Faith is not supposed to be blind, reckless, or detached from reality. In this episode, J. Warner Wallace (cold-case detective and Christian apologist) takes a hard look at the way many Christians think about “faith” and shows why some popular versions of faith are not just weak—they’re dangerous to the church. He explains the difference between unreasonable faith, blind faith, and reasonable (forensic) faith, and why only one of these is actually biblical.

Political violence is a feature, not a bug of progressivism.
Because progressivism is built on top of a Critical Theory lens that sees the world through "Oppressed vs Oppressor" categories rather than a Christian Theology lens of "Right vs Wrong", it trains people to see opponents not as mistaken, but as evil oppressors.
If you believe someone is mistaken, you try to persuade them (what @charliekirk11 did).
If you believe someone is an evil oppressor ("literally Hitler!", "fascist", "existential threat to democracy", virtually everything and everyone is "racist"), you will feel a moral obligation to stop them.
This is why there is radically disproportionate violence emerging on the Left.
@Texas_Shanesaw_@howertonjosh And that's just the tiniest tip of why I can't stand with most Catholics when it comes to that the Bible teaches, talking to someone on the street, etc.
What Christ did was and is by necessity substitutionary atonement, because we can't pay for our sins anymore than we can make
@Texas_Shanesaw_@howertonjosh You know, I was raised Catholic, nothing was explained and yet I saw the hypocrisy rampant all through that faith and it's people.
Christ called me while I was in a jail cell and I headed that call, got saved and baptized about a month later. After about 2 years of reading.....
Allowing for something outside spacetime opens the door to testing scriptures neutrally, investigating claims, and letting go of bias. Please read Cold-Case Christianity: https://t.co/dpGqr0apvF #Atheism#Mindfulness
I’m with this guy. We should #boycotttheNBA and stand with Jaden Ivey.
Christians must stand in support with this young man. It’s time we stop letting evil replace us.
“Cold-Case Christianity" by J. Warner Wallace offers a unique perspective as a former atheist homicide detective.
He applied investigative skills to examine claims of the Gospels and looked at eyewitness evidence to determine Christianity's historical validity.
This book will inspire confidence through courtroom techniques and stories.

Is the universe finely tuned for life—or can atheistic explanations like chance, necessity, and the multiverse really account for what we see? 🌌 In this video, J. Warner Wallace investigates the most popular naturalistic explanations for cosmic fine-tuning and shows why each one ultimately fails to explain the incredible precision of our universe. 🎯

Christian apologetics doesn't need to be a business. We need a million people who can learn and move in this space without needing to be paid. If a million of us do it, we'd get the same job done. Please read Forensic Faith: https://t.co/YqKLJ4QEYg #Apologetics#Faith
Many well-meaning (but I believe, naive) pastors have an “ick” about engaging in culture war issues.
REMINDER: Pastors are literally the only people in America who can avoid these issues, bc they get to live in a tithe-dollar-created bubble.
Every one of your people faces these issues everyday at work, with their families, in their schools… and many of them risk their jobs over them.
They need clear teaching and consistent encouragement that no, they aren’t crazy.
"It was written by man?" Yes, 40 men.
They lived over a period of 1,500 years.
That means some of them was born before the others died, and some died before the others were born.
They lived on three different continents.
They spoke three different languages.
And yet from Genesis to Revelation, there's an undeniable unity of thought.
That's literally impossible: you can't get 20 people in a room and tell them to write an essay about one topic and get agreement.
Impossible apart from the inspiration of God Almighty.
40 men wrote the Bible by putting in on paper, but YHWH is the true only author of the Book of life.
