In Defense of the Christian Faith

Recently, I have been debating an atheist. Like most atheists, he believes in evolution. The trouble with discussing this topic with him is that he makes no distinction between micro-evolution and macro-evolution. Now, micro-evolution is small changes within species; there are variations within species (for example, dogs will always produce dogs -- from Great Dane to Chihuahua -- they will never produce cats or any other species). This is observable in nature. Macro-evolution is major changes, from one species to a completely different species, over long periods of time. An example would be a rat evolving into an ape (seriously, this atheist brought that up and admitted that he has no idea what transitional mammal would be in-between!). I think it's rather obvious that the two are not the same (and of course, macro-evolution has never been observed). But you will recall that this atheist does not see a distinction between the two. His reasoning was that macro-evolution requi...

Recently, I was introduced to Frank Turek and his awesome ministry called Cross Examined . I had been reading his book when I heard one of the ministry's  radio programs . Below is a video clip of what Cross Examined is all about. Take a look...                         Frank is known for his book, "I Don't Have Enough Faith To Be An Atheist," and he travels the country teaching on the subject. Below is a small sample of how he does it... definitely some good food-for-thought:                       

OK, this is a feature that I haven't done in a while. The point is that if I find a site -- containing some good apologetics material -- that I would like to feature on my blog, it becomes my "featured site." If you'd like to have your blog or site featured, just let me know.... and I am aware of several great sites which I shall feature soon, so sit tight! :D But on to today's featured site... This year, I started a series called "Is Jesus God?" in which I show from the Scriptures that Jesus is indeed God. Many of these Scriptures incorporate the prophecies concerning the Messiah. You can see the first three of the series here (and I will be continuing it soon, I promise). Recently, I found a website that provides almost (if not) all of these Prophecies with Scriptural references so that you can dig into these matters for yourself: Is Jesus really God? Click here to get started, and don't forget to peruse other areas of the site; it contains som...

Apologetics 315 is offering you the chance to WIN one of a small handful of apologetics books! Just take this short survey, and you will be entered into the drawing! And while you're there, take some time to browse around the blog; it contains some excellent and informative information.

I came across this cute blog, and I just had to share it... Amanda Goes to Church is an apologetics blog which features cute pictures that very creatively illustrate the point. The blog tackles such topics as: the reliability of the Bible, the veracity of the apostles witness, the resurrection, etc. While I normally browse thoroughly through websites before "endorsing," I found this blog to be very "captivating" in the sense that the graphics "draw" one into the concept and explain the message very clearly. I thoroughly enjoyed visiting this blog and I plan to check back there often. Note: Featured Blog will be a regular, featured at the author's whim (no set date at this time). If you know of a good apologetics blog, let me know; I'll review it, and if I like it, you just might see your blog featured here! Keep checking back!
