The Found Cause

We respond to a YouTuber  @flexcathedra  on an earnest question that theologians on both sides of Protestantism and Catholicism often sweat and avoid: does God make wicked men?

Sebastian regales us with his trip around northern Italy. Was it a glorious, God-centered land, upheld by the God-preserved standard of the Catholic Church? Or was it the well-known hollowed-out shell of Christendom, taken over by the Roman Catholic pontiff?

We respond to a video from  @FatherDavidMichael  , a Roman Catholic Priest who says he won't debate to defend Catholicism anymore, because Scripture is just a matter of opinion, and if you don't believe in Roman Catholic tradition, you are lost. A strong position? Let's discuss! Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/foundcausepodcast Podbean (download episodes): http://foundcause.podbean...

Truth - what is it? How do we win arguments? How do we determine what is true, day-to-day? These are head-y questions, but we bring them down to Earth, while stomping all over the idea that truth can be determined by yourself.

Triggered by a comment on a  @BeauMiles  video and a  @CosmicSkeptic  video, we discuss the meaning of life, and the many worldly philosophies that try to discern it (Nihilism, Buddhism, Stoicism). We then compare to the Bible, from Ecclesiastes to Romans, comments by R.C. Sproul, John Piper on Christian Hedonism, and a book called "Long Obedience in the Same Direction). Buckle up, we're about to...

We discuss with David, a mature LDS man, on the LDS (Mormon) view of the reliability of Scripture, and how that compares to the Christian view.

Many Catholic apologists deny that saints are worshipped, even Mary (mother of Jesus). But to anyone with eyes to see, it is obviously a major issue in the Catholic Church that has gone un-corrected for almost 1000 years now, and has made it's way into official Church dogma. Let's correct that! Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/foundcausepodcast Podbean (download episodes): http://fo...

Brad Wilcox gave a viral LDS speech a decade ago - how does it hold up to historical, and modern Mormon theology? Can it compare to real, Christian grace?

Creatio ex Nihilo - Creation from Nothing. It's a concept often taken for granted, as Christians, but is opposed throughout history (and today) with devious persistence. Let's talk about how true Creation differs from cults like Mormonism and JWs, Secularists, and the other pagan religions of old.

We respond to  @CopticOrthodoxAnswers  as they defend the Coptic Orthodox Christian doctrine of worshipping images (as they helpfully translate from the often-used word "icons").

We review the debate(s) between Jimmy Akin of  @catholiccom  (Catholic Answers) and James White of  @AominOrg  focusing on how we have peace with God. The bold new technique Jimmy uses, employed by Trent Horn in the previous debate, is "Catholic doctrine is now exactly what Protestants believe!". Lame, and a lie - let's talk about that.

A Church of the East (a sect of it) Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel was stabbed at the pulpit in Sydney, Australia recently. His assailant motives are reportedly Islamic, in retribution for a apologetic the bishop gave against Muhammad on a Muslim podcast. Let's discuss violence, in both the Quran and The Bible, and see if violent Jihadists are supported, or going against, the Quranic teaching. Follow us...

We talk with Alex, an disarmingly friendly Roman Catholic, who asks deep and philosophical questions on how Protestants can defend a non-Transubstantiation view of the Eucharist, ultimately boiling down to a debate on Church Authority. A long one, but worth the listen if you want to hear how you directly but politely engage in the root of the Gospel issues between Roman Catholics and Protestants....

We rank our top 5 favorite characters from The Bible. What are yours? Are ours even close? And what makes a "favorite"? Let's talk about it!   Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/foundcausepodcast Podbean (download episodes): http://foundcause.podbean.com/ @ Us On Twitter: @found_cause

We are often faced with a claim by Roman Catholics (and Eastern Orthodox, and Mormons...) - there are 40,000+ Protestant denominations! How am I ever supposed to know the true Church, if it's not insert my church here? So... let's count them. Will we get to 40,000? Let's find out.

 @Drzakirchannel  puts up a challenge to Christians, and says he will convert if they successfully answer it. We do that - How to Refute the Christians when they Claim Jesus (pbuh) is God? — Dr Zakir Naik? Islamic apologetics does not do well with cross examination.

Another famous debate clash between Trent Horn, part of Catholic Answers, and James White, a Reformed Baptist theologian. They did 2 debates, but this one on Sola Scriptura was generally received as a more equally matched one. So, did James White beat Trent? Let's talk about it.

Our 200th episode! What have we planned? Probably something that will not go viral... but that's pretty consistent. Looking at the Psalms - the hard ones we don't sing in church. Why not? How should we read them, in the 21st century? Psalm 14, Psalm 18, Psalm 109, Psalm 137 - let's go!

We talk thru Titus, which is a highly under-rated book of The Bible. The roles of men, women, slaves, and a profoundly-succinct presentation of the Gospel - all in 3 chapters!

Upcoming atheist YouTuber  @CosmicSkeptic  (Alex O'Connor) has been making the rounds the last couple years, giving philosophical attacks against Christianity and theism as a whole.

A response to an older video from  @PintsWithAquinas  and  @TheCounselofTrent  , where Trent Horn says that non-Catholics can still be saved. A rejection of the Gospel? Let's talk about that.

With have a detailed discussion with one of our commenters, who has an interesting argument that Christian Law, as described in the Bible, is not good or practical for modern life, and that modern Christians are not following it as a result.

What do we do with modern-day "prophets", or people claiming to see visions from God? Is it wrong to "test" God by being skeptical? Let's discuss that, and all the movements (Mormons, Islam, Pentecostals) who need to think about this!

A old, but impactful, movie called 'Bruce Almighty' aired years ago with a small budget. It quadrupled it's spend, cemented Morgan Freeman as a stand-in for God, and warranted a major sequel. How did it impact American culture? Was it Biblically accurate with the way it portrayed God? The answers might surprise you!
