Creation versus evolution: the never-ending debate, right? So many want us to believe that science and faith are incompatible. But what if they're not? What if science actually supports faith and what if faith actually informs science? Chip provides helpful insight to the current debate, in a time when the disagreements are more intense than ever.Main Points Defining our terms: Microevolution: The small changes that only happen within a species. Some examples of microevolution are the mosquito's ability to resist DDT after years of exposure, and the ability of different bacterial strains to resist penicillin. Macroevolution: The vertical transition between species (from one kind of species to another kind) evolving to account for all animal and human life. Creation: The belief that God created all things out of nothing, as described in the Bible in the book of Genesis. All of life in its rich complexity happened as the result of the all-powerful, all-knowing, sovereign God of the universe who is Maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. Today's four major positions: Group 1: Classic Creationism - The literal biblical account Group 2: Classic Evolution - Random change and natural selection Group 3: Theistic Evolution - God-supervised evolution Group 4: Intelligent Design - A designer of some kind How did life begin? Evolution: Life's beginning was unsupervised, impersonal, unpredictable, a natural process. The beginning of life was random, undirected without either plan or purpose. Creation: Defined by the Bible. God spoke. Why did life begin? Evolution: Life began as a pure accident. It was random chance. There was no design, no plan, no meaning, no emotions, no purpose, and no value. Creation: You are the special creation of a good and all-powerful God. You are the climax of His creation. Not only is your kind unique, but you are unique among your kind. How did various plants and animals develop? Evolution: A simple cell evolved to more complex plants and animals through the process of time, chance, natural selection, mutations, and survival of the fittest over a period of billions of years. Creation: God created various plants, animals, kinds, and species in a harmonic balance to reflect His attributes and character. Complexity of Life Cells: Thanks to today's more powerful microscopes, we know that a single-cell organism, the most basic unit of any living thing, is incredibly complex. DNA: Is like the software of the cell, the computer program that makes it work. In fact, if you took a tablespoon and filled it to the top with this DNA, your tablespoon could contain the precise instructions to build every single species of organism that has ever existed on the planet. Astronomy: “Astronomers now find they have painted themselves into a corner because they have proven, by their own methods, that the world began abruptly in an act of creation to which you can trace the seeds of every star, every planet, every living thing in this cosmos and on the earth. And they have found that all this happened as a product of forces they cannot hope to discover. That there are what I or anyone would call supernatural forces at work is now, I think, a scientifically proven fact.” - Robert Jastrow Broadcast Resource Download Free MP3 Message Notes Resource Page Additional Resource Mentions Why I Believe & Jesus Skeptic Book Bundle About Chip Ingram Chip Ingram’s passion is helping Christians really live like Christians.

This week's program looks at Luke 24. At the first Easter, no one was saying "He is risen, indeed." Sometimes we've got doubts too. Get ready to chuckle or even chortle with Pastor “Jolly” John Lukomski and Pastor Matt “Youngblood” Clark as they take a humorous approach to Bible Study. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org

In this program, Chip tells us the integrity of the Christian message hinges on the resurrection of Jesus. He continues his look, that began in our previous program, at the proofs that Jesus is who He said He is…that He's God, that He rose from the dead, and is alive today. Main Points Did Jesus really exist? Biblical manuscripts: quality and quantity 25,000 New Testament documents that authenticate the reality of Jesus Christ External verification: Josephus (Jewish historian), Pliny, Tacitus (Roman historians) What was Jesus really like? Friend and foe agree: great man, moral teacher Claimed sinless life = John 8:46 Affirmed by history and impact The works of Jesus went unchallenged. Fact of miracles, feeding 5000 not disputed Eyewitness accounts validated miracles Critics never claimed He didn't perform miracles; they questioned His source of power to do them = Matthew 12:24 Who did Jesus actually claim to be? His own claim = John 14:6 God's claim = Mark 9:7 His followers' claim = Mark 8:27-30 His enemies' claim = John 10:33 External sources' claim – Pliny, AD 111 By fulfillment of over 700 Old Testament prophecies Did Jesus really die? At the time both friend and foe thought He died His flogging, beating, and crucifixion Medical evidence: water and blood indicate puncture of pericardium By burial preparation: 70 pounds of spices and linen His tomb was public and secure. Joseph of Arimathea's tomb: a high-profile member of the Sanhedrin Roman guards Roman seal Size of tombstone: would take up to 25 men to roll away Penalty of death for guards sleeping Could Jesus' resurrection possibly be true? Predicted by Old Testament prophets hundreds of years earlier Jesus predicted it openly and repeatedly Appeared to over 500 eyewitnesses in 12 different locations over 40 days Transformation of the disciples Conversion of Saul of Tarsus Transformation of Roman empire and the world Best legal minds: the evidence is conclusive! My testimony: “He changed my life.” What does this mean for you? It validates Jesus' claim that He is the way, the truth, and the life. = John 14:6 It gives you absolute hope for the future. = John 14:19 It offers spiritual life right now! = John 3:16-17 If you believe Jesus rose from the dead, you have all the power you need to be a Christian who lives like a Christian by His grace.

Markets taking a breather after rallying on yesterday's UK trade deal. We'll dive into the concerns that are now cropping up. Plus, Cargurus is warning tariffs could add an average of $2,500 to the cost of a new car. The CEO joins us exclusively. And health care is the worst-performing sector this week, but our trader sees opportunities in the space.

In this program, Chip tells us the integrity of the Christian message hinges on the resurrection of Jesus. If Jesus didn't rise from death to life, none of the other tenets of the faith matter. Well, you gotta live before you can die. So, Chip begins with a look at the proofs of Christ's life in Israel, and what the historical record says.Main Points Did Jesus really exist?

What if science actually supports faith and what if faith actually informs science? Chip provides helpful insight to the current debate, in a time when the disagreements are more intense than ever.Main Points Defining our terms: Microevolution: The small changes that only happen within a species. Some examples of microevolution are the mosquito's ability to resist DDT after years of exposure, and the ability of different bacterial strains to resist penicillin. Macroevolution: The vertical transition between species (from one kind of species to another kind) evolving to account for all animal and human life. Creation: The belief that God created all things out of nothing, as described in the Bible in the book of Genesis. All of life in its rich complexity happened as the result of the all-powerful, all-knowing, sovereign God of the universe who is Maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. Today's four major positions: Group 1: Classic Creationism - The literal biblical account Group 2: Classic Evolution - Random change and natural selection Group 3: Theistic Evolution - God-supervised evolution Group 4: Intelligent Design - A designer of some kind How did life begin? Evolution: Life's beginning was unsupervised, impersonal, unpredictable, a natural process. The beginning of life was random, undirected without either plan or purpose. Creation: Defined by the Bible. God spoke. Why did life begin? Evolution: Life began as a pure accident. It was random chance. There was no design, no plan, no meaning, no emotions, no purpose, and no value. Creation: You are the special creation of a good and all-powerful God. You are the climax of His creation. Not only is your kind unique, but you are unique among your kind. How did various plants and animals develop? Evolution: A simple cell evolved to more complex plants and animals through the process of time, chance, natural selection, mutations, and survival of the fittest over a period of billions of years. Creation: God created various plants, animals, kinds, and species in a harmonic balance to reflect His attributes and character.

May 4, 2025Alex KretzschmerJohn 20 :24-31

Did you know that some of the most severe critics of evolution are not Christians, not creationists, but leading scholars…non-believing, scholars who say the scientific evidence simply doesn't support evolution? Chip explains that the premise that science and faith are mutually exclusive is patently false!Main Points Defining our terms: Microevolution: The small changes that only happen within a species. Some examples of microevolution are the mosquito's ability to resist DDT after years of exposure, and the ability of different bacterial strains to resist penicillin.

Do you believe in heaven and hell? Are they specific places or just concepts? Is there any real evidence that points to a literal heaven and a literal hell? Chip explains what the Bible actually teaches about hell. And answers the serious question: How could a loving God send people to hell? Chip brings clarity and helpful insight.Main Points 7 Evidences of Life after Death: Nature Anthropology Psychology Ethics Philosophy Science: Near-Death Experience Jesus and the Bible Four basic truths At death, every person's soul enters immediatelyand consciously into relational aspects of eternal existence. One day, everyone will be resurrected and live forever. Every person will be judgedand granted the “extended capacity” to fulfill in eternity the deepest yearnings and desires of their heart while on earth. Every person will spend eternity in heaven with Christ and fellow believers, or in hell separated from God forever. Why there must be a Hell: Man's dignity and freedom demands a Hell. God's holiness and justice demand a Hell. Sin's seriousnessdemands a Hell. Evil's defeat demands a Hell. Conclusion: Will your eternal future be a blissful adventure or a horrible choice?

Ever felt like you're not enough for God because of your doubts? Like your questions somehow make your faith weaker? You're not alone—and neither was Doubting Thomas.This Sunday at Real Life, we continue our powerful series, ENOUGH, with a message about how Jesus met Thomas right in his uncertainty. And how He still does the same for us today.Through the Cross and the Resurrection, Jesus doesn't shame our doubts—He speaks peace over them and shows us we are more than enough through Him.If you've ever wrestled with your faith or wondered if God can handle your questions, this message is for you.

Have you ever had an experience that changed your opinion or attitude on something? I mean, you thought you knew all the facts—until you went through a situation that completely changed your mind. In this program, guest teacher John Dickerson will do that by sharing two powerful testimonies that'll touch your heart.Main Points Three basic evidence categories to know that Jesus' radical claims are true: ANCIENT evidence – historical writers (Josephus, Suetonius, Tacitus, etc.) EXTERNAL evidence – an objective human record of Christ's impact on humanity. INTERNAL evidence – this is evidence that can only be known through experience. The power of “currents” In life we get carried along by different currents: Popularity, achievement, material possessions, relationships These currents while alluring and momentarily satisfying, are actually taking us into anxiety and we can't get out. You'll never know for sure if the ‘current' of Jesus will carry you to fulfillment unless you get into it. The “current” available to everyone: John 3:16 This “current” is the only one that brings salvation to anyone who believes. Jeremiah 29:13 Matthew 11:28 The fulfillment of Jesus is found in the space between religion and relationship.

If you've ever felt stuck, struggled with follow-through, or doubted your ability to succeed despite knowing better—you're not alone. Tune in as Dr. Schnell shares with us the subtle ways that fear-based thinking may be running the show in our lives and what we can do about it. IN THIS EPISODE: Why fear—not failure—is often the real obstacle to success How to identify when you're operating from a fear-based loop The role of labels and personality assessments in limiting your potential.  How procrastination and overthinking disguise themselves as productivity What fear of success looks like and how it keeps you playing small How to "flip the script" and reframe disempowering thoughts Why true growth means letting go of who you used to be How your environment and community can fast-track your transformation.

Fear of the unknown is often the real obstacle. It's not failure we're afraid of—it'suncertainty. But growth begins with curiosity. You grow faster when you're surrounded by people who stretch you. Discomfort can be your best teacher—especially when you're in the right environment. Beware of limiting labels. Labels can help us understand ourselves, but they can also box us in. Don't let them define your potential. What sounds like a limiting belief is often a fear in disguise. Doubts like "I'm not enough" are often just fears asking, "What if that's true?" Flip the script and take action anyway.  

When you breathe your last breath and close your eyes one final time, what happens next? People are fascinated by that question. Is there life after death? Is it just lifeless, nothingness? Or is there evidence to say once we die, we're actually alive somewhere, somehow, in some other way? Chip gives 7 specific evidences for life after death.Main Points 7 Evidences of Life after Death: Nature Anthropology Psychology Ethics Philosophy Science: Near-Death Experience Jesus and the Bible Four basic truths At death, every person's soul enters immediatelyand consciously into relational aspects of eternal existence. One day, everyone will be resurrected and live forever. Every person will be judgedand granted the “extended capacity” to fulfill in eternity the deepest yearnings and desires of their heart while on earth. Every person will spend eternity in heaven with Christ and fellow believers, or in hell separated from God forever. Why there must be a Hell: Man's dignity and freedom demands a Hell. God's holiness and justice demand a Hell. Sin's seriousnessdemands a Hell. Evil's defeat demands a Hell. Conclusion: Will your eternal future be a blissful adventure or a horrible choice?

If you've ever wondered if the Bible is true – this program is for you. Chip puts the Bible on trial and lays out a case for the authenticity of scripture. He presents evidence that the Bible, as we have it today, IS reliable. And is the true, Word of God - just as meaningful to us, as it was to its first readers.Main Points Five plaguing questions about the Bible: Is the Bible the word of men or the very words of God? Is the Bible full of myths, legends, and fairytales, or is it historically reliable? Is all of the Bible true and trustworthy or only portions of it? Can a Bible that has been translated so many times, for so many hundreds of years, really be accurate? What makes the Bible so different from all other religious writings and their claims to truth? 7 Reasons why I believe in the Bible: ARCHEOLOGY – The Bible is a historically accurate document. REVELATION – The Bible claims to infallibly reveal the very words and mind of God. ORIGIN – The Bible is unique. Its origin, structure, and unity argue for a supernatural authorship. JESUS – believed the Old Testament to be the very Words of God and predicted the New Testament to be likewise. PROPHECY – sets the Bible apart from all other Religions. TRANSMISSION – The Bible's purityand perseverance throughout the centuries is nothing short of miraculous. IMPACT – The Bible's power to transform lives is overwhelming.

In this program, Chip asks: Is it intellectually feasible to believe that a collection of sixty-six manuscripts, by forty different authors, written in three languages, over a period of fifteen hundred years could actually be the very words of God?

What do you do when you find yourself in a crisis of faith? How can you help someone walking through the questions and doubts they are experiencing?Ian Harber came to a critical junction in his own faith after experiencing loss after loss. Doubts began to rise and yet, he didn't have a safe space to process the questions that can so often come in our journey in knowing and understanding God. But eventually, Ian found himself on the other side of that process and began to see the need for helping others find the space to process their own questions and doubts. In his latest book, Walking Through Deconstruction: How to Be a Companion in a Crisis of Faith, he shares his own story of deconstruction and reconstruction and encourages others to be a companion to those who are experiencing a crisis in faith. In this episode, Davey and Ian discuss what deconstruction is, what can happen to a person who is experiencing a crisis in their faith, and how to walk alongside those who are questioning and doubting faith as they once knew it. Whether you are struggling with questions and doubts in your own journey with Jesus or you know someone who is, this conversation will encourage patience and compassion through the ups and downs of walking with God.

Have you ever had an experience that changed your opinion or attitude on something? I mean, you thought you knew all the facts—until you went through a situation that completely changed your mind. In this program, guest teacher John Dickerson will do that by sharing two powerful testimonies that'll touch your heart.Main Points Three basic evidence categories to know that Jesus' radical claims are true: ANCIENT evidence – historical writers (Josephus, Suetonius, Tacitus, etc.) EXTERNAL evidence – an objective human record of Christ's impact on humanity. INTERNAL evidence – this is evidence that can only be known through experience. The power of “currents” In life we get carried along by different currents: Popularity, achievement, material possessions, relationships These currents while alluring and momentarily satisfying, are actually taking us into anxiety and we can't get out. You'll never know for sure if the ‘current' of Jesus will carry you to fulfillment unless you get into it. The “current” available to everyone: John 3:16 This “current” is the only one that brings salvation to anyone who believes. Jeremiah 29:13 Matthew 11:28 The fulfillment of Jesus is found in the space between religion and relationship.

A dramatic Monday in Madrid as a power outage across Spain and Portugal cancelled play for the day at the Madrid Open. Join Joel, Kim and Chris at Tennis Weekly HQ as they look back on all the events of the first week where Novak Djokovic lost for the third time in a row leaving us to question (for the umpteenth time) whether he is a serious prospect for another Grand Slam title with the French Open looming. It was also a similar story for defending champion Andrey Rublev who left Madrid with a 1-4 Masters record this year, falling out of the Top 15 for the first time since 2020.It was not all doom and gloom though as Maria Sakkari returned to form of old with a demolition job over Jasmine Paolini whilst Coco Gauff put Sunshine Swing disappointment behind her to set up a tantalising quarterfinal against teenage sensation Mirra Andreeva. The Brits also enjoyed a solid first week with Draper, Fearnley, Norrie all into R3 and Katie Boulter winning her first clay match on the WTA Tour. Emma Raducanu also revealed there is an 'informal agreement' in place with Mark Petchey on her team. And though Carlos Alcaraz wasn't in Madrid due to injury, his new docuseries Carlos Alcaraz: My Way launched on Netflix with the gang discussing what they learned about Carlitos (other than his mum being a really good cook). Joel's Game also makes a return and we question what should be done about Electronic Line Calling in this week's Mailbag as Alexander Zverev follows Aryna Sabalenka and take a photo of a dubious mark on the tennis court during his match against Alejandro Davidovich Fokina.Roland-Garros Hospitality with Sports, Travel and Hospitality GroupTo guarantee the best seats in the house with ticket-inclusive official hospitality, visit https://bit.ly/4j6RYBzSOCIALSFollow us on Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, plus email the show tennisweeklypod@gmail.com.MERCHPurchase Tennis Weekly Merch through our Etsy store including limited edition designs by Krippa Design where all proceeds go towards the podcast so we can keep doing what we do!REVIEWS***Please take a moment to rate and review the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.

GREATER THANWeek 2Jesus is Greater Than My Doubts!Notes: https://www.bible.com/events/49423592

We have all heard the stories of former pastors or church worship leaders who have walked away or “deconstructed” their faith. Chip addresses the heart of this alarming trend through an insightful conversation with pastor and author John Dickerson. Together, they will delve into the complexities of faith, doubt, and the challenges that believers face today.Main Points The Deconstruction Trend: Many young people, even from strong Christian backgrounds, are questioning their beliefs. This trend is occurring at increasingly younger ages. Creating a Safe Space: Parents and leaders must provide a non-judgmental environment for open dialogue. Listening and asking questions are vital to understanding the root causes of doubt. Empathy and understanding are more effective than immediate answers. Addressing Intellectual and Emotional Issues: Both intellectual and emotional challenges need to be addressed. Providing historical and philosophical context is essential. Acknowledging the negative aspects of Christian history while highlighting the positive impact of Christianity. The Importance of Relationships: Strong, supportive relationships are crucial for maintaining faith. Young people need close friends who share their values. Building relationships with those outside the Christian community is important. Practical Strategies: Encourage open conversations and probing questions. Pray for God to bring supportive relationships. Model authentic faith. Address hypocracy in the church. Be willing to apologize for personal failures in modeling faith. Mentoring is important. Partnering with good college ministries is important. The Power of Modeling: A vibrant faith modeled by parents has a strong influence. Admitting past failures and seeking forgiveness can open doors. Conclusion: Persistent prayer and support are essential for those struggling with doubts. God can use these challenges to strengthen faith. Parents and church leaders must actively engage in the lives of young people.

MSNBC's Ari Melber hosts "The Beat" on Friday, April 25, and reports on the economic turmoil under President Trump and his attacks on free speech. Plus, Rev. Al Sharpton and Nems join for the latest "Fallback" installment. Will Sommer and Margaret Carlson also join.

The current moral decline and theological compromise among Christians is no longer concerning – it's alarming. We see division and false teaching, even in the Church itself. What can those who care do? In this program, Chip explains how can we stand for biblical truth and winsomely communicate, even regarding controversial issues, with love and integrity - just like Jesus did.Main Points Rethinking our communication Yesterday: Apologetics were about what we believe and why. And it was aimed at answering the skeptic's questions. Today: We need to aim apologetics first and foremost toward believers, especially young people. Yesterday: We needed to master facts, data, and history to intellectually prove what we believe is true. Today: We need to model a concerned and compassionate life-style that proves that what we believe is actually relevant. Yesterday: We needed to win the debate. Today: We need to win an audience. Yesterday: We communicated on a level playing field that presumed TRUTH was an objective reality. Today: We communicate on the shifting sands of TRUTH as a subjective reality. Yesterday: The Church and the culture shared a general knowledge of the Bible. Today: Both the Church and the world are biblically illiterate. Yesterday: Committed Christian men or women were admired. Today: Committed Christian men or women have been called “dangerous”. Yesterday: We could begin with the truth and then express grace. Today: We must begin with grace in order to share the truth. Yesterday: The moral climate and the values of major institutions like education, medicine, and the media reinforced our values. Today: The moral climate of major institutions challenge and ridicule our our faith. What this means for you: The early Church had a living hope. --1 Peter 1:1-3 They believed they had an inheritance. --1 Peter 1:4, 6 We need to be sober in our thinking. --1 Peter 1:13-15 We need to have a faith that is rooted in eternity that leads to living a holy life, which leads to a fervent love for others. --1 Peter 1:22-23 Get rid of all hypocrisy, get rid of anger, and stop blaming. --1 Peter 2:1-2 Have lips of praise and encouragement. --1 Peter 2:20-24 The number one apologetic is your life. It's a holy life, with an eternal perspective, that's radically loving. --1 Peter 3:8-9 Broadcast Resource Download Free MP3 Message Notes Resource Page Additional Resource Mentions Why I Believe & Jesus Skeptic Book Bundle About Chip Ingram Chip Ingram’s passion is helping Christians really live like Christians.
