Tuesday Aug 14, 2018
Tuesday Aug 14, 2018
In this episode, we talk about the foundation of christian apologetics. Should we defend the gospel with evidential or presuppositional apologetics? Are the two at odds? What's the difference? We dig into each of these questions, and recommend another solid book on church membership.

Episode 3: Did Jesus Claim to be God?
Thursday Aug 16, 2018
Thursday Aug 16, 2018
In this episode, we discuss the divinity of Jesus, and explain how scripture does more than offer us proof-texts for this fundamental truth. We also look at how the earliest heresy in the Chrisitan church serves as evidence that Jesus' first followers viewed him as God.

Episode 5: Penal Substitutionary Atonement
Thursday Aug 23, 2018
Thursday Aug 23, 2018
Building on our discussion of the divinity of Jesus Christ, we turn to what the bible says Christ did on the cross. What is penal substitutionary atonement? The bible teaches that Christ died as a substitute for sinners, and suffered the wrath of God they justly deserved. We point out the biblical foundation for this belief and its importance for understanding the gospel. We also interact with the arguments of Greg Boyd, who criticizes PSA, and deal with a number of misrepresentations of the doctrine.

Episode 7: God is The Foundation of Knowledge
Wednesday Aug 29, 2018
Wednesday Aug 29, 2018
In this three-part series, we answer the question "How can you know Christianity is true?"
In part 1, we lay the foundation for this conversation (pun intended) by looking at competing epistemological foundations. We discuss how we as Christians, unlike the world, ground our knowledge in God’s revelation.

Episode 8: No One Is an Atheist
Friday Aug 31, 2018
Friday Aug 31, 2018
In this three-part series, we answer the question "How can you know Christianity is true?"
In part 2, we address the claim that building our knowledge on anything other than God and his word leads to absurdity. When the atheist claims to have moral, scientific, or logical knowledge, he is actually betraying his atheism and showing his innate knowledge of God's existence.

Episode 9: How Can we Know the Bible is True?
Saturday Sep 08, 2018
Saturday Sep 08, 2018
In this three-part series, we answer the question "How can you know Christianity is true?"
In part 3, we ask how Chrisitans can know that the bible is the word of God. Should we use some external, historical criteria as the way we authenticate scriptrue, or should we look to the bible itself?

Episode 10: Check Your Heart
Friday Sep 14, 2018
Friday Sep 14, 2018
In this episode, we talk about love. Our defense of the gospel should be grounded in a love for the lost, but too often our speech becomes prideful, quarrelsome, and unloving. Sean walks us through scripture on this subject, and we talk about the healthy skepticism we should all have of our own heart and motive.
