Stealing Standards from God




I Don't Have Enough FAITH to Be an ATHEIST show

Summary: <br> It's that time of year again! You're sitting around with family at the Christmas dinner table, and Uncle Joe insists on picking apart your Christian faith. What's the best way to respond? Ignore him while you play with your mashed potatoes? Or do you try to refute his objections? You know you need to give the reason for the hope that you have, but how can you engage with his statements without starting a family feud?<br> In this week's episode of I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist, Frank explains that every objection to the Christian faith assumes a standard beyond the person who is making the objection and gives examples of simple questions you can ask Uncle Joe (and others like him!) to place a seed of doubt in his assertion that something is wrong with the Christian worldview.<br> Frank addresses some of the most common objections to Christianity, including:<br> <br> <br> <br> God does immoral things in the Old Testament<br> <br> <br> There's too much evil in the world<br> <br> <br> Christians are hypocrites and do evil things<br> <br> <br> Christianity is too exclusive<br> <br> <br> God doesn't show himself enough<br> <br> <br> The Bible doesn't recognize LGBTQ+ rights<br> <br> <br> there's no evidence for God<br> <br> <br> PLUS--Frank shares testimonies from three people whose lives have been transformed by the Holy Spirit through the work we do here at Cross Examined!
