Podcasts about why believe

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss how for many Americans, Easter is one of the few times in the year they show a willingness to attend a church service. If they do, they'll likely hear about an empty tomb and the significance of the resurrection of Jesus thousands of years later. For many, the hope of new life in Jesus is enough to propel them to faith or to a deeper commitments to Jesus; but for others, they may be left with lingering questions that will serve as stumbling blocks to faith. Questions like: So what? How is this relevant for my life? And can I even believe this happened? So the question for the church is how are we going to answer those questions - what evidence can we offer for the resurrection of Jesus? Episode Links There are several series that Dr. White has given at Mecklenburg Community Church if you want to take a deeper dive into the events leading up to Jesus' crucifixion and His resurrection. These include: “The Passion,” “Risen,” “Seven Last Words of Jesus,” and “Why Believe.” And in case you did not know, past messages given by Dr. White are arranged by category at Church & Culture HERE. You'll find series on specific books of the Bible, on evangelism and apologetics, cultural topics and more. When discussing Jesus' death on the cross in today's episode, Dr. White mentioned an article from the Journal of the American Medical Association written by Dr. William D. Edwards and titled “On the Physical Death of Jesus Christ.” For those interested in reading this article, you can find it HERE. “The Resurrection of the Son of God” by N.T. Wright was another resource that Dr. White discussed, and you can find his book HERE. And one more book that we'd strongly recommend is written by Dr. White himself: Christianity for People Who Aren't Christians. It offers incredibly helpful explanations of the most common questions that people have when it comes to the Christian faith. You can find it on Amazon HERE. For those of you who are new to Church & Culture, we'd love to invite you to subscribe (for free of course) to the twice-weekly Church & Culture blog and check out the Daily Headline News - a collection of headlines from around the globe each weekday.

Neil has spent decades researching, writing and speaking against Critical Theory and the ideology that undergirds it.

[Part 2] with Dr. Tawa Andersonapologetics, apologetics profile, watchman fellowship, Christianity, deconstruction, Tawa Anderson, Daniel Ray, evangelism, defend the faith, atheism, agnostic, skeptic, postmodern, gospel, God, JesusWith the advent of modern transportation and communication technologies, we are daily inundated with news, information, and ideas from all over the world. Such easy access to so many ideas and concepts wholly foreign to our own can, at times, be overwhelming without having an anchor of truth to which we may cling. Even as believers, much of what makes the news today, much of what you hear coming from other religions, secular science or contemporary sociology tends to dismiss the Christian faith or simply disregard it as irrelevant.Our guest again this week, Dr. Tawa Anderson of New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary, gives us some encouraging reminders about why Christianity is true and how we can defend it in this day and age of skepticism and clashing worldviews.Dr. Tawa Anderson was raised in a non-Christian home and came to faith in high school. He was called to ministry and served as English Pastor at Edmonton Chinese Baptist Church from 2001-2008. After completing his PhD, Dr. Anderson taught at Oklahoma Baptist University from 2011-2022 before joining the faculty at NOBTS. Tawa is the author of Why Believe? Christian Apologetics for a Skeptical Age (B&H Academic, 2021) and co-author of An Introduction to Christian Worldview: Pursuing God's Perspective in a Pluralistic World, (IVP Academic, 2017). Related Links: Free access to some related Watchman Profiles: Watchman Fellowship 4-page Profile on Atheism by Dr. Robert M.

The world often appears to us as though it is spinning out of control. Words don't mean what they used to mean. We live amidst a great deal of moral and societal confusion. Statistics are cited that seem to show an increasing number of people who no longer believe in God. The central message of the Christian faith, the deity, death, and resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, no longer seems to be credible to our postmodern world.The good news is that the Gospel is as relevant and powerful today as it was when it was first proclaimed centuries ago. On this episode, we talk with professor of philosophy and apologetics at New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary about his 2021 book Why Believe? Christian Apologetics for a Skeptical Age (B&H Academic, 336-pages bit.ly/WhyBelieve2). Tawa's work provides Christians and non-believers alike timely and insightful reminders about why Christianity remains defensible and credible, even in a world that seems to be spiraling out of control. Dr. Tawa Anderson was raised in a non-Christian home and came to faith in high school.

God has revealed Himself to us through His Spirit, through what He has created, through His word, and through His Son. The evidence of His existence is manifold. He did not lavish us with so much so that we might think His existence is something of a mere intellectual curiosity, but so that He might bring dead people back to life.

Welcome to the fourth episode in the Why Believe the Bible series taught by my awesome dad Harry Schaefer. The underlying premise of this Why Believe the Bible series is that we can verify the truth of the Bible by looking to outside sources such as the historical record to see if what's in the historical record aligns with scripture. And we find that it does. In episodes 23, 24, and 25, we looked at ways prophetic prophecies and archeological findings prove the Bible is true. Today, we'll look into an interesting outside source by exploring the realm of medicine. To explain, I'm handing the microphone to my dad as he continues to teach from his dining room table. Here's Harry! Your friend, Bonnie Jean Next Steps: Sign up for the free 2023 Renewed Conference coming November 6-10, 2023 so that you can grow in BOLDNESS. Listen to the Entire Why Believe the Bible Series Part 1: Is the Bible True?

As a Christian, it's important to have a strong faith foundation. The more you know about God, the more you learn about you. And people. And the world around you. How can we believe that, though? Should we blindly believe the Bible is true because it claims to be the inspired word of God? Does God expect us to just take His word for it, or does He provide tangible proof from outside sources? As we've seen in episodes 24, 25, 26 and 27, God provides an abundance of proof in the way of prophetic prophecies, historical records, and even medicine. In today's final episode in the Why Believe the Bible series, we'll explore some recent and significant archaeological discoveries that once again prove the Bible is true. Listen in as my dad Harry Schaefer continues to teach from his fancy recording studio…which also doubles as his dining room. Here's Harry!

Welcome to the second episode the Why Believe the Bible series hosted by my dad, Harry Schaefer. In episode 24, we learned that one way to confirm the truth of any book, including the Bible, is to compare it to outside sources. We take what's written, compare it to known facts, and see if it matches. If it lines up, it's true. The Bible lines up with known facts, so it can be trusted as a source of truth. And two, we can use predictive prophecy. Men inspired by God wrote amazingly accurate prophecies, and we looked at one such prophecy concerning Tyre.  In this episode, we'll dig into prophecies made by both Isaiah and Jeremiah regarding Babylon and explore how these prophecies really happened and thus help prove the Bible is true. Understanding why the Bible is true is a fundamental building block of Christian confidence. Confidence leads to boldness. If you're in need of more confidence and boldness, you should attend the FREE Renewed conference happening Nov 6-10. Ten Christian women—including myself—will be sharing golden nuggets of the faith to help you become more bold in your walk with God.  Right now, I'm turning the microphone back over to my dad.

Q&A: Why Believe in God if He's Beyond our Five Senses? | Dr. Shabir Ally

Neil Shenvi talked to The Babylon Bee about the brave new world of Christian Nationalism, how to engage with Critical Race Theory vs. The Bible, and his brand new book Why Believe? A Reasoned Approach to Christianity. Neil is a theoretical chemist with a lot of books on his shelf. He also has a passion to share the Gospel with his agnostic and atheist neighbors. His new book will encourage you to think one level deeper than your typical apologetics book. Check out his new book here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09GYV79JT/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_tkin_p1_i0

Dr Sean McDowell asks, "Why should we seek truth? How does our search for truth reveal that God is real?" He spoke to Neil Shenvi (author of Why Believe) about a rarely used argument for the existence of God. Then he asked, "If you are not convinced, tell us why!"

Carl and Todd are, for the first time in quite a while, recording their podcast face-to-face within the Alliance compound. Careful to remain socially distanced—not because of COVID, but to prevent any regrettable chance of human contact whatsoever—the pair welcomes Dr. Neil Shenvi to the mix. He's a former Yale and Duke University researcher turned homeschooling father with a passion for Christian apologetics. Of course, every new generation brings with it a fresh set of challenges for the apologist. The “new atheist” may find Christianity to be, for example, oppressive of women or impossibly judgmental. Is the Bible true, or even morally good? Our guest engages with the best contemporary arguments against the faith and provides a clear and compelling case to embrace Christ and Christianity. Crossway Books has provided a few copies of Shenvi's Why Believe? A Reasoned Approach to Christianity for giveaway. Register here to get in the running.

Although Neil has a PhD in theoretical chemistry, he's made a name for himself as an expert on Critical Race Theory (and Critical Theory more generally). Is CRT just a legal theory? Can anyone know what it really is? Is CRT just a plot by conservatives to gin up votes? Should Christians take CRT and chew the meat and spit out of the bones? Kevin and Neil answer these questions and many more. They also dive into Neil's new book on apologetics and explore the wild world of evangelical Twitter.

The Christian faith will always have opponents, skeptics, and seekers who will attempt to challenge its credibility, which is why apologetics is always a necessity. Moreover, we need apologists because there are a wide diversity of intellectual challenges and personalities which must be engaged when defending the faith. On today's show, my guest is a Christian apologist with a new book that provides a unique approach to presenting Christianity to the skeptic. His name is Neil Shenvi and we discussed his book Why Believe? A Reasoned Approach to Christianity. Neil Shenvi (Ph.D., University of California, Berkeley) has worked as a research scientist at Yale University and Duke University and has published over thirty peer-reviewed papers. He is a regular blogger at Shenvi Apologetics writing on current issues and book reviews. He is married to Christina and currently homeschools their four children.

For centuries, skeptics have disputed the claims of Christianity—such as belief in an eternal God and the resurrection of Jesus Christ—arguing that they simply cannot be accepted by reasonable individuals. Furthermore, efforts to demonstrate the evidence and rational basis for Christianity through apologetics are often deemed too simplistic to be taken seriously in intellectual circles. Apologist and theoretical chemist Neil Shenvi engages some of the best contemporary arguments against Christianity, presenting compelling evidence for the identity of Jesus as portrayed in the Gospels, his death and resurrection, the existence of God, and the unique message of the gospel. Why Believe? calls readers from all backgrounds not only to accept Christianity as true, but also to entrust their lives to Christ and worship him alone. Neil Shenvi (PhD, University of California, Berkeley) has worked as a research scientist at Yale University and Duke University and has published over thirty peer-reviewed papers. He is married to Christina and currently homeschools their four children.

In this episode, apologist and theoretical chemist Neil Shenvi and I discuss a variety of topics related to Critical Race Theory (CRT) and Critical Social Justice. Neil shares his experience leaving the academy and writing on Christian apologetics. We explore the ideas behind critical theory philosophies from a Christian worldview. Dr. Shenvi's new book, Why Believe? comes out June of 2022. What is CRT? Why is it a problem? Can we “eat the meat and spit out the bones?” Is CRT a religion? Why have so many evangelicals started to utilize concepts from CRT? What is the best way to make memes and more!Join my Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/chasedavisWhy Believe?

"Why Believe in the Resurrection" (1 Corinthians 15:1-11, 17-20) by NCA EM

This week on Real Talk with Rachael I'm talking with Atheist-turned-Christian, Lee Strobel about his documentary The Case for Heaven. Lee is the former award-winning legal editor of The Chicago Tribune and a New York Times best-selling author of more than forty books and curricula that have sold fourteen million copies in total. He currently serves as Founding Director of the Lee Strobel Center for Evangelism and Applied Apologetics at Colorado Christian University. In 2017, Lee's spiritual journey was depicted in an award-winning motion picture, The Case for Christ, which showed in theaters around the world. Lee and his wife, Leslie, have been married for forty-eight years. Their daughter, Alison, is a novelist and homeschooling expert (www.goodschooling.net), and their son, Kyle, is a professor of spiritual theology at the Talbot School of Theology at Biola University. Key Points from Our Conversation: If you're in a relationship with an unbeliever, be sure to build your relationship with God while maintaining the relationship with your spouse. It's also vital to have a good spiritual mentor to help guide you. Lee wrote The Case for Heaven after a near-death experience and through his research found that the evidence shows our souls live on after death. There are two aspects of the afterlife - the intermediate state when the soul leaves the body and lives on with the Lord or apart from Him and the second state when we are reunited with our resurrected bodies and spend eternity in physical heaven or hell. The research about near-death experiences shows that the commonalities are consistent with Christian theology. There are two common misconceptions about hell - it's not a place of fire and brimstone, that's just a metaphor to indicate it's the worst place to be. There also seems to be different degrees of hell, which would be consistent with the justice of God. God doesn't send people to hell, He honors their free will choice to remain separated from Him. There is not enough research to support loved ones being able to contact us after they pass. The Bible teaches there is a chasm between the living and the dead and it's an area we're warned not to get involved with. You will never regret being courageous for Christ.
