The Gospels Are History Not Myth

Sometimes complicated issues can be made very simple. Here are some good reasons to think the Gospels are the preserved testimony of eye-witnesses from the 1st century. We will talk about the early second century writings of Papias, the introduction to the gospel of Luke, the riddle of names in the gospels and the issue of genre. All these elements are like arrows pointing to one big fact; the gospels contain the record of eye-witness testimony and attempts to treat them as though they are a hod...

Why Every Pro-Choice Argument Fails

When it comes to the topic of abortion there is usually a lot more heat than light. This video is meant to be an analysis of abortion for the sake of clarity. The central question of "what is this thing that we are aborting?" Once this is answered, the issue of abortion becomes crystal clear. The answer to this ONE question is also the answer to every pro-choice argument. It's simple. When we realize the nature of the thing being aborted we see that every pro-choice argument fails and this is wh...

Please Stop Saying Faith Is Belief Without Evidence

I am very happy to report that the Christian definition of faith is NOT belief without evidence! I'll establish this by looking at specific passages of scripture which refute this definition. The problem is that by saying "faith is belief without evidence" we are no longer talking about the way we hold to a belief. We are saying something about the evidence for the Christian faith. Specifically we are saying there is no evidence. I have a problem with this... and so should you. This ministry exi...
