Apologetics 315: Michael Licona vs. Richard Carrier Debate: Did Jesus Rise from the Dead? MP3 Audio

Brian Auten has posted another debate between Michael Licona vs Richard Carrier. The Debate took place Feb 11, 2010. I like this debate. It's a great discussion. I think Licona is right that the Resurrection answers all of the fact that we have. While Carrier makes a lot of assumptions he cannot possibly prove.

Dr. Claude Mariottini - Professor of Old Testament: The Graduating Class of 2010

Dr. Mariottini  has written a great post about those graduating from seminary into the mission field. I enjoyed reading his comments. He inspires  me to look at going to seminary myself.

Aquaman Becomes the Latest Casualty of the BP Oil Spill - ComicsAlliance | Comics culture, news, humor, commentary, and reviews

 I'm sure by now most people have heard of the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Today I saw a illustration commenting on it. Irony is that Aquaman was dead and just brought  back. I'm not sure about the ethics of selling a T-Shirt with this image, but I think it could be a great tool to raise money to fi the debacle being mocked. I think it says something that as near as this article suggests no proceeds will be donated to clean up the spill. I've got to admit the image is eye-catching.

Apologetics 315: Apologist Interview: James White

Brian Auten continues to posts great interviews with the best minds in Christian Apologetics today. The latest is an interview with Dr. James R. White. I've been following this guy's work for for a few years now and find him extremely consistent and valuable. You can really tell he has been doing this for a while and on top of that he is obviously not doing it for money because he takes stands and defends the very doctrines that means he is never going to become rich or well-accepted by a vast number of people. Why? Because I often find that he "unfortunately" tells the truth about things that most do not want to hear or see. No real surprise. the Bible does not warn us about pain, suffering, and persecution when we stand for God. The Bible promises us pain, suffering, and persecution when we stand for God's truth. Dr. White gives much great advice in this interview and offers insights intho his methodologies and why he does the things he does. What I really liked was how he talked about how he could see God working soveriegnly in his life. I highly recommend this interview to everyone.

Iron Sharpens Iron: Andrew Mayfield: Marian Apparitions

Anderw Mayfield was recently interviewed on Iron Sharpens Iron. It was great. He talked about the Marian apparitions that so many people are hanging their hopes on. He points out that the things that are being spoken through these apparitions directly contradict the Bible. This is a great interview and worth listening to.
