Defending the Faith, Memorizing the Word & Life Verses That Inspire - February 24, 2026

On this episode of The Steve Marston Show, Steve tackles one of the most common atheist arguments: “You reject 29,999 gods — I just reject one more.” What’s the real response? Steve explores the evidence for the God of the Bible, why knowing the why behind your faith matters, and how to engage skeptics with wisdom and grace. Plus, Pastor Joe Manning from Bethel Baptist Church joins the show to discuss why “following your heart” can lead you astray, the power of Scripture memorization, and practical ways to hide God’s Word in your heart. You’ll also hear powerful Life Verses from listeners, answers to your email questions (including Christian music recommendations and how to talk to someone who doesn’t want to talk about Jesus), and a hilarious comedy clip to close it all out. Faith, apologetics, encouragement, and dad jokes — it’s the most unique show you’ll hear today.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
