  • Naturalism and Nihilism
    Jul 20 2022

    So today, we dive into yet another primer on debating against atheism. Though one doesn’t HAVE to be an atheist to be a naturalist or nihilist, the philosophical and quasi-religious belief in atheism is closely tied with those two topics. That being said we need to understand naturalism and nihilism so we can know how to talk about it. It’s not enough to debunk atheism we have to prove that there is an empirical and scientific basis for our theistic beliefs in God, Yahweh, Jesus, you know, the big man upstairs. So let’s dive in!

  • Male and Female He Made Them
    Apr 2 2022

    The topic of genders and biological sex has become severely contentious. The issue is primarily debated in politics and sometimes is debated between scientists. I aim to bring this topic into the realm of philosophy and theology. Let me be clear, though there is a solid Christian stance on this, this is not a message of condemnation. The aim of explaining this using the Bible, science, and philosophy is to create the conversation around this point. Many Christians don’t know how to talk about this with love and THAT is the goal of the show today.

  • The Danger of Complacency
    Mar 26 2022

    We’ve all heard this word, COMPLACENCY. Some studies say it’s a good thing, some say it’s a bad thing. Many of us though, Americans that is, don’t think about it. We are thinking about what we want to entertain ourselves with next, what the next workday is going to look like, what can I do to pass time? This is the exact thinking that leads to you being exactly where you are, constantly. Today, I aim to talk about this term, relate it to Christianity, and prove the effectiveness of a Christian worldview in relation to this term.

  • Women Across Religions
    Mar 12 2022

    Today I am going to partner with Ashli Dunn to talk about women across religions. The goal is to give an apologetic defense against how popular American culture, and the world, holds Christianity’s views on women. We are going to look at Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, and other religions to see how not just the religion operates, but also how different cultures hold women both in ancient times and in modern times. For all of this, I have the perfect guest, Ashli, a mother, wife, scholar, and church worship leader to discuss this with

  • Battles of Heart and Soul
    Mar 8 2022

    The battle for Ukraine rages and many people don’t know exactly what is going on. There is much more in play than just a quote-on-quote war. We will discuss the history of Russia as well as an abbreviated history of Ukraine to determine why what is happening is happening. To add to this, I’m going to bring on a 30+ year Air Force Aviation Veteran, my father, Robert Whitaker to discuss this history. Its also even more important to discuss the spirituality of the largest war since WW2. To this end, I’m bringing on Pastor David Maguire to find out more on that front. Let’s dive in!

  • Buddhism
    Feb 26 2022

    Not many people know much about Buddhism. It's one of the world’s largest religions, however, and it's worth breaking down its tenets in contrast with Christianity. I believe it's good to also take a look at the cultural impacts of other religions so we can break down what someone believes in contrast or comparison to what you may believe. There are many parallels between popular American culture and Buddhism, and we need to look at what that is. I will also bring in some counterarguments so we can see what that looks like. I have with me Dr. Alexander as well so it's going to be a full show!
