Summary

Today we’re joined by Dr. Neil Shenvi, chemist, author, and Christian apologist, to discuss his book "Why Believe: A Reasoned Approach to Christianity" and to talk all things apologetics. Dr. Shenvi came to Christ while working for his Ph.D. in theoretical chemistry at UC Berkeley after a campus ministry worker handed him Christian literature. We talk about how important it is for Christians to display Christ in their lives in these ways. Then, we scratch the surface on some answers to a few difficult, age-old theological questions. We discuss the false statement that “we’re not that bad," and Dr. Shenvi explains why the gospel itself is the strongest evidence for why Christianity is actually true. --- Today's Sponsors: Annie's Kit Clubs — all subscriptions are month-to-month, and you can cancel anytime!
