought-provoking episode, Frank and Bill explore how political powers throughout history have exploited religion to gain control—often with tragic consequences. From assassinations to coerced conversions, you’ll get a gripping look at the real story behind the inquisitions—while also debunking myths and setting the record straight by looking at the facts!

    How Does a Skeptical Philosopher Become a Christian? with Wikipedia Co-Founder Larry Sanger

    How does someone go from co-founding one of the world’s most visited websites as an atheist to becoming a Bible-believing Christian? And what kind of evidence can shake a skeptical philosopher out of his naturalistic worldview? This week, Frank sits down with Dr. Larry Sanger, co-founder of Wikipedia, to explore the surprising path that led him back to faith in Christ. Tune in as they answer questions like:* When and why did Larry stop believing in Christianity?* How did Wikipedia get started and what does it teach us about human nature?* What was it about the Bible that inspired Larry to read through it with a critical lens and what passages intrigued him the most?* How did reading the Bible in 90-days change his perspective?* What do skeptics and apologists often overlook in the evidence for God?* Why is changing someone's worldview so difficult and what's the best approach to do so?From confronting evil in the world to exploring the design behind creation, Larry’s journey is both intellectual and deeply personal. If you're curious about faith, philosophy, or how one of the internet’s pioneers found truth in Scripture, be sure to read Larry's testimony on his website using the link below!Resources mentioned during the episode:Larry's Website - https://larrysanger.org/ (https://larrysanger.org/)Larry's Testimony - https://larrysanger.org/2025/02/how-a-skeptical-philosopher-becomes-a-christian (https://larrysanger.org/2025/02/how-a-skeptical-philosopher-becomes-a-christian)

    After 20 Years of Debates, Why I'm Still a Christian with Justin Brierley

    How do you spend 20 years talking to some of the world’s most well-known atheists and still remain a committed Christian? Is it possible that belief in God actually makes sense?Popular radio host and podcaster Justin Brierley has been creating and facilitating constructive conversations about faith for more than two decades, and has had a ringside seat as believers and nonbelievers have debated Christianity. This week on the podcast, Justin joins Frank to discuss his upcoming book, 'Why I'm Still a Christian: After Two Decades of Conversations with Skeptics and Atheists–The Reason I Believe' and shares how he kept his faith intact while engaging with skeptics from around the world. Together, he and Frank answer big questions like:* What led Justin to write this book, and what ultimately convinces him that Christianity is true?* Is Christianity intellectually defensible in a secular age?* What are the strongest arguments for (and against) the existence of God?* Why are some leading atheists reconsidering their skepticism?* Has science truly made belief in God obsolete?* How can Christians engage skeptics without losing their own faith?* What advice does Justin have for people who may be "deconstructing" their faith?Don’t miss this eye-opening discussion, and be sure to pre-order your copy of 'Why I'm Still a Christian' to support Justin’s important work in Christian apologetics!Resources mentioned during the episode:How a Dice Can Say That God Exists - https://youtu.be/yy6kaDaeDT8 (https://youtu.be/yy6kaDaeDT8)Pre-Order Justin's new book - https://www.amazon.com/dp/1496466934 (https://www.amazon.com/dp/1496466934)Justin's Podcast - https://justinbrierley.com/surprisingrebirth (https://justinbrierley.com/surprisingrebirth)

    Are the Gospels Hopelessly Contradictory? with J. Warner Wallace

    Are there contradictions between the gospel accounts? If so, how can we trust the central tenet of Christianity--the Resurrection of Jesus? J. Warner Wallace returns to share how he used his skill set as a detective to investigate the claims of the New Testament gospels and compares his findings to those of atheist/agnostic New Testament scholar, Bart Ehrman.Together, Frank and Jim answer questions like:* What's necessary to prove an event occurred in the past?* Why weren't first-century historians bothered by textual differences found in the Gospels?* Why is it better to have four different gospel accounts vs. one harmonization?* Why would God allow these textual differences?* What surprised Jim the most the first time he read the Gospels as an atheist?* Why do detectives separate eyewitnesses?* When doing detective work, why does Jim prefer it when the stories are "messy"?* Does the evidence always determine the verdict? In other words, why do Jim and Bart come to different conclusions when it comes to the Resurrection of Jesus?* Why is bias against the supernatural a double-standard for materialist atheists?* What's the best way to test an eyewitness?* If the Gospels are contradictory and can’t be trusted, why do critics like Erhman conclude that much of the New Testament is true and that the disciples really believed they saw the resurrected Jesus?* How are atheists disagreeing with themselves and agreeing with Christians when it comes to alternative explanations for the resurrection?And so much more! If you normally listen to podcasts on 2x speed you may need to slow it down for this one and take some notes!Resources mentioned during the episode:Jim's website - https://coldcasechristianity.com/Cold Case Christianity - https://a.co/d/dABS4uA (https://a.co/d/dABS4uA)Case Files: Murder & Meaning - https://casefilesgraphicnovel.com/ (https://casefilesgraphicnovel.com/)

    How Can Murder and True Crime Point Others to Jesus? with Jimmy and J. Warner Wallace

    Why are so many people fascinated with evil stories of murder, and true crime? And more importantly, can we use that fascination to point them to Jesus? Christianity is the only worldview that answers the problem of evil adequately, and now there’s a new graphic novel that tackles this big question in a way that’s both artistic and compelling!This week, Frank sits down with cold-case detective and bestselling author, J. Warner Wallace, along with his son and co-author, Jimmy Wallace, to discuss their new book, 'Case Files: Murder and Meaning’. As a father-son duo with deep roots in law enforcement, they’re using their real-life experiences to craft a crime story that sneaks apologetics into an action-packed graphic novel. Tune in as they address questions like:* Why do so many police officers become cynical, and what does that reveal about human nature?* How did their experience in law enforcement help Jim and Jimmy to write this story?* What makes 'Case Files' different from other apologetics books?* How can storytelling help people wrestle with questions about morality and justice?* What are some of the biggest misconceptions that the public has about police and detective work?* How did the George Floyd and BLM riots radically shift the police world?* What are some of the common internal and psychological struggles of police officers?* How did Jim overcome his season of identity crisis once he retired?Be sure to pre-order your copy of 'Case Files: Murder and Meaning' and then head to Jim's website to grab some exclusive bonus resources!

    C.S. Lewis on How Do Demons Deceive Us? Plus Q&A

    Why is propaganda and empty rhetoric so appealing to some people? In this midweek episode, Frank explains how the first of 'The Screwtape Letters' by C.S. Lewis perfectly illustrates the way demons manipulate human beings, now and throughout history. He'll also explore the recent power struggles between the Trump Administration and the lower district court judge who blocked Trump's transgender military ban. Frank will answer questions like:* Why is using "jargon" instead of evidence-based arguments not good thinking?* What specific tactics does C.S. Lewis say demons use to tempt humans and where do we see evidence of this happening in our culture today?* Do all people have the right or privilege to serve in the military?* Was Trump's decision to say transgender people are not qualified to serve in the military unconstitutional?* Why is it so difficult to impeach judges, and do we really have only three branches of government?* What do a lot of people get wrong about Islam?Frank also tackles some listener questions about who will be resurrected (is it only Christians?) and whether an old-earth contradicts biblical genealogies. Plus, he’ll reveal details about his numerous speaking events coming up this spring—so listen closely to see if he's coming to a city near you!Resources mentioned during the episode:The ScrewTape Letters by C.S.
