Episode 40 - The Evidence for the Resurrection Is Stronger Than Most Christians Realize (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Join us for our next podcast: What Is The Bible? This final episode of the Christian Evidences podcast offers a thoughtful, evidence-based conclusion to the Christian Evidences podcast: you may choose not to believe Christianity, but it is difficult to claim that the faith has no historical evidence or that its central claims appeared centuries after Jesus.
Episode 39 - What would convince a reasonable historian that the gospel story is true (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode we compare Jesus to figures historians already trust, test the “made it up” theory against embarrassing Gospel details, and ask why the first Christians would invent a message that brought them persecution, not power. From the empty tomb and the guarded burial to the disciples’ bewilderment, the conversation keeps circling one question: what kind of evidence would convince a reasonable historian that something truly happened?
Episode 38 - How truth won over tribal identity (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This episode argues that early Christianity spread because it claimed truth rather than tribal identity, backed that claim with resurrection and miracle reports, and offered a countercultural way of life that shaped ideas like human dignity, freedom, and equality. The conversation also traces how that truth-seeking mindset influenced Western culture, science, and social reform.
Episode 37 - The scholarly case for Jesus (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This episode explores the historical case for Jesus and the resurrection, debating how evidence, bias, and dating shape what we can reasonably conclude. An argument is made that the earliest Christian message centered on the resurrection, and that the New Testament documents reflect an early, difficult-to-explain historical movement rather than a later invention.
Episode 36 - The strange message of Christianity (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Today we discuss how Christianity ran against the grain of both Greco-Roman and Jewish expectations: it offered a spiritual kingdom instead of a political one, valued truth over social status, and promised eternal life and self-sacrificial love in a world shaped by shame, honor, and power. The conversation argues that these surprising, countercultural elements help explain why the message was both hard to accept and powerful enough to spread.
