  17. 113Tender Hearts vs. the False Gospel of Progressive Christianity with Alisa ChildersYou would think that when hearts become open to the gospel, Christians would rejoice and get to work. Instead, progressive “Christians” are warning about conservative politics. In fact, some of them chose to use Charlie Kirk's assassination and memorial service as an opportunity to discourage Christians from engaging in politics rather than encouraging them to share the Gospel!Today, our friend Alisa Childers joins Frank to expose the subtle lies of this movement. Alisa and Frank tackle important and timely questions like:What were Alisa’s biggest takeaways from Charlie's memorial service?What is the "Third Way" strategy progressives have been advancing for years, a strategy designed to confuse believers, infiltrate churches, and brand faithful Christians as “Christian Nationalists”?How do you spot warning signs in your church?Was Charlie’s memorial service a dangerous display of Christian Nationalism?What’s the meaning behind the “I Am Charlie” movement?How do we best help those with tender hearts who are starting to move closer to God?What are the six lies of Progressive Christianity every Christian needs to recognize?Why should Christians be engaged in politics instead of backing down?You'll see why standing for truth and even your local law enforcement matters more now than ever. Be sure to pre-order a copy of Alisa's new Student Edition of 'Another Gospel', which includes discussion questions for young adults and stay tuned for upcoming guests like archaeologist Titus Kennedy, Rob McCoy (Charlie Kirk’s pastor), along with more details coming soon surrounding the security details of the tragic event that took place on 9/10/2025.If you enjoyed this podcast episode PLEASE HELP US SPREAD THE TRUTH OF CHRISTIANITY BY SUPPORTING OUR MINISTRY USING THE LINK BELOW. 100% of your donation goes to ministry, 0% to buildings!Resources mentioned during the episode:Support our ministry - https://donor.crossexamined.org/Another Gospel?

  23. 119Are You Going UP or Are You Going DOWN? Bible “Errors” Won’t Save YouEveryone you love will die. Everything you build will crumble. Everything you say will be forgotten. Everything you do will come to nothing. You and your identity will die and vanish, UNLESS...the resurrection is true. Yes, if Jesus of Nazareth really did rise from the dead--GAME OVER--Christianity is true! But wait...isn't a miracle like the resurrection a little too hard to believe for a rational person?Join Frank during his recent talk at Grace Community Church in Sarasota, FL where he draws a striking parallel between the sinking of the Titanic and the resurrection of Jesus. You'll learn why the Gospel accounts are not myths or legends, but credible eyewitness testimony that can stand up to scrutiny. Along the way, he answers pressing questions like:How do we know miracles like the resurrection are even possible and why are they so rare?What's the greatest miracle in the Bible? (no, it's not the resurrection!)Why are some atheists beginning to admit the evidence for Christianity’s greatest miracle?Do Bart Ehrman's so-called "contradictions" in the Gospel accounts defeat Christianity?What does the Titanic have to do with the afterlife and the resurrection of Jesus?Why is it highly unlikely that the Jews invented the resurrection story?How do we know Hell is real?There is an afterlife and what you do here on earth DOES matter. Not only for today, but also for eternity. The question remains for all of us: are you going up or are you going down? The choice is yours, choose wisely!Resources mentioned during the episode:Digging Up the Bible - https://bit.ly/446eWTrLet's Get Real: Examining the Evidence for God - https://bit.ly/4mCQrVBIsrael, Jordan, and Egypt Trip - https://bit.ly/4iUCUHi42 min
