How Can Christians Change Culture

2/29/2024
For far too long Christians have prioritized living separate from the world, compartmentalizing their lives into two spheres–the sacred vs. the secular. However living this way disregards Jesus’ admonition to be salt and light in the world. But how can a Christian be “salty” and be a source of light if he or she hides behind a false understanding of what it means to be in the world but not of it. Watch as Dr. Harry Edwards leads a discussion on this topic with radio co-host Lenny Esposito and special guest Pastor Jason Kim.

In the West today there seems to be an indifference with regard to the role Christians play in shaping culture.

On this episode of the Apologetics.com Radio Show, Dr. Harry Edwards, along with Dr. Jacob Daniel and Lenny Esposito discuss the role Christians play in shaping culture.

What Role Does Christian Scholarship Play in the Church?

2/6/2024
C.S. Lewis said “To be ignorant and simple now -- not to be able to meet the enemies on their own ground -- would be to throw down our weapons, and to betray our uneducated brethren who have, under God, no defense but us against the intellectual attacks of the heathen. Good philosophy must exist, if for no other reason, because bad philosophy needs to be answered.” On this episode Dr. Harry Edwards leads a discussion with Dr. Jacob Daniel and Lenny Esposito on the importance of Christian scholarship in the service of the church. Here we make the case for it, explain why the church has abdicated the role of being experts in the arts and sciences, and a way forward to recapture a love for knowledge in the church.

What Role Does Faith Play in Politics?

8/27/2023
Coming on the heels of the recent Republican debate, Americans are once again animated by the issues that affect their lives and the prospect for a better future. As members of this republic we are all involved and responsible for what happens in this nation, what laws are passed, and what policies are adopted that enhance "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." Christians happily engage in politics and are concerned about the direction the country is headed, especially when it comes to moral issues. However, there appears to be an increasing number of churches that are confused about the role faith plays in politics. On this episode of the Apologetics.com, we try to answer the question: What role does faith play in politics? We also engage the topic of whether there is any virtue in voting for the lesser of two evils; why it's legitimate to include the subject of politics in the art and science of Christian Apologetics.

Why Do We Hate Our Bodies?

8/4/2023
There appears to be an all-out war against our bodies to fully subject them to the Will and fantasies of our minds. If it’s the hope for a bureaucratic state to raise our children, our desire for technology to “fix” nature, our dependence on augmented reality and media, our total denial that we should live healthy lives, or the massive social experiment of transgenderism in remaking the body in the image of our minds, we are beset on all fronts for accepting our body for what it is. Using Yukio Mishima as a foil, Logan Zeppieri and Anthony Costello consider the “language and logic” of the body and what Christian theology provides us as an answer to the dissolution of one of our most divine and precious gifts from God—our body.
