In our final podcast episode of 2024, Dr. Jay Richards returns to discuss three essential topics that often cause confusion and dissent among both Christians and non-Christians in America today: the history and purpose of government, macroevolutionary theory vs. intelligent design, and the root cause of chronic disease. Together, Frank and Jay address questions like:
What is the biblical purpose of government?
Where do our rights come from?
How should we define American exceptionalism?
Was America founded on Christianity or something else?
What did Thomas Jefferson mean by “separation of church and state” and how has the term been misused and misunderstood?
What is macroevolutionary theory and why does it fail to explain the origin of life and new life forms?
How should Christians respond to the “God of the gaps” objection?
Is Darwinism consistent with what we can observe in biology?
Why is America sicker than ever despite our ultra-advanced health care system and will RFK Jr. solve the problem?
From politics to science to health, Frank and Jay will cover a lot of essential truths in this year-end episode of ‘I Don’t Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist’ that will still be relevant in the decades to come! If you want to learn more about any of these topics, be sure to check out our list of recommended resources below. Let’s continue standing for truth, defending the faith, and boldly living out the biblical worldview in every area of life in 2025!
