Explore challenging questions about Christianity in thoughtful, informed, and intellectually stimulating conversations that deepen the connection between faith and reason. Set within the historic Christian tradition, this podcast discusses current scientific, philosophical, and cultural issues as it pursues a faith that better understands and an intellect that has reason to believe. In a time when the world seems to be losing its mind, and hope along with it, our goal is to equip a new generation of critical thinkers who can defend their faith with reason and evidence. Hosted by Dr. David Andersen & Dr. Adam Francisco

Customer Reviews
Thank you!
I live this pod cast! The humor is just nerdy enough that it’s not over the top. The tradition I was raised in leaned fideistic, Iearned this word in the pod cast; but the idea that we can know YHWH through creation is abundantly conveyed in scripture. Thank you for exposing me to reasoned apologetics!
Consistently interesting podcast!
Adam and David are a great team of podcasters who bring a clear review of the topic at hand! Who knew philosophy could be so easy to understand!😉
Great Podcast
I sincerely appreciate the content - I am able to listen to podcasts at work, and this is one of my favorites.
