loved hearing a great way to study better. the case for a gangrene arm and amputation was so eye opening and simple just never thought of that analogy
I want to say this popped up in my notifications as "Why Jesus was a cat" lol.
Great Podcast, my highschool friend group all listen to you so we can defend our faith in a very atheist school setting
This is a find! I have been searching for something like this. It's better than my expectations! Thank you! To God be the glory!
how can Americans defend themselves from the government. this is the logic behind our right to bear arms. you can't limit law abiding Americans to find common ground..man's heart is wicked he will find means of mass destruction. rental trucks just one example.. No doubt laws need to be in place to keep weapons in the hands of law abiding citizens
?
While I have enjoyed many of your episodes and agree with your logical approach to proving the diety of Jesus. I certainly don't agree that we should hand over any of our God given rights as outlined by our constitution just to satisfy the emotional needs of liberals.
