| 0:00.0 | There's one thing that really saved my Christian faith. And I wish that more people were aware of it because it could save their faith as well. And I mean, I may have still been a Christian. I'm not really sure if I would have abandoned Christ or if I would have just become quiet and docile as a believer. And that thing is apologetics. That thing is answering hard questions for the Christian faith. And it's weird how some Christians are actually upset even when you ask these questions. But you have to ask them. You have to talk about them. You have to go through them and you have to chase down hard questions because it will strengthen and bolster your faith in the long run. And Jonathan McClatchy is my guest today. And he talks about that. So Jonathan, you deal with people all the time every day |
| 0:39.0 | who are struggling in their faith, who are doubting believers, |
| 0:42.5 | and you help them to see the truth of Christianity |
| 0:45.7 | based on facts and evidence and reasoning. |
| 0:47.9 | What are some of the biggest reasons that you think, |
| 0:50.4 | most common reasons, cause Christians |
| 0:52.5 | to seriously doubt their faith right now. |

| 1:18.4 | This is not just quick soundbite answers, but actually chasing things down. |
| 1:23.5 | So we're going to do that today. |
| 1:24.8 | We're going to talk about some of those issues, some of those topics you just brought up, |
| 1:27.3 | answering hard questions for Christians. And you guys have to know about this resource that Jonathan, they have a free resource for Christians who are struggling in their faith. They can go to his website, talk about doubts.com. You can go there right now and get one-on-one mentoring with someone who's smart and knows what they're doing. So, but I want to, like, let's, let's just pick one of these things. |
| 1:45.1 | Like, what's one that you would say you really want a lot of Christians to be aware of how |
| 1:49.8 | to answer this question in order to save their faith? |
| 1:53.3 | Sure. |
| 1:54.0 | So I find that a lot of people who are struggling with doubts about Christianity don't really |
| 1:58.3 | have a firm handle on the positive case for Christianity, |
