Hour 1: Evidence for Jesus
Is there archeological proof that Jesus existed? Did Jesus ever actually claim to be God? Is Jesus really the only way? There's a good chance that every Christian will be asked tough questions like these at some point in their lives, whether from combative skeptics, curious seekers, or even doubts in their own minds. Join us today as our guest, a noted Christian apologist, answers questions like:
- Is there evidence that Jesus was real?
- Did Jesus ever actually claim to be God?
- What makes Jesus unique from other religious figures?
- Is Christianity a copycat religion?
- What does the Old Testament teach about the coming Messiah?
- Did Jesus really rise from the dead?
- Why does the resurrection of Jesus matter?
Hour 2: Why Should I Truth The Bible?
Many people think that the Bible is a cobbled–together selection of ancient writings that have been changed so many times over hundreds of years that surely the text can no longer be trusted. Our guest admits that the Bible is a difficult book to believe. Still, he makes the case that belief in the Bible is far from unreasonable. Join us he takes a reasonable look at common questions and doubts about the Bible. Learn how to better contend for the faith by knowing what you believe and why it can be believed.
