"The Cosmological argument is a family of arguments that seek to demonstrate the existence of a Sufficient Reason or First Cause of the existence of the cosmos... The kalam cosmological argument traces its roots to the efforts of early Christian theologians who, out of their commitment to the biblical teaching of creation ex nihilo, sought to rebut the Aristotelian doctrine of the eternity of the universe." The argument is extremely simple: 1. Everything that begins to exist has a cause. 2. The universe began to exist. 3. Therefore, the universe has a cause. This is part 2 of our apologetics study as we work through "The Blackwell Companion to Natural Theology." James Sinclair, co-author of the chapter on the kalam cosmological argument with William Lane Craig, joins the show to discuss the scientific evidence in support of premise 2. We look at the FRW mode, astronomical evidence for the Big Bang, the Hawking-Penrose singularity theorems, the BVG theorem, quantum gravity approaches, and the exceptions to each of these approaches. Come join the conversation and bring your questions! James D. Sinclair (MS Physics Texas A&M, BS Physics Carnegie-Mellon) is a senior anti-air warfare analyst for the United States Navy with a specialty in the constructive (digital only) modeling of air-to-air combat. Some career accomplishments include analytical support for the fielding of the AIM-9X Sidewinder missile, combat utility evaluation of the F-35 Lighting II, and presentations at public symposia such as the Military Operations Research Society (MORS) and the Combat Identification Systems Conference (CISC). He began to interview cosmologists in the early 2000s on the topic of the beginnings of the universe, bringing Navy knowledge integration methods to the formulation known as the Kalam Cosmological Argument. This ultimately led to a collaboration with philosopher William Lane Craig and two co-authored articles: “The Kalam Cosmological Argument,” in The Blackwell Companion to Natural Theology and “On Non-Singular Spacetimes and the Beginning of the Universe,” in Scientific Approaches to the Philosophy of Religion. He also co-authored the article "Fine-Tuning and Indications of Transcendent Intelligence" with Robert Spitzer.

Could our universe have supported life if the laws and constants of nature were even slightly different? Through engaging analogies—like a bullet hitting a single fly on an empty wall and personalized number plates—we explore the powerful philosophical concept of "fine-tuning." Join Jacob and Ankit as they discuss why our universe seems precisely arranged for life, and why "chance" alone may not explain it. Links and citation: Record a question and stand a chance to be featured on SAFT Podcast: https://www.speakpipe.com/saftpodcast Natural Theology Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLaYfapFz2p2UJKBOrNSfqJbegqZoRGTn- Check out William Lane Craig's book 'Reasonable Faith' for a thorough defense of all the major arguments for God's existence.Equipping the believer defend their faith anytime, anywhere.

The Renaissance of Academic ApologeticsOver the past 40 years, we’ve witnessed a remarkable resurgence in academic apologetics. Influential philosophers like Alvin Plantinga and William Lane Craig have made significant strides in defending Christian theism through rigorous analytical philosophy. This renaissance is not just about arguments; it’s about training the next generation of apologists. Institutions like the Society for Christian Philosophers and various seminaries are equipping students with the tools they need to engage thoughtfully with contemporary challenges to the faith. Cultural Apologetics: A New ApproachTraditional apologetics has focused on arguments for and against Christianity, but we must also consider the cultural landscape. Cultural apologetics seeks to establish a Christian voice within society, addressing the moral and intellectual climate that often hinders people from considering the Christian message. As Paul Hume articulates, it’s about making Christianity not just true but also satisfying. This approach is essential for reaching a generation that is increasingly skeptical and disengaged. The Role of Apologetics in Spiritual FormationApologetics should not be an isolated discipline; it must be integrated into the fabric of Christian life. Families, churches, and educational institutions should prioritize teaching apologetics as part of spiritual formation and evangelism. This means actively engaging with opposing worldviews and fostering a culture of inquiry and defense of the faith. By doing so, we prepare ourselves and our communities to articulate the hope we have in Christ. As we navigate the complexities of our world, it’s crucial to remember that the future of apologetics is ultimately in God’s hands. We are called to work diligently and smartly, making the case for our faith compellingly and lovingly. Douglas Groothuis, Ph.D., is Distinguished University Research Professor of Apologetics and Christian Worldview at Cornerstone University and the author of twenty books, including Beyond the Wager: The Christian Brilliance of Blaise Pascal (InterVarsity, 2024).

Agnostic philosopher Philip Goff has been on a 'surprising rebirth' journey recently. After announcing his embrace of a 'slightly heretical' form of Christianity, he says he has come to believe in a God of limited power. Renowned Christian philosopher William Lane Craig engages Goff in a conversation on the universe, suffering and Christian faith, as they debate whether a 'limited' God makes sense of science, philosophy and the resurrection. After hosting the conversation, Justin Brierley is joined by Peter Byrom for post-debate reflections on what happened during the spirited dialogue between the two philosophers.

In this fourth installment on the Problem of Evil, Dr. Jacobs explores the complex relationship between divine providence and human freedom. What does it mean that God delegates subsovereignce to creation? And how does divine foreknowledge interact with human self-determination? Tune in as we examine biblical figures like Abraham, Job, and Saul alongside the desecration of goodness and the atheist's problem with evil.

William Lane Craig considers his new Systematic Philosophical Theology a gift to the church. After having read Vol. 1, I agree 100%. This interview is one of the first Dr. Craig has done on the book. We discuss why he wrote it, what he covers in this volume (and the next ones), what makes a philosophical theology unique, and what this multi-volume study means to him personally.

Episode 117Does the universe have a beginning? If so, does it require a cause? In this episode, we explore the Kalam Cosmological Argument, a powerful philosophical and theological case for the existence of God. Originating in Islamic philosophy and championed in modern times by thinkers like William Lane Craig, this argument follows a simple yet profound structure: (1) Whatever begins to exist has a cause, (2) The universe began to exist, (3) Therefore, the universe has a cause.We'll break down each premise, discuss objections from skeptics, and examine how contemporary science—like Big Bang cosmology and thermodynamics—intersects with this ancient argument. Whether you're a believer, skeptic, or just curious, this episode will challenge your thinking on the origins of everything.Find our videocast here: https://youtu.be/4olNCURgX94Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):⁠https://uppbeat.io/t/reakt-music/deep-stone⁠License code: 2QZOZ2YHZ5UTE7C8Find more Take 2 Theology content at https://take2pod.wordpress.com/

Wesley Huff was recently on the Joe Rogan Experience, one of the largest podcasts in the world. A number of skeptics, atheists, and others have responded to his appearance. Because Alex O'Connor has one of the biggest channels, and he raises some of the best objections, William Lane Craig and I decided to focus our response to ten clips in this video: "How Wes Huff Got The Bible Wrong on Joe Rogan" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I0qzvDSmKi4). We focus our response on some of the clips that relate to the identity of Jesus, and don't address some other issues such as the Dead Sea Scrolls.WATCH: Reacting to Wesley Huff on Joe Rogan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MC-qf90_iQ4&t=206s*Get a MASTERS IN APOLOGETICS or SCIENCE AND RELIGION at BIOLA (https://bit.ly/3LdNqKf)*USE Discount Code [SMDCERTDISC] for 25% off the BIOLA APOLOGETICS CERTIFICATE program (https://bit.ly/3AzfPFM)*See our fully online UNDERGRAD DEGREE in Bible, Theology, and Apologetics: (https://bit.ly/448STKK)FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA: Twitter: https://twitter.com/Sean_McDowell TikTok: @sean_mcdowell Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/seanmcdowell/Website: https://seanmcdowell.org

William Lane Craig is one of the most popular theologians and Christian apologists today. We actually have a lot of respect and admiration for him. However he, like many other Protestants, falls into some seriously dangerous pitfalls when following Sola Scriptura, to the point of denying core attributes of the God we profess to believe and adore. Transcript: Joe: Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer and before I say anything else, I need to start with this. I love William Lynn Craig.

Christianity for Thinking People: The William Lane Craig Interview Can Christian faith stand up to rigorous thought? The answer is a resounding yes and you can see why in this interview with Dr. William Lane Craig on his latest project, Systematic Philosophical Theology. This innovative work explores why Christianity isn't just for the heart but for the head, it isn't afraid to ask hard questions, and shows how Christianity can be a thrilling intellectual adventure for those who crave a thinking person's spirituality.

It's Friday, February 14th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus and Jonathan Clark Myanmar's military bombed Catholic cathedral The ruling military regime in Myanmar bombed a newly designated Catholic cathedral earlier this month, reports International Christian Concern. The Sacred Heart of Jesus Church, located in Mindat, Chin State, was designated as a cathedral by Pope Francis on January 25 — just two weeks before it was bombed on February 6. The bombing destroyed the cathedral's roof and blew out the windows, rendering the building unusable. Fortunately, the area had been evacuated in anticipation of the attack, and no deaths were reported. Chin State is the country's only Christian-majority state, with about 85% of the population ascribing to the faith. Nearly 90% of Myanmar's overall population is Buddhist. According to Open Doors, Myanmar is the 13th most dangerous country worldwide for Christians. More Evangelicals growing in number in Costa Rica Evangelical Focus reports that a new study shows Evangelicals are increasing in Costa Rica, an historically Catholic country. Fifty percent of the Central American country's population identify as Catholic. Thirty-three percent identify as Evangelical.  This comes despite 73% of respondents saying they were raised Catholic and 23% saying they were raised Evangelical.  Evangelical Costa Ricans are also more likely to be younger and attend church weekly. One-third of world's population now identify as Christian Lifeway Research shared several encouraging trends for global Christianity this year based on a report from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. First, the number of Christians continues to grow, reaching 2.64 billion this year, about one-third of the world's population. Second, the growth of the religiously unaffiliated is slowing and even projected to decrease in the coming decades. Third, Evangelicals are the fastest growing Christian group, projected to reach 620 million by 2050.  Fourth, Christianity is growing the fastest in the Global South, especially in Africa and Asia. Africa is projected to have the largest Christian population by 2050.  And fifth, the percentage of the world's population without access to the Gospel has fallen to 27%. That's down from 54% in 1900. Psalm 22:27-28 says, “All the ends of the world shall remember and turn to the LORD, and all the families of the nations shall worship before You. For the kingdom is the LORD's, and He rules over the nations.” RFK, Jr confirmed as Trump's Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., whose nomination by President Donald Trump as Secretary of Health and Human Services was highly scrutinized by lawmakers, was confirmed to that post by the Senate on February 13 in a 52–48 vote, reports The Epoch Times. PRESIDING OFFICER: “On this vote, the yeas are 52, the nays are 48. The confirmation is confirmed.” Republican Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, a polio survivor who previously voiced concerns about Kennedy's vaccine views, voted against confirming Kennedy. He was the only Republican to cast a no vote. Kennedy will head the Department of Health and Human Services, which manages 13 agencies, including the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the National Institutes of Health. Kennedy has promised significant changes throughout the department which has a $1.8 trillion dollar annual budget. Under the “Make America Healthy Again” campaign, Kennedy aims to curtail what he calls the chronic disease epidemic, removing toxic chemicals from the nation's food supply, overhauling dietary guidelines, and taking aim at ultra-processed foods, reports FoxNews.com. The Children's Health Defense founder has also called for a review of advertising rules for pharmaceutical companies and has urged Trump to ban pharmaceutical advertising on TV. He also believes in eliminating liability protections for drug companies. Kennedy told The Epoch Times in September that he would revamp the National Institutes of Health to focus on the causes of autism, autoimmune diseases, and neurodevelopment diseases instead of developing drugs and serving as an incubator for pharmaceutical products. RFK, Jr.: “God sent me President Trump” Before Robert F. Kennedy, Jr was sworn in as the new Secretary of Health and Human Services in the Oval Office, he offered praise for Trump's gutsy leadership. KENNEDY: “For 20 years, I'm up every morning on my knees and prayed that God would put me in a position where I can end the childhood, chronic disease epidemic in this country. On August 23 of last year, God sent me President Trump. “He's kept every promise that he's made to me. I'm so grateful to you, Mr. President. A lot of people told me that I couldn't trust President Trump. I better get it in writing, and we did a handshake, and everything that he told me he was going to do, he has done. “I genuinely believe that you are a pivotal historical figure, and you are going to transform this country. President Trump has promised to restore the American Dream in this country. A healthy person has a thousand dreams. A sick person only has one. 60% of our population has only one dream – that they get better. “President Trump has promised that he's going to restore America's strength. But we can't be a strong nation if we have a weak citizenry. 60% of our people are sick. 77% of our children cannot qualify for military service. “We need a man on a white horse now. We need somebody who is willing to come in and has the spine and the guts and the strength to challenge orthodoxies, to stand in the way of vested interests, and to break institutions that have turned against our democracy. President Trump has shown again and again that he is that hero. We need a revolutionary figure, and you are that figure. And I'm very grateful for you for giving me this opportunity.” Wikipedia founder comes to Christ And finally, Larry Sanger, the 56-year-old co-founder of Wikipedia in 2001 who grew up in the Lutheran Church, has been a lifelong religious skeptic until his conversion to the Christian faith in 2020, reports The Christian Post. An agnostic, he became intrigued by philosophical arguments for God's existence, particularly the "First Cause" argument, according to a new blog on his personal website. He began to personally study the Scriptures for himself, downloaded the YouVersion Bible app, “and immediately made Bible study a serious hobby.”  Christian apologists Stephen Meyer and William Lane Craig made him think deeply. After devouring the four gospels, Sanger said in 2020, “I should admit to myself that I now believe in God, and pray to God properly.” 2 Corinthians 5:17 says, "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new."

Dr. Craig is interviewed concerning the claims of agnostic textual critic Dr. Bart Ehrman.

Can a "real" scientist believe in God? Physics professors Brian Keating and Michael Dennin engage in a fascinating discussion about the existence of God, exploring the intersection of science and faith. From cosmic origins to the nature of miracles, these two accomplished scientists examine different perspectives on religion, including insights from Judaism and Catholicism. They tackle challenging questions about the Big Bang theory, multiple universes, and whether scientific evidence can prove or disprove God's existence. The conversation features reactions to arguments from both William Lane Craig and Neil deGrasse Tyson, offering a balanced and nuanced exploration of one of humanity's most fundamental questions. This inaugural episode of The God Question brings together scientific expertise and personal faith journeys, demonstrating how two physicists with similar backgrounds can arrive at different but respectful conclusions about the divine.

This is the fourth in a series of episodes dedicated to a young woman and returning cohost, Dagmar from The Netherlands. This episode is with special guest and leading philosopher, William Lane Craig. Dagmar wasn't available for this recording, but Signe from Denmark joined in for this conversation about why there are so many different versions of Christianity, what matters most, and why Bill Craig is a Christ-follower.    Dagmar has co-hosted many Finding Something REAL episodes in the past four years. Although Dagmar is interested in, learned a lot about, and is drawn to Jesus, and chose to get baptized when she was a child, she has not yet decided to take a leap of faith as an adult. She has a comfortable life and enjoys partying with friends and admits that were she to give her life to Christ her life would change and people would view her differently. She's grown up in a secular culture and for this series, reached out to some friends for new faith questions including some about the credibility of Jesus, why there are so many variations of religion and Christianity, and the history of Christianity.      ABOUT WILLIAM LANE CRAIG: William Lane Craig is a Visiting Scholar of Philosophy at Talbot School of Theology and Professor of Philosophy at Houston Christian University.

PART 4 Dr. Sean McDowell's YouTube interview of William Lane Craig (October 18th) followed ours on October 15th. I was completely unaware of what Dr. Craig has been doing since I first became of aware of him in his 2011 debate with New Atheist Christopher Hitchens. The discussion on the historicity of Adam stunned and deeply disappointed us. Here is our response. It was a long time coming, and was perhaps the most difficult episode of the Christian Atheist we have ever done. It is no fun criticizing another Christian, especially one who has done so much under Christ's banner. The episode is very long. If you'd like to listen to the whole thing without interruptions, it is posted on YouTube. We post it here in parts to allow breathers in between.   Let us turn again to God's word, and trust that God alone speaks truth.

Send us a textJoin us for an exciting conversation with renowned Christian theologian Dr. William Lane Craig as we explore his foundational book, Apologetics: An Introduction. Originally published in 1984, this work remains deeply relevant for Christians today. In a world filled with philosophies that challenge the Christian faith, Craig offers a clear, rational defense of two central pillars: the existence of God and the resurrection of Jesus Christ. We'll dive into how these themes equip believers to stand firm in their faith and respond thoughtfully to critics. Dr. William Lane Craig is known for his work in Christian apologetics, philosophy of religion, and his defense of the Kalam Cosmological Argument. He is a professor of philosophy and a leading voice in debates on the existence of God, the resurrection of Jesus, and philosophical atheism. His expertise and contributions make his book Apologetics: An Introduction especially valuable, as it provides historical context and philosophical rigor in defending Christianity, which remains crucial for believers today. His depth of scholarship enriches any discussion of these timeless theological topics.Apologetics: an introduction: https://a.co/d/eBpOARY

As I was reading stuff online I came across an article from Roman Catholic apologist Dave Armstrong against William Lane Craig's defense of monothelitism.Armstrong blames Craig's error on Sola Scriptura and rejecting the "infallibility" of the Roman Catholic church.While I agree that Craig is wrong about monothelitism, I also believe Armstrong is wrong about why.This episode addresses both the error of monothelitism and the error of Roman Catholic epistemology. I believe Craig's philosophy is the problem. I also believe history disproves Armstrong's "infallible church" idea and that Scripture is the authority for determining who Jesus is.Sources Cited:William Lane Craig, "#75 Monotheletism," Reasonable Faith, September 22, 2008.Dave Armstrong, "William Lane Craig's Christological Errors (Monothelitism +)," Patheos, Updated April 5, 2018.Dave Armstrong, "Sola Scriptura Can't Definitively Refute Christological Heresy," Patheos, Updated June 14, 2020.William Lane Craig, "Does Christ Have Two Wills or One?" drcraigvideos, July 15, 2022, educational video, 0:07 to 0:56."Third Council of Constantinople (A.D. 680-681)," New Advent, Accessed August 18, 2024."Discourse I" in "Four Discourses Against the Arians (Athanasius)," New Advent, Accessed August 18, 2024."Gregory of Nazianzus - Critique of Apollinarius and Apollinarianism," Early Church Texts, Accessed August 18, 2024.Scriptures Referenced:Isaiah 53:11Galatians 3:132 Corinthians 5:211 Peter 3:18Acts 2:22,30-31Hebrews 1:2-3; 2:16-18; 4:14-15; 5:7-9James 1:13-14*** Castle Rock Women's Health is a pro-life and pro-women health care ministry.

Patrick delves into the topic of private interpretation of scripture. Exploring biblical examples and the authority granted by Jesus to interpret Scripture, Patrick highlights the importance of aligning personal interpretations with authoritative teachings. The conversation with a Protestant listener showcases the value of seeking truth and considering different perspectives.   Tom - Where in the bible does it say that Jesus gave the Church authority to interpret the Scripture? (00:38) Mike - Analogy of the problem with Sola Scriptura: The USA Constitution is similar document that people need an interpreter for. (13:45) Ron - What is the Church's teaching on limbo?
