This week Bible apologist Sandy Simpson educates us on Dominionism. This is a four week study with the first three being from a series Sandy taught and the fourth from another teaching but ties in.

Joshua 3recounts the Israelites' crossing of the Jordan River, where they consecrated themselves in preparation for a miracle. As the priests carrying the Ark of the Covenant stepped into the river, the water stopped flowing upstream, and the entire nation crossed to the Promised Land on dry ground. This event demonstrated God's power and faithfulness, with the priests remaining in the river until everyone had crossed. Preparation: Before crossing, Joshua told the people to "consecrate yourselves" because the Lord was going to perform wonders.The Crossing: At Joshua's command, the priests carrying the Ark of the Covenant stepped into the flooding Jordan River.The Miracle: As soon as their feet touched the water, the river stopped flowing upstream at the city of Adam, allowing the entire nation of Israel to cross on dry ground.Symbolism: The miracle was a sign to the people that God was with them and would help them conquer the land, fulfilling His promises.Lasting Memorial: After the crossing, Joshua instructed the people to take twelve stones from the riverbed to create a memorial for future generations to remember this event. Please SUBSCRIBE to our Channel!Check out online TRAINING at EQUIPPEDACADEMY.COMBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/reason-for-truth--2774396/support.

Growing up means becoming the new you. And growing always comes with growing pains. This week we discuss mom-growing-pains and how to avoid the steps that lead to the pit of despair. The post It's the Pit of Despair! appeared first on Sheologians.

Original airdate: 6/5/25 Mary welcomes new guest Judge Phil Ginn of Southern Evangelical Seminary to discuss the critical need for apologetics - understanding it, and using what we learn. It can be like a foreign language, if you don't use it you just might lose it. Hiding God's Word in our hearts is critical to the articulation of biblical apologetics. We will talk about their upcoming National Apologetics Conference. Then we look at the quagmire parents have found themselves in when trying to assert their rights and opt out of perverted DEI type indoctrination. The public schools don't want to deal with those messes, because hey, that means their students aren't learning to be oh so tolerant of diversity and inclusion. Well, that's on them, the schools - and parents are fighting back. Finally, we look at our government and why Trump has to deal with the O'Biden judiciary mess via activist judges. How did we get to the point that our duly elected President has his agenda hijacked at every turn? An enlightening hour with the president of SES, a former judge and very sharp regarding the Christian worldview.   Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

Gary discusses the current state of eschatology debates online. It can be easy to become dismissive of others who can't understand or agree with your position, but Gary has a different approach. He often says, "Don't give a reason for people to reject your position except the position itself."

On the last four episodes of the Profile, we have discussed the importance of understanding and living in accordance with the fact that we as human beings are intentionally created by God, in His image. When we lose sight of this central truth about our humanity, much moral and societal confusion and many evils will soon follow. If naturalism is true, then morality and virtue are mere sentiments, not anything objectively true or real. Literary scholar and Christian apologist C.S. Lewis recognized what individual and cultural consequences would follow in the wake of moral relativism. On this episode of Apologetics Profile, we discuss C.S. Lewis's The Abolition of Man with Lewis scholar and author Dr. Michael Ward and how Lewis's thoughts are still very much relevant for our time. From michaelward.netMichael Ward is an English literary critic and theologian. He works at the University of Oxford where he is an associate member of the Faculty of Theology and Religion. He is the author of the award-winning and best-selling Planet Narnia: The Seven Heavens in the Imagination of C.S. Lewis (Oxford University Press) and of After Humanity: A Guide to C.S. Lewis's The Abolition of Man (Word on Fire Academic); he is the co-editor of The Cambridge Companion to C.S. Lewis (Cambridge University Press). Though based at Oxford in his native England, Dr Ward is also employed as Professor of Apologetics at Houston Christian University, Texas, teaching one course per semester as part of the online MA program in Christian Apologetics.Free Four-Page Articles From Watchman FellowshipCharles Darwin Carl Sagan's CosmosNaturalism Deconstruction FREE: We are also offering a subscription to our 4-page bimonthly Profiles here: www.watchman.org/Free.PROFILE NOTEBOOK: Order the complete collection of Watchman Fellowship Profiles (over 600 pages -- from Astrology to Zen Buddhism) in either printed or PDF formats here: www.watchman.org/notebook.

Is Christianity Oppressive to Women? History Says the Exact Opposite Is Christianity oppressive to women—or is that one of the biggest myths of modern culture? In this episode, we take a hard look at the historical evidence, comparing how women were treated in bot the cultures of classical antiquity as well as 20th century non-Christian societies like India, China, and various Islamic states. The results are surprising: women consistently flourished most where Christianity took root. This is just one aspect of how modern Western society—now rapidly abandoning Christianity—has replaced the pursuit of human flourishing with entertainment, consumerism, and self-focused identity. Yet historically, Christianity created the social systems, moral frameworks, and communities that helped women and men thrive.

The first-century historian Flavius Josephus is the oldest source we have for the historical Jesus outside of the Bible.His 90-word paragraph about Jesus - where he calls Jesus “the Christ”, and says Jesus “appeared to them [the disciples] alive again on the third day", spending a third day restored to life - has sparked centuries of debate.Most experts think this paragraph has an authentic core, but has been embellished by a later Christian scribe.But new scholarly evidence has emerged that might turn our understanding of Josephus - and what he wrote about Jesus - on its head.(00:00) - - 90 Words (10:39) - - Flavius Josephus (14:20) - - Traitor or pragmatist?

It seems to be a common occurrence in families that one of the kids, or maybe even one of the spouses or other family members, has wandered away from Holy Communion with the Church. People seem desperate for answers about what do do and how to convince them to return. The answers are usually not that simple. But, there are some simple places to start, like prayer and personal witness.

In this episode of Christ the Center, Camden Bucey and Lane Tipton explore Geerhardus Vos's profound treatment of faith in the Gospel of John (pp. 390–392 of Biblical Theology). Vos unfolds faith not as an abstract belief but as a living, continuous union with the incarnate and ascended Truth—Jesus Christ Himself. John's theology binds faith and truth together: the Son comes down from heaven as the true light, true bread, true vine, and the Truth (John 1:9; 6:32; 15:1; 14:6). Faith, therefore, is a Spirit-wrought communion with the heavenly reality revealed in Him. Tipton and Bucey trace how this Johannine vision lifts believers from the shadowy worship of the old covenant to true, eschatological worship "in spirit and in truth." Faith beholds Christ even now, anticipating the beatific vision. In contrast to philosophical or impersonal notions of truth, Vos insists that truth is personal, Trinitarian, and heavenly—rooted in the self-revealing God. Thus, saving faith is not blind trust but an intimate, knowing participation in the life of the risen Christ, a foretaste of the age to come.

When did Christians first recognize the biblical canon and how do we know we have the right books? Today, we have New Testament scholar Dr. Michael Kruger (The Question of Canon) to unpack what “canon” means, why recognition began far earlier than the 4th century, and how both intrinsic factors (covenant, apostles) and extrinsic factors (heretics like Marcion) shaped the process. We also address why Protestants, Catholics, and Orthodox differ, and what to make of texts like The Shepherd of Hermas and the Gospel of Thomas.

Join the show with a TEXT here!A former Protestant apologist has flipped the script: once a defender of sola scriptura, he now argues that the church's authority supersedes Scripture. In this episode we watch his video, unpack his central objections to sola scriptura, and trace how his new ecclesial framework reshapes his understanding of dogma.We'll move from close reaction to careful analysis, testing his claims against historical and theological standards and then putting one of the canons from Nicaea II under the microscope to show where an ecclesial-first approach clashes with a Scripture-centered view of authority.This episode is for anyone interested in doctrinal controversies, patristic authority, or the Protestant–Catholic/Eastern conversation—pastors, students, and curious listeners alike. Grab your Bible, bring a snack, and settle in!

Rick and Svea close out the series on Acts of Leadership by looking at a powerful act of leadership: telling your story about your relationship with Jesus. No one knows your story better than you. No one will know your story unless you tell it.Topics discussed in this episode:00:00 Intro02:28 This passage resonated with a lot of people. It helps to take the fear out of evangelism - just tell your story.05:39 Paul's genius in how he told his story: bring light.08:22 Paul begins telling his story by honoring those to whom he is speaking - even though those people were of questionable character. 1) recognize dignity and 2) express respect.16:35 Honoring someone may require a high degree of self-control so you don't speak what first comes to mind about that person. 17:43 Adopt an approach toward people that comes out of who we are becoming in Christ.24:00 No one knows your story better than you. No one will know your story unless you tell it.27:23 What was life like before Jesus? What initially drew me toward him? What has my life been like since Jesus?29:32 We are responsible for what we contribute and we should take that seriously. We're not responsible for the result; God is.33:34 Taking it from an individual level to a corporate level. The why behind some of Autumn Ridge's outreach practices.42:50 Wrapping up the series on Acts of Leadership with this bow: telling your story is a powerful act of leadership that doesn't require the position of being a leader.

What is God’s will and how do we actually find it? Does God still speak to us today, and if so, how can we recognize His voice? Today, we have author and apologist Greg Koukl, founder of Stand to Reason, about one of the most practical and misunderstood topics in the Christian life: how to make decisions that honor God. Greg challenges the common idea that Christians must wait for a “still small voice” or a “sign” before making choices and instead points us back to what Scripture really teaches about God’s will.

What happens when a lifelong dream collides with an unexpected diagnosis? For David Suarez, the path seemed clear from the age of six: become a cardiovascular surgeon and heal broken hearts. But when David was fast-tracked into Brown University's prestigious medical school, a sidelining diagnosis and an aha from God showed him that there was more than one way to fix a broken heart. A shower of surrender showed David an entirely new way to see God and deal with his narcolepsy diagnosis. And he found a natural antidote in sharing Jesus with others that led David down an entirely new career path.  David is now a high school Bible teacher as well as published apologist. See how God guides David from one passionate career choice to another, and how he is now fixing broken hearts.Some of David's Books:David's Book, Worldview Review: A Guide to Worldview Formation, Christian Apologetics, Comparative Religion, and Evaluating Competing Belief SystemsDavid's Book, The Death of Allah, 10 paradoxes that dismantle Islamist theismWhat Should a Muslim Believe? a field guide for ChristiansThe Sleepy Seminarian, apologetics questions and answers by DavidHelpful Links:Reformed University FellowshipNarcolepsy or HypersomniaLet us know what you thought of the show!Follow One80 on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or our website.Never miss a One80.

Is there any redeeming value in reading fantasy literature or literature from the ancient world that is not distinctively Christian? What does Athens have to do with Jerusalem? What does truth have to do with fiction? Our guest again this week, an advocate for classical Christian education, Dr. Louis Markos, believes that reading fantasy or any of the classical works from pagan antiquity is an essential component to a classical Christian education; one that enables students to understand and appreciate the bigger historical and cultural contexts picture related to the origins of Christianity, as well as equips them to better grasp who they are as human beings created in the image of God. We continue to discuss his new book Passing the Torch - An Apology for the Christian Faith. Dr. Louis Markos is an authority on C. S. Lewis, apologetics, and ancient Greece and Rome. He lectures widely for classical Christian and classical charter schools and conferences. Markos is the author of twenty-six books, and is the Robert H. Ray Chair of Humanities at Houston Christian University in Houston, Texas.

John Lovell (Warrior Poet) joins Pastor Josh McPherson on the Stronger Man Nation podcast to unpack why playful jabs actually forge trust, how to argue without being a jerk, and why love on display is the most effective apologetic. John shares the gut-punch story behind his vigilante novel Lions of Mercer (honoring a fallen friend), why the book shows evil without reveling in it, and how publishers tried to avoid the topic.They dive into worldview basics, John's “ambush” conversion before basic training, and a sticky metaphor you won't forget: courage leaks—refill it daily. Then a spicy marriage segment: weaponized intimacy is emotional/sexual blackmail, nagging erodes respect, and headship looks like Jesus washing feet—“My life should be harder than my wife's.”Support the showThanks for listening!
