I seek to answer and discuss things that are relevant to living life, philosophy, religion and faith.
Today comes another episode for some conversation. I talk about spiritual formation and apologetics. We look at some ways to grow spiritually and how this can impact your apologetics ministry. Remember, belief in God and Christ is more than just an intellectual journey, it is a relationship too!
This episode does a simple and shallow dive into the Ontological Argument as first proposed by St. Anselm and then now by the philosopher Alvin Plantinga. If you have not heard this argument before, this will provide a very basic version of the old and modern versions but is by no means a full talk on either. This is introductory content and the expansion of this discussion can be furthered based on listener feedback. Enjoy!
This episode I discuss an article that was previously written regarding abortion and if pre-born babies are in fact persons. This episode lays out my personal stance on the aspects or qualities that go into determining personhood. The approach used attempts to avoid the usage of God in the person debate and remains as philosophical as can be.
This is Episode two of this podcast and the feature conversation here is the Minimal Facts approach to the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. This approach uses four facts that are nearly universally accepted by scholars and a fifth fact that is accepted by three-fourths of scholars. In this episode, some objections or alternate theories of the resurrection are discussed.
Episode 1 of the Conversations Concerning Us podcast is based on my first blog post. In this podcast, I talk about the state of American culture and world culture. Based on this state of affairs in the world currently, I suggest that there are three things that we need to overcome to progress as a society. The implication is that if we continue down the current path than open and reasonable dialogue will almost certainly become non-existent.
This marks the start of the official Conversations Concerning Us podcast. This is episode 0 and is simply an introduction into the channel and myself. Briefly, I touch on my studies and introduce episode 1 which will follow shortly after this introductory episode.
