GOT HOPE? Christianity Delivers
Tonight I happened upon a video made by a person on YouTube who refers to himself as "Prophet of Zod." The Prophet of Zod and I have been in a discussion before on YouTube in which we discussed whether we have objective moral values and duties to do what's right. He is an atheist who …
“Street epistemology” is the “application of epistemology (the study of knowledge) outside of formal academic contexts.” According to its advocates, it’s a “fun and effective way to talk to people about what’s ‘really true.’” It “helps” people reflect on the reliability of the methods used to arrive at their deeply held beliefs by identifying, understanding, …

I recently made a YouTube video entitled “11 questions that atheists cannot answer,” which attracted a multitude of responses from atheists, many of whom attempted to answer my eleven questions. Some of the answers were decent and somewhat plausible, while others were not. Below I have presented my two most important questions, along with the …

I have encountered numerous atheists or agnostics such as Richard Carrier (“Empty Tomb: Jesus Beyond the Grave”), Aron Ra (via YouTube and Twitter), and Bart Ehrman (“How Jesus Became God”) who posit that early Christian disciples, such as Peter, Paul, James, Mary Magdalene, and John, had “mass hallucinations.” They often admit that these early Christians …
Over the past year or so, I have watched a good number of YouTube videos featuring an Atheist Experience host called Tracie Harris. Atheists often pull clips from her videos to create their own videos, with titles such as “Trac(ie)’s Great Point” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dz-8Wk97S9A) and “7 Times Tracie Harris Went Beast Mode” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxBwBPHHqig&t=601s). I watched these …

“The wicked go down to the realm of the dead, all the nations that forget God." Psalm 9:17 In recent years, I have encountered many atheists who have protested what they perceive from the Bible to be an unjust “infinite” punishment from God for their “finite” actions. I wondered about the identity of the source …
Is atheism a religion? This question seems to be of interest to atheists as evidenced in an unscientific Twitter poll I recently ran that generated around 10,000 impressions and 1,500 engagements. 79% of respondents indicated that atheism is not a religion; 10% indicated that atheism is a religion; 5% indicated that they did not know …
In a video entitled "Questions no Christians Can Answer! An Atheist Creator's Collection" from the Non Sequitur Show, fifteen atheists and agnostics presented questions they believed to be challenging to Christians.

Heather is a master's degree candidate …

“What Satan put into the heads of our remote ancestors was the idea that they could ‘be like gods’ - could set up on their own as if they had created themselves - be their own masters - invent some sort of happiness for themselves outside God, apart from God. And out of that hopeless …

In 1 Corinthians 11:1, Paul gave the Corinthians excellent advice when he told them to follow his example, as he was following the example of Christ. Leading by example is not a new concept, yet it’s an often forgotten concept. As parents, we know that telling our children to “do as I say, but not …
