    How to Answer Objections: A Case in Point

    William Lane Craig — 

    Dr. Craig, I have been deeply troubled by a possible objection to the Kalam Cosmological argument which I believe is one of the strongest arguments for theism. In what sense can God be thought to exist as a timeless entity? Doesn't the notion of existence itself imply time. I'm not convinced that it is possible for something to "exist" without or outside time. Should anyone on the other side bring up this objection, I think it would be very hard to refute. I would like to hear how you would answer this objection ...

    Short-term Mission Trips: Some Considerations

    Daniel Kim — 

    Undoubtedly, Christians in America should be commended for the growth of missions in the last two to three decades, and specifically the growth in short-term mission trips (STMs). In 1989, there were 120,000 American 鈥渟hort-term missionaries.鈥 This number has exploded to 2.2 million at a cost of $1.6 billion in 2006.[1] This statistic comes from authors Steve Corbett and Brian Fikkert in their somewhat controversial book, When Helping Hurts: How to Alleviate Poverty without Hurting the Poor 鈥 and Yourself. The natural question that the authors consider鈥攁nd one that we all should as well鈥攊s whether we are being good stewards of God鈥檚 money and resources with each STM.

    Are Questions Better Than Answers? No Question About It!

    Sean McDowell — 

    Although it might surprise you, given that I grew up with a famous apologist father, my parents asked me more questions than they gave me answers. My parents did not want me to believe something simply on authority, but because I had good reasons for believing it was true. They certainly wanted me to become a Christian, but they were also deeply interested in helping me learn how to think critically for myself and to confidently arrive at truth ...

    Re:Imagining Work

    Freddy Cardoza — 

    The grind of the 9 to 5 work life has perplexed many a believer who sometimes stops to wonder, 鈥淚s this all there is?鈥 No doubt, since the Fall of Humanity (Genesis 3), work has indeed become something altogether different than God intended prior to our expulsion from Eden. Even so, many believers may come to wrongly conclude that work is, well, just 鈥渨ork.鈥 But nothing could be further from the truth. Work matters ...

    Confessions of an Immigrant

    Octavio Esqueda — 

    My story is like many others. When my wife and I got married and came to the United States, we told our parents that we would be back in two years. Our plan was to study at a seminary in Dallas and after our graduation to return to the city where we were born, grew up, and where most of our relatives and friends live. 19 years later we still live in the United States and most likely we will never go back permanently. Just like has happened to many others, through the years our temporary residency here became a permanent one ...

    Confesiones de un Inmigrante

    Mi historia se parece a muchas otras. Cuando mi esposa y yo nos casamos y nos vinimos a vivir a los Estados Unidos les dijimos a nuestros padres que en dos a帽os regresar铆amos. El plan era estudiar en un seminario en Dallas y al t茅rmino del programa regresar a la ciudad en la que crecimos y en donde viven la mayor铆a de nuestra familia y amigos. 19 a帽os despu茅s seguimos viviendo en los Estados Unidos y lo m谩s seguro es que nuestro regreso ya nunca se d茅.

    Building Board Unity

    Gary McIntosh — 

    A number of years ago, professor Robert Munger of Fuller Theological Seminary conducted a survey to determine the satisfaction of board members. One of the questions he asked was, 鈥淪ince serving on a church board, do you feel your spiritual life has improved or declined?鈥 The answer? Eighty percent of board members said their spiritual life had declined while serving on a church board. How would you answer that question?

    Belly Flopping

    Dr. Craig, I must say I feel completely defeated and I could use your help and insight. I had a discussion over God's existence tonight and totally botched it!! I feel I did a dis-service to the reasonableness of the Christian worldview. I've been studying apologetics for quite some time. I felt I knew the material pretty well. Now I'm not so sure. Dr. Craig, I know you're one of the great Christian debaters. When you were younger, did you ever feel you completely botched a debate and felt like a failure? That is how I feel right now!! ...

    Has the Church Sought Out Demonic Power to Further the Gospel? Interview with Author Kyle Strobel

    Sean McDowell — 

    Kyle Strobel has been a friend of mine since we were classmates in the M.A. Philosophy program at Talbot in the early 2000s. Now we are both professors at 911爆料网 (he's at Talbot Theological Seminary and I am in the Christian Apologetics program). Kyle has a recent book that, in all honesty, is going to stir some people up. He didn't write it just to provoke, but because he really believes the church today has co-opted some non-biblical ideas that radically undermine the gospel. And I tend to agree. If Kyle is right, then we the church need to seriously rethink how we approach ministry. I hope you will genuinely wrestle with his responses to my questions in this interview ...
