  • Summary

  • The name, Theologetics, is a combination of the words "theology" & "apologetics", and when we combine these two things, we get a love for the study of the nature of God and a conviction to defend His word. Throughout this podcast, we will discuss the Christian experience, learn about God, Jesus, the Bible, how to defend the Christian faith, and how to crucify our hearts, minds, and desires to conform into the image of Christ.

    Galatians 2:20 "I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me." (CSB)

    1 Peter 3:15 "but in your hearts regard Christ the Lord as holy, ready at any time to give a defense to anyone who asks you for the reason for the hope that is in you." (CSB)

  • Was Deborah the Judge because the men were cowards? (Judges 4-5)

    Was Deborah the Judge because the men were cowards? (Judges 4-5)
    Nov 4 2024

    There is a narrative in certain church circles that teaches that Deborah was only the judge because the men weren't stepping up. Some will go as far as to say that Deborah (a woman) being the judge over Israel was God placing judgement on Israel because the men refused to lead. They will even use Isaiah 3:12 out of context to support their view. Also adding that some would suggest that Barak was actually supposed to be the judge and not Deborah but Barak was a coward for not stepping up and being the judge. Is this what the scriptures are communicating? Do we see anywhere in scripture that God picks people based on these conditions"? The answer is a flat out NO. I will be discussing my reasons from the scriptures (contextually and culturally) for why these interpretations of Deborah the Judge are ridiculous. For some Christians, women leading men should never happen. According to churches who believe that the Bible teaches gender hierarchy has a view that men are the only ones who are to be in charge. But according to scripture God never had an issue with calling women to lead people (men and women).

  • Should Women Be In Ministry?

    Should Women Be In Ministry?
    Feb 5 2024

    This topic is one of the most controversial in many church circles. There are whole denominations that say that women shouldn’t be in any ministry role. Some say that women can be in ministry but can’t be deacons, preachers, or pastors. These arguments are based on a literal interpretation of 1 Timothy 2:12; 1 Timothy 3:1-13; 1 Corinthians 14:34. The problem is these verses they use are taken out of its original cultural and historical context. But when we take the time to put these verses back into its original context we don’t get an anti-women in ministry. Apostle Paul actually commissioned women to do ministry (Priscilla, Junia, Phoebe, Lydia, etc. Paul who is an Apostle followed Christ’ example. Jesus is the only Rabbi in Jewish history that allowed women to be His disciples and commissioned them to spread the Gospel of the risen Messiah (Matt 28:10; John 20:17-18). I hope you enjoy this episode.

  • Jesus Understood The Assignment

    Jesus Understood The Assignment
    Oct 10 2023

    This is the last episode of the season. We will end it with discussing the commands of Jesus; to be salt & light and to make disciples of all nations. When we study Jesus' words we see that these were not new commands, but were old commands from God through the prophet Isaiah in the Old Testament.
