  • BTM 185 - What is Truth? - The Justification of Belief
    2026/02/26
    What is truth?—and can we known it? In this episode of the Bible and Theology Matters podcast, Paul Weaver is joined by Dr. Mark Farnham, Dr. David Saxon, and Dr. Michael S. Jones to explore the study of knowledge—how we know what we know—and how beliefs are justified within a Christian worldview. Drawing from the book Talking About Worldviews: A Conversational Introduction to Thinking Philosophically, this discussion tackles foundational questions such as:
    • Is there objective truth?
    • What is the correspondence theory of truth?
    • What is the difference between belief and truth?
    • What does it mean for a belief to be justified?
    • Is evidentialism sufficient for Christian belief?
    • What are presuppositionalism, fideism, existentialism, irrationalism, and reliabilism?
    • How does postmodernism challenge traditional views of truth? The conversation also addresses:
    • The noetic effects of sin
    • The role of the Holy Spirit in understanding truth
    • The relationship between apologetics and epistemology
    • Whether Christians need formal philosophical training
    • Why logic and critical thinking matter for believers

    If you’ve ever heard phrases like “my truth,” “your truth,” or wondered how Christians should think about evidence, science, and belief—this episode is for you. This discussion will strengthen your understanding of truth, knowledge, and how to confidently and humbly defend the Christian faith. Featuring:

    -Dr. Michael Jones – Professor of Philosophy & Religion, Liberty University
    -Dr. Mark J. Farnham – Professor of Apologetics, Lancaster Bible College
    -Dr. David Saxon – Professor of Church History, Maranatha Baptist University

  • BTM 184 - Logic, Logical Fallacies, and Sound Reasoning: Christian Apologetics 101
    2026/02/19
    What is a logical fallacy? What is a sound argument? And, why does it matter for Christians today? In this episode of the Bible and Theology Matters podcast, Dr. Paul Weaver is joined by the co-authors of Talking About World Views: A Conversational Introduction to Thinking Philosophically for a powerful discussion on logic, logical fallacies, and sound reasoning in a confused culture.

    Featuring:
    -Michael Jones – Professor of Philosophy & Religion, Liberty University
    -Mark J. Farnham – Professor of Apologetics, Lancaster Bible College
    -David Saxon – Professor of Church History, Maranatha Baptist University

    Together, they explore:
    ✔️ What a worldview is—and why everyone has one
    ✔️ Why logic is foundational for defending the Christian faith
    ✔️ The difference between factual mistakes and logical fallacies
    ✔️ Common fallacies like: Ad Hominem Straw Man Appeal to Authority Appeal to Pity Genetic Fallacy Red Herring Self-Referential Incoherence
    ✔️ How to construct sound deductive and inductive arguments
    ✔️ Why truth corresponds to reality
    ✔️ How Christians can argue graciously, clearly, and persuasively

    In a world shaped by expressive individualism, emotional reasoning, and intellectual shortcuts, this conversation equips believers to think critically and biblically. As C.S. Lewis famously emphasized, Christianity is not something we would have invented—it confronts us with reality. Whether you're a pastor, Bible teacher, seminary student, homeschool parent, or simply someone who wants to strengthen your reasoning skills, this episode will sharpen your thinking and deepen your confidence in the Christian worldview.

  • BTM 183 - Can the New Testament Be Trusted - Part 2? 13 Arguments for Its Reliability | Dr. Benjamin Shaw
    2026/02/12
    📖 Is the New Testament Trustworthy? | Reliability, Archaeology & the Resurrection (Part 2)

    Is the New Testament historically reliable? Can we trust the Gospels as accurate records of Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection? In this powerful episode of the Bible and Theology Matters Podcast, Dr. Paul Weaver continues his in-depth conversation with Dr. Benjamin Shaw, author of Trustworthy: 13 Arguments for the Reliability of the New Testament. In Part 2 of this two-part series, we explore some of the strongest historical, archaeological, and transformational evidence supporting the truth of the New Testament—including hostile sources, archaeological discoveries, and the famous Minimal Facts Argument for the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.

    🔍 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
    ✅ Why embarrassing details in the Gospels actually support their authenticity
    ✅ How hostile sources like Tacitus confirm key events of Jesus’ life
    ✅ What archaeology reveals about Caiaphas, crucifixion, and the early church
    ✅ Why early Christian transformation matters for historical reliability
    ✅ What the Minimal Facts Argument is—and why it’s so powerful
    ✅ How scholars across belief systems agree on core resurrection facts

    Why the resurrection stands at the center of Christian faith and history Dr. Shaw also explains how archaeology, early enemy attestation, and transformed lives all point to the same conclusion: the New Testament is historically trustworthy—and Jesus is who He claimed to be.

    📚 Featured Guest: Dr. Benjamin Shaw President, Core Apologetics Author of Trustworthy: 13 Arguments for the Reliability of the New Testament Student of Dr. Gary Habermas (Minimal Facts Argument)
