    Bringing Jews to Jesus? Plus LIVE War Report from Israel with Jeff Morgan
    Jun 18 2025
    What's the current situation on the ground in Israel and how are the Israeli people responding to the war against Iran? Jeff Morgan, host of the 'SO BE IT!' Jews for Jesus outreach ministry program and YouTube channel, joins Frank from his home near Tel Aviv to discuss his work as a street apologist in Israel and how citizens are dealing with the current crisis. During their conversation, Frank and Jeff will address questions like: What is life like in Israel right now? Do citizens and politicians in Israel support the war against Iran? How did Jeff become a Christian after being raised in a secular Jewish home and practicing New Age spirituality and meditation for 20 years? What's the difference between Rabbinic Judaism and Messianic Judaism and how has diligently studying Jewish history helped Jeff share and spread the Gospel in Israel? What is the current state of Judaism in Israel and are more people converting to Christianity? Why is Christianity such a loaded word to Jewish people? Does the New Testament make the Old Testament obsolete? Tune in to learn specific ways you can support the humanitarian efforts and ministry work of Jews for Jesus and how to spark meaningful conversations with Orthodox and traditional Jews. Also, let's pray for the leaders of Israel and Iran to seek peace in the name of the only person who can save and redeem humanity--Jesus the Messiah.

  • The Deconstruction of Christianity | with Alisa Childers and Tim Barnett

    The Deconstruction of Christianity | with Alisa Childers and Tim Barnett
    Jan 26 2024
    What is this thing called "deconstruction" that has disrupted, dismantled, and destroyed the faith of so many people? Is it really a quest for truth, or is this radical spiritual makeover motivated by something else? As the deconstruction movement continues to grow in popularity, families and faith communities are often blindsided by individuals who leave Christianity and place the blame on "toxic Christians" or the allegedly “immoral" God of the Bible. How do you keep the line of communication open with "exvangelicals" and what types of questions can help foster meaningful faith conversations? This week, our friends Alisa Childers and Tim Barnett join Frank to get to the heart of deconstruction and provide answers for Christians looking to tactfully engage people who have been swept up in the movement. During this podcast episode, they'll discuss the inspiration behind their brand-new book, 'The Deconstruction of Christianity: What It Is, Why It’s Destructive, and How to Respond' and also identify some of the pitfalls that have led many to abandon Christianity altogether. Listen as Frank, Alisa, and Tim answer questions like: What is the motivation behind deconstruction? Why doesn't Alisa classify her faith crisis as true deconstruction? What's an exvangelical and where did the term originate? What are Tim and Alisa's personal experiences with exvangelicals? What are some of the glaring inconsistencies within the deconstruction movement? Should Christians interpret the Bible "literally"? If the deconstruction movement has come knocking on your door, this is the episode for you! As you'll hear during the conversation, having a strong grasp on the true Gospel and a working knowledge of apologetics can help Christians to escape the draw to deconstruction. Frank, Alisa, and Tim will only scratch the surface in this podcast, so be sure to check out the upcoming midweek podcast where they'll dive deeper into the consequences of deconstruction, its connection to critical theory, and the best way to communicate with people who call you "toxic".

  • Examining the Evidence for the Destruction of Jericho with Dr. Titus Kennedy

    Examining the Evidence for the Destruction of Jericho with Dr. Titus Kennedy
    Jul 15 2023
    Have there been any significant archaeological finds that support the biblical account of the fall of Jericho? Joshua 6 describes the details of the conquest, led by Joshua himself, that took place almost 40 years after the Exodus from Egypt. But what exactly have archaeologists been able to uncover during Jericho’s recent excavations within the last century? In this week’s podcast, archaeologist, author, and Biola Professor, Dr. Titus Kennedy, joins Frank to discuss his new eye-opening research article entitled 'The Bronze Age Destruction of Jericho, Archaeology, and the Book of Joshua' where he analyzes the current existing evidence for the historical destruction of Jericho. Frank and Titus answer questions like: Where is Jericho located and is the site contested? How do archaeologists and scholars determine the dating of the destruction of Jericho? Who are the main players that have contributed to excavations at Jericho? Does the archaeology seem to support or discredit Jericho’s biblical account? What conclusions have different archaeologists come to based on their data and findings? For decades, skeptics, scholars, and archaeologists have disputed the details of this well-known story in the Bible. But where does the evidence actually lead? Dr. Kennedy has excavated all over the Middle East, and in this exciting new episode, he'll reveal some of the fascinating artifacts that have been discovered near Jericho, and how these clues corroborate with the biblical narrative.
