Summary
Patricia Engler is a biblical worldview apologist at Answers in Genesis and a co-host of the podcast, "Zero Compromise," but aside from that, she's also an extraordinary young lady. After graduating from homeschooling and went on to earn a degree from the University of Victoria, and then proceeded to backpack around 16 countries ... alone...! Her travels took her to many secular university campuses. Her eyes were opened to the neo-Marxist agenda that has become prevalent in our culture today, including the denial of objective truth.

| 0:00.0 | My guest today is a Christian apologetic speaker for answers in Genesis and a host of the |
| 0:06.2 | podcast produced by answers in Genesis called Zero Compromise. Patricia Engler is here to talk |
| 0:11.5 | about what is happening in Western civilization, particularly as it relates to neo-Marxism, |
| 0:17.7 | and we're going to talk about the spirit behind socialism. You guys, there's a spirit behind this |
| 0:22.5 | can be a fascinating conversation, and we're going to leave you with three things that students |
| 0:26.6 | absolutely need to keep their faith strong no matter where they end up going to college. This is |
| 0:31.6 | the Heidi St. John podcast. Stick around. I think you're going to be encouraged. |
| 0:43.2 | So Patricia, welcome to the podcast. I'm glad you're here. |
| 0:46.3 | Thanks so much. Great to be here. Well, I met you, of course, at answers in Genesis. I had the |
| 0:51.4 | privilege of being on your podcast and interviewing live the last time I was speaking for answers |
| 0:57.6 | in Genesis. Right now, you're working for them, right? In the capacity of Christian apologetics, |

| 1:19.5 | in a Christian family homeschooling in Alberta, Canada. And when I was 14, I heard a apologetic |
| 1:25.3 | speaker, so Ken Ham, who founded answers in Genesis. And before that, I didn't really care about |
| 1:29.7 | apologetics to the defense of the faith. But when he showed me that all the main issues that we're |
| 1:33.8 | seeing in culture and just the importance of things like sharing the gospel and doing missions, |
| 1:38.0 | things I knew mattered actually depended on the truth of God's word in Genesis. That just |
| 1:42.5 | totally opened my mind to want to be an apologetic speaker just like Ken Ham someday. |
| 1:48.2 | Didn't think that the Lord would actually work out the doors the way that he did, but I knew I |
| 1:52.4 | wanted to study science at a secular university to learn about evolution, help young other |
