Episode Synopsis


In this episode, Dr. Noller engages the wisdom of a speaker with a wide-ranging expertise in Reformed theology, Dr. Gray Sutanto. We discuss the development of apologetics throughout church history and the influence of seminal Reformed theologians such as Herman Bavinck, Cornelius Van Til, and Alvin Plantinga on cultural apologetics. We dive into common yet weighty objections to Christianity such as: does evolution explain away the existence of good and evil? Why doesn't God save everyone, and does He predestine people for Hell? Do atheists have a burden of proof for denying the existence of a god? And how can a good and powerful God permit the existence of evil? We close with Bavinck's prediction of the rise of Aryan nationalism from the decline of Christian faith in Europe.
