Reasons to Believe Africa Podcast Reasons to Believe Africa

In this episode, Dr. David Block shares with us how he came to believe in Jesus. While a young Jewish astronomer, Dr. Block did not believe in a God who personally revealed himself to people. But as Dr. Block shares about his love for the Bible, his testimony, his joys, how he met his wife, and about the ministry he directs called Reasons to Believe (Africa), you will see that he has come to know the Lord Jesus, who reveals himself to us personally in a myriad of ways. “Always look up. Never give up.” —Dr. David Block

A stimulating and heart-wrenching conversation with Moses Covenant, the president of Apologetics Uganda and fellow ally on African soil.

We discussed the current spiritual climate of Uganda and the need for apologetics in a doubt-filled society. Moses shared his personal story of overcoming doubts and his desire to cultivate a community of individuals who have reasons for their faith, and gave some helpful tips on how to approach those who have deep-seated objections to the Gospel.
