Christians around the world just celebrated the Passion Week, Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday. But do we really understand the magnitude of the significance behind the Cross? Did Jesus have to die in order for our sins to be atoned for? Wasn't there any other way? And why does it matter that Jesus rose from the grave? In this episode, Prashanth unpacks the fundamental truths behind some of...

The English theologian, G.K.Chesterton, once famously said that if we come upon a fence that we don't understand the need for, we must first identify its purpose before we uproot the fence. It turns out that this simple thought-experiment has incredible value for the state of affairs in our culture today. In this episode Prashanth unpacks exactly how that applies in our society and how 'Progressiv...

The term 'your truth' has become ubiquitous in our culture today. But what does it mean? And is it used in a way that corresponds to reality?

Is abortion just a popular idea? Or is there an actual worldview at work behind it?

A landmark Supreme Court case in Mississippi has brought the contentious topic of abortion raging back to the surface of the national conversation. Unlike other cases, this one has the potential to possibly reverse the controversial Roe Vs. Wade decision of 1973. What is at stake here for the pro-life cause? But most importantly what is at stake for the protection of millions of unborn lives? In t...

Its hard to believe that its been 20 years since the 9/11 attacks. As America and the West continue to grapple with the complexities of Middle Eastern policies, what lessons can we learn from 9/11? Are Western and Islamic cultures fundamentally the same, or are they diametrically opposite to each other? In this episode, Prashanth breaks down the intrinsic worldview differences between Western and...

In this episode, Prashanth offers some useful tips on precisely that and offers some tactical strategies...

As Christians we should know the Gospel and certainly believe in it. But is it possible to become so familiar with the Gospel that we actually take it for granted? In this episode Prashanth unpacks how and why we take the Gospel for granted and what we can do about it.

If Christians know the truth of the Gospel and believe it to be saving truth, what prevents them from sharing the Gospel with others?

When it comes to evangelizing, people sometimes make the mistake of assuming that it is a task best left to 'experts' like pastors, theologians, evangelists or apologists. But the Bible never takes this approach. As believers we are all expected, in some manner or the other, to play an active role in the Great Commission. In this episode, Prashanth breaks down how understanding God's preferred age...

In the second part to this series, Prashanth examines how Western culture's tendency to privatize it's faith to make it 'individual' and 'personal', resulted in the inadvertent consequence of removing it's potency from the public sphere of influence. There could be something that we might call a faith that is 'our own' but if our Christian convictions fail to influence the way we practically live...

The Great Commission, referenced in Mathew 28, is one of the single greatest mandates given to Christians by Christ himself. And yet statistically speaking, the data shows that most self-proclaimed Christians don't know much about the Great Commission, let alone practice it. Which begs the question - is the Christian church apathetic to the Great Commission? In this series, Prashanth walks us thro...

How must Christians think about an issue like this? In this episode Prashanth unpacks the problem at the heart of this issue and...

Atonement is not unique to the Christian faith. But Christianity is the only faith that has the audacity to teach that there is nothing you or I can do to atone for our own sins. It was Christ, the only begotten Son of God, that came into this world to die on a Cross for our sins. But how exactly did that work? Was there no other way? In this episode, I explain why Christ, being truly God and trul...

Did God 'abuse' His son by intentionally sending him into harm's way? Was Christ dragged to the Cross, kicking and screaming, against his will? In this episode we examine the problem with this emotionally charged analogy.

A tribute to Christian apologist, Ravi Zacharias.

In this episode I share my story of what brought me into the field of Christian Apologetics. It begins in a small Middle Eastern island nation, moving to India and then to the United States.
