End the Stalemate | with Dr. Sean McDowell
When was the last time you had a REAL and MEANINGFUL conversation with someone who disagreed with your Christian worldview?

63+ Million Reasons to Join The White Rose Resistance | with Seth Gruber

Where is the Resurrection Predicted in the Old Testament? with Dr. Chip Bennett

But where exactly are these resurrection prophecies located? And why do so many Christians have trouble picking them up and making the connection to the prophecies that were fulfilled through Jesus in the New Testament? This week, Dr. Chip Be...

Jesus, Contradicted with Mike Licona
Do most Christians have the wrong definition of inerrancy?

Why do your kids believe what they believe about the world and the purpose of life? Are you equipping them to make good decisions now and in the future when you’re no longer there to protect them?
