The Apologetics PodcastYou Might Be a Christian Nationalist If..., with Thomas KiddWhat is a "Christian nationalist" and how do you know if you might be one?
That's the question Garrick Bailey and Timothy Paul Jones ask distinguished American historian Thomas Kidd. Along the way, Garrick and Timothy discover that the answer isn't nearly as scary as some people seem to think. Garrick does, however, suggest a rather scary image that involves Jesus, a bald eagle, and an American flag.* In the end, Dr. Kidd refuses to be distracted by Garrick’s bizarre suggestion and instead takes your intrepid cohosts to a place where few people seem to go: a...2024-10-2943 minThe Apologetics PodcastHow Multiethnic Churches Provide Proof of God's Truth, with Jamaal E. WilliamsHeaven is multiethnic. Are you ready for that?
The Bible tells us that the congregation gathered around God's heavenly throne will be “a vast multitude from every nation, tribe, people, and language,” all singing the praises of the Lamb. God's intention has always been to delight for all eternity in a redeemed community of ethnic diversity.
But this diverse community shouldn't have to wait until eternity to begin. It can start here and now.
Dr. Jamaal Williams, pastor of Sojourn Church Midtown in Louisville, has coauthored a book entitled In Church as It Is in He...2024-10-2246 min
The Apologetics PodcastStyx, “Mr. Roboto,” and the Metanarrative of GodKilroy Was Here!
During World War 2, “Kilroy Was Here” described a type of graffiti that American soldiers chalked on walls wherever they went.
In 1983, the phrase gained a completely different meaning.
That’s when the band Styx developed a rock opera and concept album—complete with a ten-minute dystopian science-fiction film—in response to accusations that Styx had encoded Satanic messages in their song “Snowblind.” These accusations led to legislation in the Arkansas State Senate requiring rock records that included backward messages to be labeled with warnings. Styx keyboardist and vocalist Dennis DeYoung envisioned a f...2024-10-1543 minThe Apologetics PodcastEvery Christian Is an Apologist Now (Part 2), with Timothy Paul Jones and Garrick BaileyThis is the second half of an exciting two-part episode of The Apologetics Podcast. Garrick and Timothy are still adventuring through time with a second-century apologist named Aristides, exploring three key points in his apologetic that addressed those that were skeptical of Christianity in his day. Aristides understood that every Christian is an apologist—and that's the truth that your intrepid cohosts are doing their best to recover.
However, the dynamic duo doesn't stay put for long as they return to their DeLorean and launch into a perilous exploration of modern civic liturgies. Soon, Garrick and Timothy fi...2024-10-0243 minThe Apologetics PodcastEvery Christian Is an Apologist Now (Part 1), with Timothy Paul Jones and Garrick BaileyIn this thrilling two-part episode of The Apologetics Podcast, Garrick and Timothy go back to the future.
Or, perhaps more precisely, they go back to the second century for the sake of the future.
In the book The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self, theologian Carl Trueman points out that the church's challenges of the second century A.D. provide one possible precedent for the struggles that Christians are facing in the present era. With that in mind, Garrick and Timothy travel back in time to see what contemporary Christians might learn from a...2023-09-1956 minThe Apologetics PodcastHow Bible Literacy Equips the Church to Defend the Faith, with Jen WilkinIn this episode, your intrepid cohosts learn why they need to get literate.
"Bible literate," to be exact.
According to author and Bible teacher Jen Wilkin, Bible literacy is a vital tool when it comes to apologetics—and "Bible literacy" is not the same thing as "biblical literacy."
Biblical literacy means knowing about the Bible. Bible literacy requires knowing the Bible itself, and Bible literacy is part of what every Christian needs to be able to defend the faith.
In the process of getting themselves some Bible literateness, Garrick Bailey and Tim...2023-09-1254 minThe Apologetics PodcastHow to Be an Apologist without Being a Jerk, with Timothy Paul Jones and Garrick BaileyYou don’t have to be a jerk to be an apologist.
In fact, if you’re being a jerk, you’re not doing apologetics in a biblical way, because biblical apologetics calls Christians to defend the faith in “meekness and fear” (1 Peter 3:15b).
So how can we do apologetics without being a jerk? One of the best ways not to be a jerk is to listen to 1980s rock, which is why your intrepid cohosts have included clips from Bon Jovi and Sammy Hagar-era Van Halen in this episode. (Fun fact: Jon Bon Jovi’s last name is...2023-03-1425 minThe Apologetics PodcastResurrection-Centered Apologetics, with Timothy Paul Jones and Garrick BaileyThis episode begins with the infancy of Jesus and ends with his resurrection.
Garrick brings up the infancy of Jesus in the Raiders of Church History segment in the most awkward of ways. This episode is the first—and hopefully the last—time that "lactation" has ever been mentioned on The Apologetics Podcast. Timothy brings the battle to a premature end by hitting Garrick in the head with the Lindisfarne Gospels.
Your intrepid cohosts quickly forgive one another, however, and move on to make three key points about what apologetics is. This episode is the firs...2023-03-0746 min
The Apologetics PodcastHuey Lewis and the News: The Holy Trinity and “The Power of Love”Garrick Bailey and Timothy Paul Jones have already devoted one entire episode of this podcast to love. That was when they discussed Foreigner’s 1984 hit “I Want to Know What Love Is.”
But Garrick and Timothy are far too full of love to fit all of their feelings about love into a single episode.
That’s why they’re joining forces with Huey Lewis to talk about love again in this special Three Chords and the Truth episode of The Apologetics Podcast.
Along the way, the dynamic duo discusses the history of Huey Lewis and th...2022-08-0958 minThe Apologetics PodcastAbortion, Apologetics, and the End of Roe v. Wade, with Garrick Bailey and Timothy Paul Jones“The Constitution does not confer a right to abortion; Roe and Casey are overruled; and the authority to regulate abortion is returned to the people and their elected representatives.”
With those words, the United States Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, the 1973 decision that declared a federal constitutional right to abortion.
So what now?
How should churches respond to this ruling? How can this decision be turned into an opportunity for apologetics? And what's been the historical perspective of Christians when it comes to abortion?
That's what Garrick Bailey and Timothy Paul...2022-07-1956 minThe Apologetics PodcastWhat If Our Bibles Don’t Have the Right Words? with Michael KrugerIf you like talking about ancient objects, this episode is for you. And, by "ancient objects," we don't mean things like typewriters, printed telephone books, and those AOL compact discs that used to show up in your mailbox every week.
We're talking about items that are really old.
Like, older than Keith Richards and Willie Nelson.
And so, if ancient artifacts are your thing, join Garrick Bailey and Timothy Paul Jones on this exhilarating episode in which the dynamic duo discusses ancient texts, ancient abbreviations, ancient chains … and an ancient pelvis.

Of course, almost every episode of this podcast is kind of kind, mostly because Garrick is just that kind of person. But this episode is the kind of episode that’s particularly kind, because we’re joined by Dr. Keith Plummer, who is widely renowned for his special kind of kindness.
Even the battle between your intrepid cohosts in Indiana, Jones, and the Raiders of Church History turns out to be cuddly and kind. Timothy puts a Pomeranian puppy named “Belferlein” into battle against Garrick's weapon o...2022-07-0555 minThe Apologetics PodcastDid the Council of Nicaea Choose the Books of the Bible? with Garrick Bailey and Timothy Paul JonesThe books of the Bible were selected in the year 325 at the Council of Nicaea, right?
That's what a lot of Christians seem to think.
But is this story true?
If it isn't true, how did the tale of a council that created the canon begin in the first place?
Those are the questions that your intrepid cohosts Garrick Bailey and Timothy Paul Jones explore in this episode.
As with almost every explanation that Garrick and Timothy give, the answer turns out to be far weirder than you ever i...2022-06-0858 minThe Apologetics PodcastHow the Life of the Church Defends the Truth of the Faith, with Garrick Bailey and Timothy Paul JonesIt's the end of apologetics!
Well, at least that's what a recent book by Myron Bradley Penner claims, which is big if true.
If apologetics has reached its end, after all, your intrepid cohosts will soon need to bid adieu, since there's no need for an apologetics podcast if the extinction of apologetics is imminent.
But, alas, seconds before Timothy turns to Garrick with mist in his eyes and whispers, "The Quest is achieved, and now all is over. I am glad you are here with me. Here at the end of all t...2022-05-1758 min

The first part of this two-part series focuses on how being raised as a Christian Scientist impacted lead vocalist James Hetfield’s life and Metallica’s lyrics. This provides the dynamic duo with an opportunity to discuss the history and theology of Mary Baker Eddy and the Church of Christ, Scientist. If you’re interested in doing apologetics with Christian Scientists, this episode provides you with everything you...2022-05-1754 minThe Apologetics PodcastMetallica (Part 2): The Problem of Evil, the Power of Shame, and ”The God That Failed”
Some topics are too amazing to fit into a single episode.
Metallica is one of them.
In this second part of this dive into the music of Metallica, Garrick and Timothy look at the theology behind the 1991 song "The God That Failed." Along the way, your intrepid cohosts include an audio clip from the most shocking video in which Metallica's lead vocalist James Hetfield has ever appeared. Believe it or not, it all begins with a Nobel Prize-winning scientific research project that involved cardboard butterflies.
