  • Is Fulfilled Prophecy a Good Argument for Christianity?
    Aug 20 2026

    To argue that Christianitiy is true on the basis of fulfilled prophecies is commonplace in apologetics. But are arguments from prophecy good arguments? Are all prophecies created equal? In this talk, Joel Mohrmann proposes four criteria to consider when considering if a Biblical prophecy is a good candidate for a convincing argument from prophecy: the prophecy should be (1) Chronological, (2) Consequential, (3) Comprehendible, and (4) Corroborated. All four of these elements lead to a more persuasive argument from prophecy.

  • Debating God's Existence: Believers and Skeptics in Friendly Conversation
    Jul 5 2026

    Does God exist or not? How can we know? Can Christians and skeptics discuss this issue in a friendly way? In November 2025, a panel discussion was held at the annual meeting of the American Academy of Religion for an upcoming new book entitled "Debating God's Existence: Believers and Skeptics in Friendly Conversation." The book was based on a debate about God's existence between Dan Barker and Adam Lloyd Johnson and included chapters by contributors expanding on and critiquing the arguments presented. This panel featured the book's editor and several of its contributors discussing their contributions: Andrew Drinkard, Robert Koons, Daniel Linford, Benjamin Watkins, Paul Copan, Adam Lloyd Johnson, and Dan Barker. Other contributors to the book, who were not able to be at this panel discussion, include David Baggett, Robin Collins, David Enoch, Joe Folley, Philip Goff, Alex Malpass, Dolores G. Morris, Joshua Rasmussen, and Joe Schmid.

    Jun 24 2026

    In Acts 17:16-34, Paul addresses Greek Philosophers, Epicureans and Stoics, on Mars Hill in Athens. Paul's exchange with these ancient Greek philosophers shows that, while Paul didn't subscribe to their philosophies, neither did he reject philosophy altogether. Instead, in the spirit of evangelism, Paul engaged with their ideas and philosophies to point them to Christ. Adam shows how we can learn from this interaction by Paul.

If God really wants to have a relationship with us, then why doesn't He reveal Himself to us more? Where does God seem to be absent when I need Him? Does this mean He doesn't actually exist?
