I Don't Have Enough FAITH to Be an ATHEIST

The great John Lennox once said, "When brilliant scientists talk nonsense, it's still nonsense." What would make him say such a thing? This week, Frank turns to Chapter 4 of his newly updated book, 'I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist,' to unpack the remarkable science behind the fine-tuning of the universe. In fact, the evidence is so overwhelming that many skeptics resort to wild science-fiction theories like the multiverse in a desperate attempt to explain it away!

Tune in as he answers questions like:
What are the three levels of fine-tuning we see in the creation of the universe?
What did atheists Stephen Hawking and Roger Penrose admit about the beginning of the universe?
What are the only two possible explanations when it comes to the extreme level of fine-tuning we see in the universe?
Is fine-tuning just a "God of the gaps" argument?
What’s so special about Jupiter?
What other remarkable local features of Earth and the solar system demonstrate the fine-tuning of the universe?
How many highly esteemed non-Christian scientists have confirmed fine-tuning?
How do some atheists respond to this evidence and why don't their theories work?
What are 5 major problems with the Multiple Universe Theory?

For a more in-depth look at the fine-tuning argument and other evidence for God, be sure to grab the updated edition of 'I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist.' It's been 20+ years since the first edition, and while the arguments for God haven’t changed, there’s now even MORE evidence to support them (including new evidence from fine tuning)!

Where did we come from? Why are we here? And where are we going? Every worldview has to answer at least five essential questions, but which one leads us to the truth? It's been 20+ years since the original release of, 'I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist', and while the arguments haven't changed, there's now even MORE evidence to support them! To celebrate the release of the newly revised and updated edition, Frank starts at the very beginning (literally!) by examining the scientific and philosophical evidence for the origin of the universe.
You'll learn:

What are the five major questions that every worldview needs to answer (not just Christianity)?
Can you make a scientific case for a Creator without using the Bible?
What are the five lines of scientific evidence (easily remembered by the acronym SURGE) that the universe had a beginning?
Is it anti-biblical to believe in the Big Bang?
What did Edwin Hubble discover with his telescope that changed our understanding of the universe?
How do we know the universe isn't eternal?
What was the greatest blunder of Albert Einstein's professional career?
What if the Big Bang is wrong? Does the beginning of the universe depend on it?
What is one of the best philosophical arguments that demonstrates time had a beginning?
Why are some atheist scientists now acknowledging that the universe had a beginning?
How do we answer the age-old question, "Who made God?"

The evidence may point to a Creator, but that doesn't tell us WHO that Creator is. To get from the origin of the universe to the God of the Bible, there's still more investigating to do! Grab your copy of the updated edition of 'I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist' and join Frank in future episodes as he continues to cross-examine the evidence!

A Muslim co-worker says Jesus never claimed to be God. Your Mormon neighbor says, “We believe in Jesus too!” Then, a Jehovah’s Witness opens the New World Translation and starts reading what sounds like scripture. Are you ready to respond? Or are you suddenly hoping somebody changes the subject?

Frank welcomes Dr. Brady Blevins, Senior Apologist at Watchman Fellowship, and 'Conversations with the Faiths' course instructor, for an eye-opening conversation about Christian heresies. What are these groups teaching their followers, and how can Christians help them recognize the deception? Tune in as Frank and Brady answer questions like:

Where does the word 'Mormon' come from and why are Mormons now trying to distance themselves from the term in favor of 'The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints'?
Is Mormonism just another Christian denomination?
How do the four functions of math (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) help us spot the errors of Mormonism, Islam, and JWs?
What are the consequences of leaving these religious groups or violating their rules?
How do all of these religious groups violate Galatians 1:8?
Why do Jehovah's Witnesses insist on using a different Bible?
What's the irony related to how Mormons, Muslims, and JWs view Jesus compared to Judaism?
Are eyewitnesses for the Book of Mormon more trustworthy than the eyewitnesses of Jesus' resurrection?
What are the gold (not golden!) plates, how do Mormons claim they came into existence, and where are they now?
What's the key difference between Mormon 'burning of the bosom' and the witness of the Holy Spirit?

When God puts someone on your doorstep, or places someone in your life, you're supposed to be an ambassador for Him. Don't be caught off guard! Be sure to check out Brady's course, 'Conversations with the Faiths', his new book, 'Trading Questions', and the many helpful resources listed below if you want to be equipped to defend the truth of Christianity and lead others to it!

How does progressive Christian, Texas Senate Candidate James Talarico, twist Scripture to defend his political positions?
Is the Bible REALLY silent on abortion?
Which is more important in the ballot box: policies or personalities?
