    That Is Not How You Demonstrate Objective Morality! Episode 64

    In this episode of 'Christianity Still Makes Sense' Tim gets to ask Bobby questions on one of his favorite topics - moral philosophy! Together they discuss the moral objection to Christianity and elaborate on the need to be able to both acknowledge that objective morality exists and that it must be grounded in God. For more specific responses to moral objections against Christianity watch Bobby's full sermon on 'The Moral Objection' where he answers questions such as: If God is good why is there so much suffering and evil in the world? Isn't Christianity oppressive to women? Doesn't the Bible promote slavery? Isn't God a genocidal maniac? Why does God seem to hate all things gay? What kind of just God sends people to hell?🎥Watch Bobby's full sermon on 'The Moral Objection' HERE: https://imagechurchlive.churchcenter.com/episodes/329387 📖 Get your copy of Bobby's latest book, 'Does Christianity Still Make Sense?'

    If You Don't Believe What We Believe You Are Going To.Hell? Episode 63

    If You Don't Believe What We Believe You Are Going To.Hell? Episode 63

    In this episode of 'Christianity Still Makes Sense' Tim and Bobby dive into the pluralist objection to Christianity that many people struggle with. Though this objection certainly isn't new, it is hardly surprising that it has become an even greater hindrance to people over recent years. Particularly when one considers the cultural climate we find ourselves in today that values diversity, equity, and inclusion above all things. Bobby answers questions such as:
    - Can't there be more than one way to a destination?
    - Can the validity of someone's beliefs be measured by their sincerity?
    - Are Christians too dogmatic about the idea that Jesus is the only way to heaven?
    - Isn't love the only thing that matters?
    And much more!
