I Don't Have Enough FAITH to Be an ATHEIST

Did we REALLY find Noah's Ark or are millions of people being misled by internet hype? Have we REALLY found the burial box of Jesus’s brother, James? And what do jihad and progressive Christianity have to do with America's upcoming midterm elections? Dr. Jeremiah J. Johnston, president and founder of Christian Thinkers, joins Frank to tackle some of the biggest controversies currently making headlines in archaeology, politics and the Church. Together, they answer questions like:

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?
What does Muslim Michigan Senate Candidate, Abdul El-Sayed, get wrong about illegal immigration?
What can Americans learn from the growing influence of Islam in the UK?
According to his archaeology scorecard, does Jeremiah think we found Noah's ark?
Why does every major civilization in history have a flood story?
What is one of the greatest archaeological discoveries in history related to Jesus and could it be a forgery?
What did the Israeli Supreme Court say about this archaeological discovery?
Why did Jeremiah recently call out Pastor Zach Lambert on social media?

Can we REALLY trust the New Testament writers? How do we know they were telling the truth about Jesus' resurrection and not just passing along an invented story? The brand-new updated edition of 'I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist' is officially available TODAY after the first edition sold over half a million copies.

By God’s grace, the book has been successful because it shows people why the Bible is true in a systematic manner, building the case through easy-to-graph evidence, while addressing all major objections each step of the way. This new edition adds even more evidence and responds to objections that have arisen over the past 22 years.
In this episode, Frank examines some of the strongest evidence that the New Testament writers were telling the truth, straight from one of the chapters in the updated book.

Tune in as he tackles questions like:
Why does Wes Huff surprisingly call Jesus' disciples the "duh-ciples"?
Why is it significant that women were the first witnesses to the empty tomb?
Is it possible the disciples stole Jesus' body while the guards were sleeping?
What do name trends have to do with the reliability of Scripture?
Do differences between the Gospel accounts undermine their credibility or strengthen it?
What's the difference between establishing historicity vs. inerrancy?
What are "undesigned coincidences," and how do they support the reliability of the New Testament?
Why didn't the Gospel writers exaggerate their accounts of Jesus' miracles?
Could the New Testament be an elaborate work of historical fiction?

If the Gospel writers were making it all up, they certainly had a strange way of doing it! Listen as Frank unpacks why their accounts are worth trusting, and grab your copy of the newly updated, 'I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist' (with 30% new content!) to discover even more evidence why Christianity is the most reasonable worldview.

If someone becomes wealthy does that automatically mean that someone else will become poor? It seems that some Americans need a refresher course in basic economics! This week, Frank is joined by Dr. Jay Richards, author of 'Money, Greed, and God', to make the Christian case for capitalism and free enterprise. With socialism gaining popularity among young Americans, Jay challenges some of the biggest misconceptions about wealth, poverty, and economic inequality. Tune in as Frank and Jay tackle questions like:
What's the difference between socialism, democratic socialism, and communism?
How did billionaires like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos become so wealthy, and does their success come at anyone's expense?
Isn't Sweden a socialist utopia?
Is socialism taught in the Book of Acts?
Should the wealthy pay more income taxes?
What government policies are contributing to the rising costs of housing, education, and healthcare?
Is it true that capitalism is fueled by greed, while socialism is fueled by love?
What does something as simple as a pencil reveal about how market systems work?

If you've been taught that capitalism is unchristian or that socialism is the answer to poverty and inequality, this conversation will challenge you to reconsider what you've heard. Learn more about Jay's work at The Heritage Foundation, grab a copy of his book 'Money, Greed, and God', and visit VoteYourFaith.net to research the issues and candidates ahead of the midterm elections.

Why is Ken Ham picking a fight with Frank about the age of the universe? We all know the Word of God is inerrant, but is Ken’s interpretation of the Bible inerrant? Tune in as Frank responds to Ken's recent video that criticizes what Frank teaches about creation and answers questions like:

What 3 main questions need to be addressed when discussing this issue?
Does Exodus 20 settle the debate over the six days of creation?
What about Romans 5:12 and death before the Fall?
Does believing in old-earth creation provide an opening to evolution because of time?
Why are some major Darwinists now admitting that their theory doesn't work?
What are 7 reasons why macroevolution does not fit the evidence?
Why is it important to study God's works in addition to His Word?
Is the age of the earth a salvation issue?

But wait, there's more! Later in the podcast, Frank answers questions related to the riots in France and a question from a skeptical listener, such as:
Who is behind the current unrest in France?
Why is multiculturalism false and self-defeating?
Why do 43% of young voters view Islamic sharia law favorably?
Why is it important not to judge Christianity by its misuse or abuse?
What did Jesus teach that explains why Frank chooses to focus on certain political and moral issues more than others?

Have you ever heard a pastor say, "I just want to preach the Gospel," or "Christians shouldn't get involved in politics"? It sounds spiritual, but is staying out of politics really the biblical thing to do?

With the midterm elections approaching, Frank draws from 'The War on Reality', his new book co-written with Phoenix Hayes, to challenge the idea that Christians should steer clear of politics. From the pulpit to the ballot box, he unpacks 10 biblical reasons for political engagement and why the consequences of sitting on the sidelines may be greater than you think. Tune in as he answers questions like:

What mic-drop question should you ask someone who says “Christians should stay out of politics!”
What is the purpose of government and how does it compare to the purpose of the Church?
What happens when millions of Christians stay home on Election Day?
Is the Bible really apolitical and did Jesus stay out of politics?
What three institutions did God establish, and why do they matter?
Are Christians trying to impose a theocracy when they vote according to biblical principles?
Can we legislate morality, and whose morality should influence our laws?
Does the Bible promote socialism, and is James Talarico interpreting Scripture correctly?
Is Christianity harmful to society as some people say?

Christians don't need perfect candidates or perfect policies to make a difference at the ballot box. But making an informed decision starts long before Election Day. Be sure to visit VoteYourFaith.net to explore the issues, examine where the candidates stand, and prepare to cast your vote!
