A Compellingly Rational Case for Christianity, with Douglas Groothuis

from Encountering Truth · host Bill Westers

In this episode, my guest Dr. Douglas Groothuis takes us on a deep dive into the world of Christian apologetics. Doug is a longtime professor of philosophy and apologetics and has written extensively about both. Together, we explore the compellingly rational case for Christianity, examining several key arguments for the existence of God, including the cosmological argument and even the philosophically complex ontological argument. We discuss the intellectually robust nature of these arguments and how they hold up to some of the common objections. Doug also helps us understand the definition and importance of apologetics and how it relates to the Christian worldview.===============Resources:===============Dr. Douglas Groothuis: Website: www.douglasgroothuis.com Podcast: Truth TribeBooks: Christian Apologetics: A Comprehensive Case for Biblical Faith by Douglas Groothuis Fire in the Streets: How You Can Confidently Respond to Incendiary Cultural Topics by Douglas Groothuis The God Who Is There by Francis Schaeffer Return of the God Hypothesis: Three Scientific Discoveries that Reveal the Mind Behind the Universe by Stephen C.
