    Does God Reward Killing Babies?! (A look at Psalm 137:9)

    Does God Reward Killing Babies?! (A look at Psalm 137:9)

    In this episode of Truthspresso I look at one passage I consider to be one of the hardest to explain. It is an excuse for some people to believe the Bible really isn't the Word of God or that Christianity isn't true.
    Psalm 137:9 says "Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones."
    Does God favor or reward people for killing babies?!
    Let's look at some context and history to figure out what this verse is really talking about!

    The Hardest Verse in the Bible?! (A look at Mark 13:32)

    The Hardest Verse in the Bible?! (A look at Mark 13:32)

    In this episode of Truthspresso I look at one passage deemed the hardest verse to explain from an article addressed to Christian writers:
    Why did Jesus say He didn't know the day or hour of His return? If He's God incarnate, wouldn't He know this?
    We look at four explanations and evaluate which one (or two) are the most likely.

    Just Who Were Those Nephilim, Anyway? (part 2)

    Just Who Were Those Nephilim, Anyway? (part 2)

    No Christian podcast worth its salt can avoid answering the all-important question: just who were those Nephilim, anyway?
    Chelsea and I present the second of three popular theories about the Nephilim: that they are the offspring of Seth's descendants intermarrying with Cain's rebellious descendants.
    Theories about the Nephilim seem to depend on who were "the sons of God" and "the daughters of men" in Genesis chapter 6.
    Join us as we explore arguments for this theory and arguments against it.

    The Hardest Verses to Explain? (part 2: Who are "the spirits in prison"?)

    In this episode of Truthspresso Express I look at one passage among others considered "difficult-to-understand" from an article addressed to Christian writers:
    Who are "the spirits in prison" to whom Jesus preached, and when did He preach to them?
    We look at five different views and I reveal which one I hold.

Diverse Topics- Good production quality

Daniel has done a great job of bringing in diverse topics from economics to theology proper to personality discussions.
I particularly appreciate the production quality and down-to-earth discussions, especially with his sweet wife.
These are podcasts that I will have my older children listen to.
There was one podcast where Daniel mentions transgenderism. So, if your children aren't old enough to understand, just be sure to listen to the podcast first.

thanks Daniel for your comments and podcast! I look forward to your future topics.
