    1.7 Defending the Historical Jesus

    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit jrmiller777.substack.comIn this episode of The Apologetics Dialogues, we examine the historical foundations for the identity of Jesus. Beginning with the methods scholars use to study the historical Jesus, we explore how presuppositions—especially naturalism—shape modern conclusions. We then consider what historians broadly agree about Jesus’ life and why the virgin birth and resurrection stand at the center of Christian claims. Finally, we examine the historical evidence for the resurrection and why it remains the decisive event that vindicates Jesus’ identity and grounds the Christian faith in real history.

    1.5 Defending the Bible with Truth and Testimony

    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit jrmiller777.substack.comIn this episode of The Apologetics Dialogues, we explore one of the most important questions for the Christian faith: Can we trust the Bible? We’ll look at the cumulative case for Scripture’s authority—from Jesus’s own view of the Old Testament to the Bible’s remarkable unity, historical credibility, careful transmission, and the recognition of the New Testament canon. But this conversation goes beyond simply defending the Bible. If Scripture truly is God’s Word, then it’s not only something to argue for—it’s something to trust, read, and live.

    1.2 Strategies from Evidence to Incarnation

    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit jrmiller777.substack.comIn this episode of The Apologetics Dialogues, our AI hosts explore the major strategies Christians have used to defend the faith. From classical and evidential approaches that emphasize arguments and evidence, to presuppositional methods that begin with biblical revelation, to narrative and cultural approaches that engage the stories shaping our world. But we’ll also introduce a fourth approach—incarnational apologetics—which reminds us that the defense of the gospel is not only argued with words, but demonstrated through a life that embodies the truth of Christ.

    1.1 In Defense of Hope

    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit jrmiller777.substack.comIn the opening episode of The Apologetics Dialogues, our AI hosts explore the foundational question: What is Christian apologetics? Moving beyond the common misunderstanding that apologetics is merely about arguing or debating, this episode introduces the deeper vision of apologetics as an embodied defense of the Christian worldview. Listeners will discover how apologetics functions not only in responding to objections but also in strengthening faith, supporting evangelism, and equipping Christians to engage a skeptical world with clarity, conviction, and Christlikeness.

    1.0 Welcome to the Apologetics Dialogues

    What does it really mean to defend your faith? Not from a stage. Not in a debate hall. But in the hallways of your school, around your dinner table, in the middle of hard conversations with people you love. I call it incarnational apologetics—a vision of Christian witness that goes beyond clever arguments to ask a deeper question: what if the most compelling defense of the gospel is a life actually shaped by it? My name is Joe Miller and that question has driven me for decades—and it’s the reason this series exists. The Apologetics Dialogues consists of eight episodes built for churches, small groups, campus ministries, students, and anyone who wants to think more clearly and live more courageously for Christ. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit jrmiller777.substack.com/subscribe
