| 10/27/26 | Top 10 Reasons We Know the New Testament Writers Told the Truth | Can we REALLY trust the New Testament writers? How do we know they were telling the truth about Jesus' resurrection and not just passing along an invented story? The brand-new updated edition of 'I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist' is officially available TODAY after the first edition sold over half a million copies.By God’s grace, the book has been successful because it shows people why the Bible is true in a systematic manner, building the case through easy-to-graph evidence, while addressing all major objections each step of the way. This new edition adds even more evidence and responds to objections that have arisen over the past 22 years.In this episode, Frank examines some of the strongest evidence that the New Testament writers were telling the truth, straight from one of the chapters in the updated book.Tune in as he tackles questions like:Why does Wes Huff surprisingly call Jesus' disciples the "duh-ciples"?Why is it significant that women were the first witnesses to the empty tomb?Is it possible the disciples stole Jesus' body while the guards were sleeping?What do name trends have to do with the reliability of Scripture?Do differences between the Gospel accounts undermine their credibility or strengthen it?What's the difference between establishing historicity vs. inerrancy?What are "undesigned coincidences," and how do they support the reliability of the New Testament?Why didn't the Gospel writers exaggerate their accounts of Jesus' miracles?Could the New Testament be an elaborate work of historical fiction?If the Gospel writers were making it all up, they certainly had a strange way of doing it! Listen as Frank unpacks why their accounts are worth trusting, and grab your copy of the newly updated, 'I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist' (with 30% new content!) to discover even more evidence why Christianity is the most reasonable worldview.If you enjoyed this podcast episode PLEASE HELP US SPREAD THE TRUTH OF CHRISTIANITY BY SUPPORTING OUR MINISTRY USING THE LINK BELOW. 100% of your donation goes to ministry, 0% to buildings!Resources mentioned during the episode:Donate to CrossExamined - https://donor.crossexamined.org/I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist - UPDATED EDITION! - https://www.amazon.com/dp/1433598655/Conversations with the Faiths - https://bit.ly/3V2CTdg | 1h 08m 03s | ||||||
| 10/23/26 | Is Socialism More Christian Than Capitalism? with Dr. Jay Richards | If someone becomes wealthy does that automatically mean that someone else will become poor? It seems that some Americans need a refresher course in basic economics! This week, Frank is joined by Dr. Jay Richards, author of 'Money, Greed, and God', to make the Christian case for capitalism and free enterprise. With socialism gaining popularity among young Americans, Jay challenges some of the biggest misconceptions about wealth, poverty, and economic inequality.

| 10/16/26 | 10 Reasons Christians Should Be Involved In Politics | Have you ever heard a pastor say, "I just want to preach the Gospel," or "Christians shouldn't get involved in politics"? It sounds spiritual, but is staying out of politics really the biblical thing to do?With the midterm elections approaching, Frank draws from 'The War on Reality', his new book co-written with Phoenix Hayes, to challenge the idea that Christians should steer clear of politics. From the pulpit to the ballot box, he unpacks 10 biblical reasons for political engagement and why the consequences of sitting on the sidelines may be greater than you think. Tune in as he answers questions like:What mic-drop question should you ask someone who says “Christians should stay out of politics!”What is the purpose of government and how does it compare to the purpose of the Church?What happens when millions of Christians stay home on Election Day?Is the Bible really apolitical and did Jesus stay out of politics?What three institutions did God establish, and why do they matter?Are Christians trying to impose a theocracy when they vote according to biblical principles?Can we legislate morality, and whose morality should influence our laws?Does the Bible promote socialism, and is James Talarico interpreting Scripture correctly?Is Christianity harmful to society as some people say?Christians don't need perfect candidates or perfect policies to make a difference at the ballot box. But making an informed decision starts long before Election Day.

| 10/9/26 | Baylor, Worse Than Berkeley? Inside Their War on Christianity | What happens when a university that claims to stand for Christianity makes it nearly impossible to host an event defending the truth of the Christian faith? And could it possibly involve extortion? That's exactly what happened to us earlier this week (for the first time in 20 years of college visits!), and Frank is bringing the receipts!What started as a frustrating encounter with Baylor's administration has exposed some troubling questions about what's really being taught at this "Christian" university.

Rowling on X?Why is it sometimes more dangerous to send your kids to a compromised Christian school than a secular university?While this topic is difficult to address, it's too important to ignore, and Frank is just getting started!

| 10/2/26 | The Dark History of Marxism vs. Christianity with Dr. Erwin Lutzer | Karl Marx and D.L. Moody were two men with radically different visions for humanity. Both witnessed poverty, injustice, and suffering, but their solutions couldn’t have been more different. So, what can these two 19th-century contemporaries teach us about the battle of worldviews we're facing today?One of our favorite guests, Dr. Erwin Lutzer, joins Frank to explore that question through his new book, Marx and Moody, co-authored with Dr. Gregg Quiggle. From Marx’s troubled home life and calls for revolution to Moody’s work among the poor and passion for the Gospel, their stories reveal just how differently these two men believed society could be changed. Along the way, they’ll tackle questions like:What was Karl Marx’s personal life like, and how did it compare to the society he envisioned?What’s the difference between socialism and communism, and why are these ideas still attractive today?Why are the family, private property, and Christianity at odds with Marxism?How did Marxist ideas make their way into American culture?Why didn’t Marxism take over England during Marx’s lifetime?How did D.L. Moody address poverty and social needs without looking to revolution?Why did Christian leaders like Moody and Charles Spurgeon speak out against socialism and communism?Marx looked to revolution. Moody looked to the Gospel. More than a century later, we're still living with the consequences.

| 9/25/26 | Is Christianity the Cure for Your Restless Heart? with Dr. Gavin Ortlund | Do you ever have one of those moments when ordinary life suddenly feels like it’s pointing to something more? You can’t quite explain it, but for a split second, this world doesn’t seem like all there is. Could this be a glimpse of something beyond this world, or even a glimpse of God?Pastor, author, and theologian, Dr. Gavin Ortlund, joins Frank to explore that possibility and the ideas behind his brand-new book, 'Why Christianity Makes Sense: A Book About Jesus, the Mysteries of the World, and the Longings in Your Heart'. From what Gavin calls the “ache”, to meaning, divine hiddenness, and the historical case for Jesus, this conversation makes the case for engaging both the mind and the heart.

| 8/4/26 | Are Open Borders Biblical? with John Ferrer & Jason Jimenez | Dr. John Ferrer and Pastor Jason Jimenez return for Part 2 of their "4 I's" series to tackle one of today's most controversial issues by asking one simple question: What does the Bible REALLY say about open borders and immigration? You'll learn:What are the 3 key distinctions between legal and illegal immigrants in the Old Testament?Aren't open borders compassionate and based on Christian ideals?Does the Church and the government have the same responsibility regarding how we treat immigrants and protect borders?How does illegal immigration exploit immigrants?What questions can you ask someone who is pro-open borders?What are the 3 institutions that God created and what are their roles?What's more concerning, Christian Nationalism or Sharia Law?What should we do as Christians if we know someone who is an illegal immigrant?Are you currently working in ministry and want to stay up to date on today's most pressing issues (like Israel, Islam, Immigration, and Identity) but don't have a ton of time? Be sure to get on the waiting list for Frank's new initiative, 'The Pastors' Brief', with Pastors Lucas Miles and Jason Jimenez, which kicks off soon in Fall 2026.
