The trial, suffering and death of Jesus is simply the most important event in all of humankind. In this first message of a semi-regular series, Lenny explores the six different trials of Jesus of Nazareth and how it is the evil in the hearts of man that allowed them to condemn the only one who walked the earth without sin.

Facing the Facts of the Resurrection
Facing the Facts of the Resurrection Have you ever wondered how the news of the resurrection would play out if they had social media in the first century? In this engaging Easter message, Lenny walks through a Facebook exchange between the Apostle Paul, himself, and various characters you typically run across on social platforms to show why the resurrection really does stand up as historical fact and how the skeptics' own arguments point to the validity of the resurrection accounts.

Is this a contradiction? In this podcast, Lenny explores the apparent tensions between our free will and God's foreordination and shows how both can not only be true, but how a proper understanding helps us see theological questions in a different light.

Of Locusts and Love: Why A Loving God Would Bring Calamity
Of Locusts and Love: Why A Loving God Would Bring Calamity The Bible is frequently caricatured as displaying contradictory concepts of God.

The War Against the Family Our culture is obviously fragmenting today.

What does it mean that the new sexual politics, these new identity concepts which are being introduced to our children and to our nation are starting to pull apart the very building block of society that is the family?

Divine Love as the Basis for Morality - Interview with Adam Johnson
Divine Love as the Basis for Morality - Interview with Adam Johnson C.S. Lewis famously wrote how it was the argument from morality that set him on a path of abandoning atheism and believing in God. The fact that moral values and duties really exist is difficult to square with an atheistic understanding of the world. If there are at least some moral precepts that stand above all humanity, where do they come from and how can we explain why we are beholden to them?

Reviving the Sacred in a Secular World
Reviving the Sacred in a Secular World Throughout history, humans have seen themselves as part of a larger world, one where God or gods and the supernatural were fundamental.

Is it possible to re-sensitize modern society to the sacred? Listen as Lenny joins the Apologetics.com radio panel to discuss how we have become callous to the things of God.
