Blurry Creatures

She saw the tumor months before the diagnosis. While praying over her seemingly healthy mother, Abby Robertson had a vision so disturbing she could not bring herself to write it down. Two to three months later, her mother was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, already spreading and beyond surgery. Abby prayed with a certainty she had never felt, convinced God had prepared her to witness a healing. What happened next sent her searching for answers she is still looking for. In this episode, she and Ryan Bethea of The Exorcist Files sit down with Nate and Luke to talk about what it actually means to hear the voice of the Holy Spirit, and what to do when the answer is not the one you begged for.Abby is the granddaughter of CBN founder Pat Robertson, and she brings the whole family story with her: a man who sold every possession he owned, moved his family into a rat-infested Bronx apartment, and launched the first Christian television network with three dollars to his name. You will also hear about the honeymoon money given away in obedience and returned tenfold, a Medal of Honor recipient who survived a firefight untouched, and a businessman who asked God to rewire his brain for MIT-level math. Equal parts hilarious and holy, this conversation will make you wonder what God might be saying that you have been missing. This episode is just the beginning.

Dr. Jeremiah Johnston does not just talk about evidence. He brings it. A first-century Roman crucifixion nail, six inches long, curved from being hammered into flesh again and again. The dice the soldiers cast for a dying man's clothes. Ancient coins. A cup pulled from the waters of Alexandria that calls Jesus a magician and predates the gospels. One by one, he sets them on the table, and one by one, the story of the cross stops feeling like a story. We examine how the Shroud of Turin is scientific proof of the resurrection. We stare at the face of the man of the shroud, 374 scourge marks, a side wound between the fifth and sixth rib, and an image science still cannot replicate. Jeremiah breaks down the 1898 negative photograph that started it all, the flawed carbon dating, the pollen grains that only bloom in springtime in Jerusalem, and the burst of energy it would take to scorch that image into the cloth.Jeremiah is a New Testament scholar, the number one New York Times bestselling author of The Jesus Discoveries, and a man who has carried this evidence to Tucker, Shawn Ryan, and the World Economic Forum at Davos. And he comes to Blurry Creatures because he embraces the same thing we do. The supernatural is real, and the modern church has a truncated view of it. We get into the cup that calls Jesus a magician, the graffiti that mocks the crucifixion, his own angel encounter on a New Jersey highway, and the one question that ends the skeptical argument.
