How do we share Christ in a culture that does not believe in absolute truth? Many Christians are afraid to share their faith in a culture that is growing more and more hostile to biblical teaching? Pat and co-host Keith Boychuck discuss the significant changes in the culture and give principles on how we can effectively share our faith in the post-Christian culture of today.

A New study by Probe Ministries reveals that over 70% of the Evangelical church does not have a biblical worldview. Instead of the church being salt and light in the culture, the culture is transforming the church. Most churches today are filled with congregants who have embraced false teachings and have accepted sinful living as normal. How can Christians and Christ’s church turn this tide? Join Pat and Probe Ministries President Kerby Anderson as they discuss what Christians must do if we hope to successfully renew the church and engage our culture for Christ.

A new survey reveals that the number of young adults identifying as Evangelical Christians is quickly declining in America while the number of young adults who identify as Religious “nones,” those who identify as atheist, agnostic or unaffiliated with any religion has tripled in the last ten years. America and the church is changing quickly and heading in the wrong direction. What can we do to change this trend? Join Pat and Probe Ministries President Kerby Anderson as they discuss these disturbing trends and how we can turn the tide in this episode of Evidence and Answers.

America is changing quickly. A new survey by Probe Ministries shows that Christianity is in rapid decline and the number of those identifying as “Nones,” those who identify as atheist, agnostic or no religious affiliation is growing rapidly in the last 10 years. What can we expect in the near future and how can the church respond to this challenge? Join Pat and Probe Ministries President Kerby Anderson as they discuss results from a new survey showing Generation Z may be the generation that ends the Christian Influence in America.

Why does beauty move us so deeply? From stunning sunsets to the elegance of a symphony, beauty seems to point beyond itself to something greater. In God of Wonders: How Beauty Argues for a God, we explore how the presence of beauty—unnecessary for survival yet universally meaningful—suggests the existence of a divine Creator. Could our awe and longing for beauty be signs that we were made for something beyond this world? Tune in as we unpack this fascinating argument and consider what beauty reveals about God.
