S01E21 The Reliability of the Gospels

from The Mighty Philbert Podcast · host Phil Barksdale

Send us Fan MailJ. Warner Wallace, Lee Strobel, and Josh McDowell all claim they’ve got the “case” for the Bible locked down. Wallace waves around Acts like a detective’s notebook, Strobel plays cheerleader with leading questions, and McDowell buries us under a so-called “tsunami of evidence.”But when you dig deeper, what you actually find is silence treated like proof, manuscript quantity hype sold as truth, circular eyewitness claims, and emotional pivots whenever the facts run dry.In this episode of The Mighty Philbert, I take you on a sarcastic field trip through the apologetics circus: from the Manuscript Warehouse, to the Scribe Olympics, to the Martyr Parade.
