Welcome to the Thinking Fellows podcast. I'm producer Caleb and I'm joined by Dr. Rod Rosenblot,

0:05.6

Scott Keith, and Adam Francisco. Today we're going along our apologetic series and we're moving

0:11.8

forward. We've been dealing a lot with the inspiration of scripture and what Christ says about

0:16.7

the Old and New Testament. And we're hitting a new section today. And we're talking about the

0:21.1

problem of evil. It's a very interesting problem. I think it's one of the biggest roadblocks and
