Last month, we tackled a big question: Aren’t all religions the same? During that episode, we discussed the case for Christianity and received a lot of feedback, especially objections to the Bible and the church.
So this month, we’re diving into another crucial question: Why should we trust the Bible? Today, the Bible’s authority in America is at an all-time low, partly due to misconceptions about its teachings. People have concerns about topics like misogyny, sexuality, war, hell, and God’s actions in the Old Testament.
Additionally, there’s a widespread belief that the Bible is purely man-made and lacks evidence of divine origin. In this episode, we’ll address these issues and more, aiming to set the record straight on the Bible.
