Is the Trinity Biblical? Is it logically sound, or total nonsense? In this important interview, I ask Dr. William Lane Craig his top 13 questions on the Trinity, such as: "If Jesus is God, and the Father is God, then is Jesus the Father?" This is one you may want to listen to a couple times to really grasp. Enjoy and let us know what you think!
Could Adam & Eve have been real people who lived long before 6,000 years ago? Dr. William Lane Craig defends his historical Adam model.In this in-depth interview, Dr. William Lane Craig defends the central argument of his book In Quest of the Historical Adam: that Adam and Eve were real historical persons, but likely lived far earlier than the traditional young-earth timeline — possibly 750,000 to 1 million years ago. Craig walks through why he came to believe population genetics doesn't rule out a single founding couple, why a 2023 genetic bottleneck study functions as unexpected confirmation of his hypothesis, and why he thinks Neanderthals and Homo heidelbergensis may have shared in the image of God. The conversation also tackles some of the toughest objections to an ancient historical Adam: animal death and predation before the Fall, the enormous silent gap in Genesis's genealogies, whether Adam and Eve were created mortal, and how parents might explain any of this to their kids. It's a wide-ranging, careful case for taking both Genesis and evolutionary biology seriously — without giving up on a real Adam and Eve.Guest: Dr. William Lane Craig, Research Professor of Philosophy at Talbot School of Theology and author of In Quest of the Historical Adam: A Biblical and Scientific Exploration (Eerdmans, 2021).Interview conducted by Colin Barke of Glaube ist frag-würdig ("Faith Is Questionable"), a German podcast on faith and doubt — https://letscast.fm/sites/glaube-ist-frag-wuerdig-96b78fc0/index
Dr. William Lane Craig, Emeritus Research Professor of Philosophy at Talbot School of Theology, Biola University, delivered this talk on May 6, 2026, at Oxford Town Hall in Oxford, England, hosted by OCCA (The Oxford Centre for Christian Apologetics). In it, Dr. Craig lays out key evidence supporting the truth of the Christian faith, addressing the question of whether Christianity — despite its current cultural "trendiness" — actually holds up to scrutiny. The talk ran 30 minutes, followed by a 30-minute audience Q&A session, moderated by OCCA speaker Alanzo Paul.

Is belief in God intellectually defensible or just wishful thinking? In this classic interview with John Ankerberg, Dr. William Lane Craig lays out five lines of evidence he's used for decades to make the case for God's existence against atheism and agnosticism.
