    Is Luke Wrong About the Events of Jesus’ Birth?

    For full show notes & information about the hosts www.leahchapman.org/podcasts/s8e14 Scholars and skeptics have pointed out several “problems” in Luke's account of Jesus' birth. This week we will dive into these problems. Indeed, there are a few historical points that even make Christian scholars think and have to dig into the history more. However, these "problems" in Luke do not give us cause for concern once studied. Instead, they're an opportunity to learn and do more research into the time of Jesus’ birth. When we do so, we see there is no reason to seriously doubt Luke's account. Issues discussed from Luke 2:1-5: The timing of the census The timing of Quirinius' governorship The need for pregnant Mary to return to Bethlehem for the census at all Support: Patreon: www.patreon.com/leahdchapman - Starting at $3/month!

    Would Yahweh be on the Council of gods from Thor: Love and Thunder?

    For full show notes & information about the hosts www.leahchapman.org/podcasts/s8e10 Is Yahweh a terrible god like those from the movie Thor: Love and Thunder? This week Leah and Andrew explore how our God is different from those gods. We explore a passage from Joshua 6 to consider how we can think through God's destruction in the Old Testament. Lastly, we explore why we can believe our God is real even though the gods on the council from the movie are not. Support: Patreon: www.patreon.com/leahdchapman - Starting at $1/month!
