Do Miracles Actually Exist? (S2E6)

In this episode, we tackle one of the most common objections to Christianity: miracles. If the universe is purely natural, then miracles can’t exist—but if even one miracle is real, it points to something beyond the natural world. We explore historical and archaeological clues surrounding the Exodus, examine the evidence for the resurrection of Jesus, and discuss modern accounts of miraculous healings and supernatural experiences. Are miracles just ancient legends, or is there real evidence that the supernatural still breaks into our world today?

What Is Sin And Why Does God Care? (S2E5)

In this episode, we take a deep look at sin—what it is, where it came from, and why it matters so much to God. Starting in Genesis with Adam and Eve, we explore how sin entered the world, why its consequences are so serious, and why sexual sin is emphasized throughout Scripture. Finally, we unpack the heart of the gospel: why Jesus had to die for our sins, and how God’s justice and love meet at the cross.

Is Jesus The Only Way To God? (S2E4)

In this episode, we tackle one of the most common objections to Christianity: “How can Christianity be the only true religion?” We explore why every worldview makes truth claims, what Jesus said about being the only way to God, and how Christianity compares with other major religions on the question of salvation. Through scripture, stories, and real-world examples, we explain why clarity about truth is loving—and why Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection matter more than any system of works.
