If God Is Perfect, Why Did He Create the World? Skeptic Calls It His Best Answer (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What happens when a skeptic walks into the Ask A Christian Podcast ready to poke holes in God's perfection — and walks out saying it's the best answer he's ever heard? That's exactly how this episode kicks off. Nate and the panel tackle a classic philosophical challenge: if God is already perfect and lacking nothing, why would He bother creating anything at all? Doesn't "wanting" something disprove perfection? The answer (need vs. want, and the self-sufficiency of the Trinity) landed hard enough
Gloria Steinem Dies at 92: Was Her Feminism a CIA Op? Plus Utah's Anti-VPN Law (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Gloria Steinem, the "trailblazing" feminist icon, died this week at 92 — and on this episode of the Ask A Christian Podcast, Nate takes NPR's glowing obituary apart line by line, from Steinem's early CIA-linked work in the 1950s to the population-control ideology of Paul Ehrlich's The Population Bomb. Was second-wave feminism partly a Cold War project? We dig into the receipts, and unpack what Scripture actually says about family, work, and the sanctity of life along the way. From there, the sho

Read excerpt
What happens when modern church welcome classes turn serving into corporate HR personality tests? In this episode of the Ask A Christian Podcast, Nate and the crew break down church integration, the obsession with finding “spiritual gifts” through repurposed Myers-Briggs tests, and why discovering you like coffee doesn’t require a spiritual revelation.Then, we dive into a major legal and cultural battle: the Maine Supreme Court upholding a father’s sole authority over a child’s religious upbring
Are You a 'Lazy Christian' for Believing Faith Alone Saves? (Plus Trump's Lake America) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Are you a "lazy Christian" if you believe Jesus did all the work on the cross? That's the accusation Nate got hit with during a TikTok run-in with some rabid Catholic apologists — and it kicks off this episode of the Ask A Christian Podcast. Nate breaks down why sola fide (salvation by faith alone) doesn't mean you sit on the couch — Paul and the martyred disciples believed the exact same thing and nobody called them lazy — and gets specific about where he actually disagrees with Catholic doctri
Are Christians Under the Law of Moses? & Can God Be Blamed for Evil? (Live Q&A) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It's TikTok Tuesday on the Ask A Christian Podcast, and host Nate — fighting through a head cold and a stack of Bible verses — throws open the mic to anyone willing to debate him live. What starts as a rapid-fire rundown of Old Testament law (are Christians actually under the Law of Moses, or is that a misreading of Exodus and Leviticus?) turns into hours of unscripted, back-and-forth apologetics with callers of every stripe: skeptics, agnostics, a self-described "former Christian," and even a f
