Show Notes

Kim raises the flag of caution when discussing the “Red Wave” of the 2022 elections.  We must reclaim the American Ideal of Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

Guest Dr. Douglas Groothuis, Christian philosopher and apologist, logically argues the rational case that Christianity is true.  Referencing his book, Christian Apologetics:  A Comprehensive Case of Biblical Faith (with a new edition coming out in February, 2022), Dr. Groothuis defends why Christians believe what we believe.  Those who do not believe in God usually have an obstacle in their way; the most frequent one is they have never understood the true Bible and have only heard an interpretation.  The example he uses is “racism.”  The Protestant Bible is composed of 66 books (the Catholic Bible has 73 books), that span thousands of years, based on our Creator and Redeemer’s continued pursuit of a relationship with each and every one of us.  Christ inspired the greatest religion on earth.  There are a number of passages in the Bible that show us that Christ is God in the flesh.  In Mark 2 we are told that Christ, the Son of Man, has the authority to forgive sins on earth and is the Lord of the Sabbath; Jesus tells us that He is Divine.  The inspiration of Christ is seen throughout the New Testament as told by eyewitnesses or those who spoke to eyewitnesses.  The story of redemption makes sense because Christ’s human dimension fulfills prophecy.  Two scientific explanations that Dr. Groothuis addresses are the Big Bang Theory and the “fine tuning” argument.
