Christianity Still Makes Sense

We love those in the LGBTQ community. It is confusing then to hear people claim we don't. But what does that look like? Bobby continues his dialogue with Dr. Robert Gagnon. He is considered the foremost scholar on the traditionalist position. He's credentialed from the Ivy League system at Dartmouth, Harvard, and Princeton and currently serves as a professor at Houston Baptist Seminary. I will han...

Sexuality plays such a central role in our lives, particularly in our culture today. But, some Christians want to distort Jesus' teaching on this topic. Dr. Robert Gagnon is considered the foremost scholar on the traditionalist position. He's credentialed from the Ivy League system at Dartmouth, Harvard, and Princeton and currently serves as a professor at Houston Baptist Seminary. He is the autho...

While CS Lewis was one of the best, if not the best, Christian writers of the last century, there are some areas where his theology was a little unorthodox. We explore a few areas of incongruency and seek to point you in the right direction as you consume his material.

As many a believer has known the soul pinch of deep innate confusion and frustration over thinking they knew God’s will only to doubt they ever did after all. Thinking you know his will and having what you thought turn out to be a sham is a great recipe for disillusionment. Perhaps that’s even you. Let’s see if we can untangle some of the mystery, while also keeping proper expectations of His will...

Welcome to the show that loves doubters. Here at Christianity Still Makes Sense, we love it when doubters or skeptics share their thoughts on one of our videos. Paulogia, a former Christian examining the claims of Christians, responded to a video Bobby released on Cross Examine’s YouTube channel on Divine Hiddenness. The link to Paul’s video is in the description. We thought it would be a good ide...

He tells his story and answers questions about to react as a Christian parent if your child comes out. Joe has written several books, such as: When Homosexuality Hits Home: What to Do When a Love...

Welcome back to the show that loves doubters! Today, Bobby speaks with Justin Brierley. Justin is a UK broadcaster, writer, and speaker who hosted the Unbelievable? show and Ask NT Wright Anything podcast for many years. He currently hosts the Re-Enchanting Podcast and a newly-launched documentary podcast series, The Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God. Justin's latest book, also called, The Surpr...

Everyday multiple sets of parents are confronted with the words, “I’m gay” by their children. For some parents, that’s grounds for a celebration, for others it creates shock and confusion, and for some, it creates panic, fears, and perhaps even anger. Given the increased number of Gen Z’s identifying as LGBTQ+ the changes are all too likely that many parents feel utterly ill-equipped on what to do...

Gender and sexual identity are two areas that confront Christians today. They have divided the church more in recent years, and those who stand outside traditional views have felt shame and have been mistreated. As we discussed on a recent show, Bobby's approach to these topics has shifted. But there are still very real, very personal, and very difficult questions that remain. In this episode, we...

This week, we’re going to equip ourselves apologetically with the verses that the LGBTQ+ community takes out of context to validate their arguments. It’s important to know these verses and how to give a proper response. This isn’t the first-time people on the opposite side of the argument have used the Bible to support their views. 

While so much LGBTQ+ comes at us year-round, the intensity only escalates in June. And yet, how should the church respond to this movement? What should our posture be? What’s the way forward? In today’s episode of Christianity Still Makes Sense I’m joined with Dr. Bobby Conway for a conversation to address our response to Pride month.

When I(Tim) was deconstructing, it was often hard to know what Christian thinkers to trust. As I sorted through larger than life questions I would bounce from book to book and video to video trying to find someone that was authentic, educated and didn’t sugarcoat the hard questions I was dealing with. Timothy Keller was one of those voices. Today we remember who Keller was, look at his impact on o...

You’ll never be able to make sense of Christianity apart from making sense of the spiritual war we’re up against. There’s no shortage of doubters who have walked away from the faith on account of denying the war in the name of naturalistic materialism. Ours, however, is a world of two realms: the seen and the unseen. The visible and the invisible. The apparent and the not so apparent. The natural...

If you are deconstructing, your grandma might blame it on the devil.  You might think she is crazy but don't count out her explanation just yet. But even if you aren't deconstructing, you might know someone who is, and everyone should be aware of the schemes of the devil. We look at five tactics of evil one today on Christianity Still Makes Sense. 

Bobby looks at some clips from a YouTuber known as Paulogia, he’s an apostate who walked away from Christianity and spends his time trying to bring others along to his grandiose insights. And then seeks to build the case for the resurrection of Jesus Christ. 

Have you had a run in with the devil? If you have, please let us know in the comments. Surprisingly, four out of ten Christians (40%) strongly agreed that Satan “is not a living being but is a symbol of evil.” In light of that thought, we'd address the topic of spiritual warfare as well as it is seemingly infiltrating our culture at large. Hollywood’s endless fascination of the unseen realm as dep...

Do you ever find yourself in an ethical snag, a snag, because you just aren’t sure if what you’re concerned about is ethically wrong or not? Are there areas in your life you feel stuck on what’s permissible or not? On today’s show, we are going to consider how to navigate ethical grey areas in our lives. christianitystillmakessense.com

At Christianity Still Makes Sense our passion is to help doubters and encourage those deconstructing to think otherwise. It’s not surprising to hear stories of people in such situations describe how they can’t get behind the ethics of Scripture, so in exchange for a crack at hedonism many have ditched Christianity to join the cultural party of pleasure without boundaries. But do morals matter? Can...

On today’s episode of CSMS, we are going to take a deep dive together as I’ll have Bobby unpack for us his moral argument from guilt that he developed for his doctoral work at the University of Birmingham in England. It was the late R.C. Sproul who used to say, “Every time I hear an atheist say he doesn’t believe in God, I stop him dead in his tracks and ask, ‘What do you do with your guilt?’” Tha...
