Is the God of the OT the Same God of the NT?
There’s no shortage of accusations claiming the Bible depicts a vision of two Gods: the grumpy, moody, and often volatile, curmudgeon like God of the Old Testament, and the mushy, judge free, glorified sugar daddy God of the New Testament. Is this the case? Does the...
Is Hell An Eternal Restraining Order?
By Al Serrato Making sense of the existence of a place like Hell is a common struggle for the Christian apologist. Almost immediately, we are placed on the defensive, being asked to justify how a "loving" God could condemn any of his creation to a place of constant,...
Can Moral Guilt Feelings Ever Be Objective?
By Bobby Conway The feeling of moral guilt is a universal experience – that inward gnaw or inner ouch that we have done something wrong. It is that feeling a line has been crossed, a law has been broken, which leaves one wondering if we are genuinely guilty. But are...
Would It Have Been Better If God Had Not Created Us?
By Al Serrato There has always been evil and suffering in the world, and how to make sense of it is a principal object of Christian apologetics. Often, the argument is made that God gave us free will, and as a result, people have the liberty to choose to do evil. But...
Who Made God?
By Bobby Conway Have you ever found yourself in a conversation with a skeptic only to be asked in gotcha fashion, “Well, who made God?” Asking the question, “Who made God?” is like asking, “How did Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata taste?” It just doesn’t fit. The question...
An Atheist’s Call To Make Our Case
By Bob Perry St. Francis of Assisi may have died 800 years ago, but his influence still looms. He was a man who venerated nature and lived a life of great sacrifice in service to God and his church. But within the Christian ecosystem, he has become most famous for an...
Is a Perfect Being Possible?
By Al Serrato Many atheists claim that the God described in the Bible is not possible. They raise philosophical challenges meant to show that inherent in the very nature of God are contradictions which make belief in him foolish. One such challenge I encountered went...
Can Atheism Account for Objective Morality?
By Ryan Leasure Do objective morals exist? That is to say, are certain actions right or wrong irrespective of what people think? Philosphers and moral scientists have wrestled over the question of objective morality for centuries. Prior to the Enlightenment,...
Got Doubts? Stop Doing This!
By Erik Manning From working in public apologetics ministry for a few years now, one common mistake I see from Christians struggling with their faith is that they try and prematurely flex their apologetic muscles by spending tons of time listening to atheist...
Norman L. Geisler: A Student’s Tribute
By Brian Huffling I first heard about Dr. Norman L. Geisler when I was in high school. I bought his When Skeptics Ask. I glossed over it but thought it was beyond me. During my senior year of college, my wife and I decided to move back to my native Charlotte after...
The Mind-Blowing Meaning Behind the Sign of Jonah
By Erik Manning Recently I stumbled across what I thought was a rather silly meme: Oof. Here’s the thing: No matter if you believe Jonah is historical or ahistorical (and some Christians, like C.S. Lewis, believed it was the latter), this meme misses the point....
What Our Perpetual Fight With Entropy Tells Us
By Al Serrato Many years ago, when I was younger and much less wise, I decided it would be a good father-son project to invest in an older car that I could restore. (Note to fathers: it’s a much better bonding idea to find something your kids like than the other way...
The 5 Most Illogical People You Will Meet on the Internet
By Alisa Childers It has happened to many of us. We post an encouraging Bible verse like Psalm 145:9 on Facebook: "The Lord is good to all; he has compassion on all he has made." By noon an atheist from somewhere in social media land has found the post and leaves a...
Giving Atheists a Hand
By Al Serrato My seventh-grade nephew needed some help the other night on social studies. He was working on the Paleolithic Age - the Old Stone Age - a time when man first started working with stone and bone tools. That got me thinking about the greatest "tool" of all...
9 Famous Thinkers Who Said They’d Rather Go To Hell Than Worship God
By Erik Manning C.S. Lewis famously remarked that “the gates of hell are locked from the inside.” In other words, the residents of the damned are there based on personal preference. It’s not because they’d rather be in heaven but only lacked sufficient...
Why It Is Foolish To Insist There Is No God
By Al Serrato “The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” If this passage from Psalms is correct, then many people today - including numerous scientists and other well-educated folks - are fools, for they insist that God does not exist. While...
Without Training, The Church Will Create More Jon Steingards
By Erik Manning Recently Jon Steingard made headlines after he announced over Instagram that he had lost his faith. Steingard was the lead vocalist of the Christian music group Hawk Nelson, which became popular in the early 2000s. Since they had so many fans, this...
No, Dan Barker. Covid-19 Doesn’t Disprove God
By Erik Manning Not one to let a good crisis go to waste, former minister and atheist activist Dan Barker tells us that the coronavirus proves that the Christian God doesn’t exist. Why? Because God promises to answer prayer. People have prayed for COVID-19...
6 Ways Atheism Is A Science-Stopper
By Luke Nix Introduction: Science vs. Christianity? It is commonly claimed that Christianity is a science-stopper. What is usually put forth to justify this claim is that many Christians are content to look at nature and say, "God did it," without looking further to...
