Dr. Holden and Dr. Zukeran joined to launch a series on Pat’s book, The Apologetics of Jesus. In this episode, they define miracles, explain their importance, and how they uniquely authenticated Jesus as the promised Messiah and divine Son of God. The discussion also engages with challenges to miracles, including classic objections from Enlightenment thinker David Hume.

In this episode, Dr. Joseph Holden and Dr. Patrick Zukeran explore the apologetics of Jesus, focusing on the nature and purpose of miracles. Based on Pat’s book, The Apologetics of Jesus, they examine how Jesus used miracles to confirm His claims, address Hume’s arguments against miracles, and distinguish genuine miracles from satanic counterfeits. Through biblical and philosophical insights, the episode affirms the credibility and significance of miracles in Christ’s ministry and apologetics today.

“Are America’s universities educating students – or indoctrinating them? We are in the midst of a cultural revolution, and many believe the epicenter of this revolution is on the college campus. This week on Evidence and Answers, host Patrick Zukeran interviews Corey Miller, president of Ratio Christi and author of The Progressive Miseducation of America. Discover how postmodernism, Marxism, and Woke ideology came to dominate higher education – and how Christians can respond with truth and hope. Join us this week on Evidence and Answers.”

Is the New Testament historically reliable? Were the Gospels written too late to accurately preserve the words and deeds of Jesus? Join us as we talk with Ben Shaw, president of Core Apologetics and author of Trustworthy, about alleged contradictions in the Bible, the reliability of oral tradition, the identity of the Gospel writers, and the historical tests scholars use to evaluate ancient documents. If you have ever wrestled with doubts about the Bible, this is a program you won’t want to miss.

Have the teachings of Jesus been accurately preserved, or were they changed over time? Can we really trust the New Testament when critics point to oral tradition, anonymous authors, and alleged contradictions in the Gospel accounts? This week, we welcome theologian and apologist Ben Shaw, author of Trustworthy: Thirteen Arguments for the Reliability of the New Testament, as we examine the historical reliability of the New Testament and whether we truly have the authentic teachings of Christ. Don’t miss this fascinating and important conversation.

What is apologetics, and how did Jesus model it perfectly? Dr. Holden and Dr. Zukeran unpack the tools Jesus used – testimony, reason, and evidence – and explain how these form the foundation of our modern defense of the faith. Their insights encourage believers to be equipped to engage the culture with clarity, confidence, and conviction.

If homosexuality is a sin, why would God make some people gay? Why did God order the genocide of the Canaanites and other people groups? Isn’t God guilty of racism? At a recent students’ conference, these were some of the tough questions students asked. Join Pat and co-host Keith as they answer some tough questions from the audience.

Is it true that there are many more gospels than what is in the Bible? How do you know God is blessing you, and that you didn’t just “get lucky”? How do we know the Bible has not been edited and changed over the centuries? If the Bible is the word of God, why are there so many translations that seem to say different things? These were some of the tough questions high school and college students asked at a recent Evidence and Answers Conference. Join Pat and co-host Keith as they address some tough questions from students.

Many Christians graduating from College or in their careers find themselves confused about their faith and without direction in life. One of the greatest needs young people have, is the need to be discipled and challenged to dream and accomplish great things for Christ. The Kanakuk Institute has been discipling and raising a new generation of Christian leaders for decades. Join Pat as he interviews Keith Chancy, the founder and director of the Kanakuk Institute and hear how this ministry is inspiring young people in their faith and producing young men and women who are impacting our world for Christ.
