    Middle schoolers can be argumentative. And it can drive parents crazy. But they are blossoming into young adults who will need to communicate and sometimes argue ideas in the real world soon enough. How do we equip them with the tools to not only think through their own beliefs, but to critically process new ideas, and sift through arguments to find and promote TRUTH above all?Enter the LOGIC phase of classical Christian education - the middle segment of our three-pronged Trivium. Right in the center of their education, students train their minds to know how to spot and construct sound, valid arguments and reason well, so that they can apply the facts they've learned and live as someone who listens and speaks well.In this episode, we'll hear from our two Logic teachers at Veritas Academy - Stephen Darrenkamp (who also teaches Latin) and Adam Timmins (who also teaches Omnibus and Apologetics). You'll listen in on a discussion covering:The role of logic in a student's educationThe integration with faith and reasonHow logic prepares students for rhetoric and effective communicationPractical advice for parents of argumentative middle schoolersThe broader implications of logic on students' understanding of faith, culture, and morality.

    Why Romans Still Shakes the World — The Gospel That Toppled Empires (and Confronts Culture Today) The book of Romans wasn't written in a vacuum—it was delivered into the heart of a divided, hostile empire. Long before Rome persecuted Christians, Paul sent a letter that would redefine faith, grace, politics, and morality. In this episode, we explore Romans 1:1–7, the explosive power of the gospel, and why its message still confronts cultural chaos, identity politics, and moral confusion today. From Nero to now, Romans refuses to be tamed.

    Tired of conversations that stall at “that's your truth”? We map a simple, humane path that starts with Jesus, honors real questions, and ends with a clear invitation to take the next step. Our framework moves in a logical sequence—objective truth, the existence of God, and the reliability of the Bible—so you always know where to begin, how far to go, and when to come back to the heart of the gospel.We walk through a five-minute way to share the core message using the Romans Road, then dig into the most useful reasons to believe: the Kalam and Contingency arguments, the Moral argument, and a suite of Design considerations that include information in DNA and our deep pull toward the beauty of creation. Along the way we show how two quick questions cut through relativism and bring the conversation back to reality without sounding combative or cold.From there, we turn to whether Scripture deserves our trust. Acts reads like lived history—names, titles, routes, local slang, and nautical detail that match what historians know. External historical sources such as Josephus and others corroborate people and events. The New Testament's manuscript evidence is both abundant and early, and archaeology keeps surfacing anchors like the Pilate inscription and Caiaphas's ossuary. Prophecy adds cumulative force, and the empty tomb remains the unavoidable center of the Christian claim.If you've ever wanted a clear, kind way to engage friends who have honest doubts, this conversation gives you a roadmap and the words to use. Start with Jesus, answer what's actually asked, and return to Jesus with a genuine, hopeful ask.

    Today, we're going to examine the book Why Christians Should Be Leftists by Philip Christman. While affirming areas of genuine common ground like concern for the poor, moral accountability and the dangers of unchecked consumerism we need to ask a deeper question: Can leftism be consistently aligned with a biblical worldview? This is not a partisan conversation, but a call for clarity, humility and faithfulness in a deeply polarized age.

We discuss the work of Ian Stevenson, leading researcher and pioneer for scientific reincarnation studies. While there is some interesting evidence for reincarnation, there is another supernatural explanation that accounts for the data, which must be considered.

Pastor Rusty takes us on an evocative journey through the scriptures, illustrating God's unwavering presence from Genesis to the birth of Christ in a humble manger. It highlights that God's promise to be 'with us' is alive, not just in historical events but right now, amidst our darkness, ordinariness, and uncertainties. This touching narrative reminds us that Emmanuel, 'God with us,' is a continual promise, even in our everyday struggles and triumphs. As we celebrate the light brought by hope, peace, joy, and love, we're reassured that we are never truly alone.

    It's Christmas Eve! We hope you're enjoying this time with all your loved ones! We have a special treat for you this week.   On this episode, we are joined with a returning guest, Lindsey Medenwaldt. We are also joined with three of our co-hosts - Cailee, Ana and Sarah.   Lindsey breaks down how to share your faith with others. She gives practical ways we can share our faith, and takes the pressure off feeling you have to know everything. A lot of times, as believers, we may feel like we need to know everything for others to come to Christ. But, really it's Jesus that does the work in them, we just plant the seed.   Lindsey is the executive director and resident world religion expert of Mama Bear Apologetics. She holds a Masters in Apologetics & Ethics from Denver Seminary, a Masters in Public Health, and a degree in Law. Recently, Lindsey wrote a chapter about Jehovah's Witnesses in the Popular Handbook of World Religions (Harvest House). Lindsey and her apologist husband have been married for 13 years and currently live with their three beautiful daughters in Texas. In her spare time, Lindsey loves watching British reality television and reading from her at-home library of over 2,000 books.   We hope you enjoy this week's episode!
