I Don't Have Enough FAITH to Be an ATHEIST

The great John Lennox once said, "When brilliant scientists talk nonsense, it's still nonsense." What would make him say such a thing? This week, Frank turns to Chapter 4 of his newly updated book, 'I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist,' to unpack the remarkable science behind the fine-tuning of the universe. In fact, the evidence is so overwhelming that many skeptics resort to wild science-fiction theories like the multiverse in a desperate attempt to explain it away!

Tune in as he answers questions like:

With so much attention on gas prices, Trump, and the War on Iran, is everyone totally missing the plot when it comes to the 2026 election results? In this midweek episode, Frank examines what went wrong for conservative voters and reveals the one surprising statistic you need to know about the current political climate.

You’ll learn:

Where did we come from? Why are we here? And where are we going? Every worldview has to answer at least five essential questions, but which one leads us to the truth? It's been 20+ years since the original release of, 'I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist', and while the arguments haven't changed, there's now even MORE evidence to support them! To celebrate the release of the newly revised and updated edition, Frank starts at the very beginning (literally!) by examining the scientific and philosophical evidence for the origin of the universe.

You'll learn:

A Muslim co-worker says Jesus never claimed to be God. Your Mormon neighbor says, “We believe in Jesus too!” Then, a Jehovah’s Witness opens the New World Translation and starts reading what sounds like scripture. Are you ready to respond? Or are you suddenly hoping somebody changes the subject?

Frank welcomes Dr. Brady Blevins, Senior Apologist at Watchman Fellowship, and 'Conversations with the Faiths' course instructor, for an eye-opening conversation about Christian heresies. What are these groups teaching their followers, and how can Christians help them recognize the deception? Tune in as Frank and Brady...

Did we REALLY find Noah's Ark or are millions of people being misled by internet hype? Have we REALLY found the burial box of Jesus’s brother, James? And what do jihad and progressive Christianity have to do with America's upcoming midterm elections? Dr. Jeremiah J. Johnston, president and founder of Christian Thinkers, joins Frank to tackle some of the biggest controversies currently making headlines in archaeology, politics and the Church. Together, they answer questions like:

Can we REALLY trust the New Testament writers? How do we know they were telling the truth about Jesus' resurrection and not just passing along an invented story? The brand-new updated edition of 'I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist' is officially available TODAY after the first edition sold over half a million copies.

By God’s grace, the book has been successful because it shows people why the Bible is true in a systematic manner, building the case through easy-to-graph evidence, while addressing all major objections each step of the way. This new...

If someone becomes wealthy does that automatically mean that someone else will become poor? It seems that some Americans need a refresher course in basic economics! This week, Frank is joined by Dr. Jay Richards, author of 'Money, Greed, and God', to make the Christian case for capitalism and free enterprise. With socialism gaining popularity among young Americans, Jay challenges some of the biggest misconceptions about wealth, poverty, and economic inequality. Tune in as Frank and Jay tackle questions like:

Why is Ken Ham picking a fight with Frank about the age of the universe? We all know the Word of God is inerrant, but is Ken’s interpretation of the Bible inerrant? Tune in as Frank responds to Ken's recent video that criticizes what Frank teaches about creation and answers questions like:

Have you ever heard a pastor say, "I just want to preach the Gospel," or "Christians shouldn't get involved in politics"? It sounds spiritual, but is staying out of politics really the biblical thing to do?

With the midterm elections approaching, Frank draws from 'The War on Reality', his new book co-written with Phoenix Hayes, to challenge the idea that Christians should steer clear of politics. From the pulpit to the ballot box, he unpacks 10 biblical reasons for political engagement and why the consequences of sitting on the sidelines may be greater than you think...

What's going on at Baylor University? After exposing the administrative roadblocks that led to the cancellation of a recent college tour event, Frank returns to address some anticipated objections and dig even deeper into his concerns about the university. He'll address questions like:

What happens when a university that claims to stand for Christianity makes it nearly impossible to host an event defending the truth of the Christian faith? And could it possibly involve extortion? That's exactly what happened to us earlier this week (for the first time in 20 years of college visits!), and Frank is bringing the receipts!

What started as a frustrating encounter with Baylor's administration has exposed some troubling questions about what's really being taught at this "Christian" university. From administrative roadblocks to unbiblical professors and courses, Frank reveals why there's much more at stake...

Riley Gaines Barker trained her entire life to compete at the highest level of women’s swimming. Then one race changed everything. How did 1/100 of a second in the pool turn a competitive swimmer into a national voice in one of today’s biggest cultural battles?

In this much-anticipated episode, Riley joins Frank to tell the story leading up to that moment and how it transformed her life. From competing against biological male "Lia" Thomas to confronting NCAA officials, lawsuits, protests, and even serious threats of violence, Riley shares how she unexpectedly found herself leading the...

Karl Marx and D.L. Moody were two men with radically different visions for humanity. Both witnessed poverty, injustice, and suffering, but their solutions couldn’t have been more different. So, what can these two 19th-century contemporaries teach us about the battle of worldviews we're facing today?

One of our favorite guests, Dr. Erwin Lutzer, joins Frank to explore that question through his new book, Marx and Moody, co-authored with Dr. Gregg Quiggle. From Marx’s troubled home life and calls for revolution to Moody’s work among the poor and passion for the Gospel, their st...

Does the coming of Jesus mean the Old Testament is null and void? Did He destroy Judaism along with all Jewish holidays? Should Israel be totally wiped off the map, as some "Christians" claim? In this midweek episode, Frank responds to a question from a Jewish man seeking clarity on comments made by his so-called Christian friends. Tune in as he uncovers some fascinating connections between the Old and New Testaments while confronting a few controversial issues and more listener questions along the way. You'll learn:

Do you ever have one of those moments when ordinary life suddenly feels like it’s pointing to something more? You can’t quite explain it, but for a split second, this world doesn’t seem like all there is. Could this be a glimpse of something beyond this world, or even a glimpse of God?

Pastor, author, and theologian, Dr. Gavin Ortlund, joins Frank to explore that possibility and the ideas behind his brand-new book, 'Why Christianity Makes Sense: A Book About Jesus, the Mysteries of the World, and the Longings in Your Heart'. From w...

BLM burned American cities to the ground. One-third of GenZ girls identify as LGBTQ. Four-hundred women in pink rally for a mother who strangled her three children. Charlie Kirk stood in the public square doing the watchman's work in a country with a church on every corner--and was killed doing it. What were the pastors doing?

Producer and cultural commentator, Jeremy Boering, returns to unpack the speech that sparked these questions and goes deeper into where Christians, pastors, and the culture go from here. Tune in as Frank and Jeremy wrestle with questions like:

Christians have plenty of truth to share. But why does “Christian entertainment” sometimes struggle to tell a great story? What if the problem isn’t the message, but how we tell it?

Frank sits down with producer, cultural commentator, and Daily Wire co-founder, Jeremy Boreing, whose latest project puts those ideas to the test. As the writer and director of the highly successful, 'The Pendragon Cycle: Rise of the Merlin', Jeremy has seen a 30-year dream become the #1 fantasy series on Amazon Prime Video. What did it take to get there, and what can its succes...

What makes John Lennox one of the most winsome and influential Christian apologists of our lifetime? Don’t miss this special EXTENDED CUT, which includes even more fascinating stories and insights from his lifetime of boldly defending the Christian faith in lecture halls, debates and the public square. Together, Frank and John go beyond the previous episode to discuss:

From his humble beginnings in Northern Ireland to debating the world's most prominent atheists on the global stage, Dr John C. Lennox has spent a lifetime (more than sixty years!) showing how faith, science, and reason can stand together. In this exclusive interview recorded at St. Ebbe’s Church in Oxford, England, Frank and John discuss his new autobiography, 'My Story: A Spiritual and Intellectual Autobiography', and reflect on the ideas, people and pivotal moments that shaped his remarkable life.

You'll learn:

Today is the day! 'The War on Reality' has officially been released, and Frank and Phoenix are celebrating by turning the spotlight on a question that might ruffle a few feathers: Can Christians fall into the same trap of trying to bend reality to fit what they want to believe?

From health, wealth, and prosperity theology, to manifestation and Christian occultism, they examine popular teachings that sound biblical, but fall apart once you put them back into context. You'll learn:

We’re told men can have babies, math is racist, abortion is healthcare, castrating children is also healthcare, and disagreement somehow qualifies as hate speech. How did we get here, and what do these seemingly unrelated ideas all have in common?

Phoenix Hayes, co-author of 'The War on Reality', joins Frank to unpack one of their favorite chapters from the book (available for immediate download as soon as you pre-order!), and trace the ideas shaping today’s cultural madness back to the man behind the ideology: Karl Marx. Together, they answer questions like:

George Washington is one of the most recognizable names in American history. But before the presidency, the monuments, and the dollar bill, he was a military leader carrying the weight of a revolution that could easily have failed.

This week, Eric Metaxas joins Frank to discuss his new book, 'Revolution: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World', and why understanding Washington means understanding far more than battlefield strategy. Their conversation traces the faith, character, political philosophy, and providential moments that helped shape the American Revolution and the nation that followed...

For centuries, skeptics have argued that parts of the Bible are legend, exaggeration, or history written long after the fact. But what happens when archaeologists start finding the names, places, civilizations, and events recorded in Scripture--do those same skeptics ever change their minds?

This week, author, filmmaker, and scholar, Dinesh D'Souza, joins Frank to reveal what sparked his fascination with biblical archaeology and inspired his new book, 'The Stones Cry Out'. Together, they trace the archaeological evidence through the biblical timeline, from the world of Abraham and ancient Israel to King David, the New Testament...

How do you know you’re not being deceived? In today’s upside-down “follow your feelings” world it can be hard to distinguish the truth from a lie. So what’s the best way to prevent you and your loved ones from stumbling into dangerous false teachings?

Joining Frank from CIA 2026 in Charlotte, NC is the women’s all-star team of Christian apologetics–Hillary Morgan Ferrer (Mama Bear Apologetics), Alisa Childers, and Natasha Crain. Together they discuss some of the most popular false beliefs from culture that have seeped into the Church and why it seems that personality an...

AI can write your emails, summarize a book, help with homework, and apparently become your girlfriend. Should Christians be excited, concerned, or maybe a little bit of both? Frank sits down with 17-year-old tech prodigy Nathan, his mom Natasha Crain, and Phoenix Hayes to discuss what AI can do, what it can't do, and the worldview assumptions hiding beneath the technology that has taken over our lives seemingly overnight.

Together, they tackle questions like:

What happens to a culture when “my choice” becomes its highest moral authority? This week, Phoenix Hayes, co-author of 'The War on Reality', joins Frank to unpack a recent change to Massachusetts’ abortion law and the bigger cultural shift that made it possible. From linguistic theft and Church silence to slavery, racial disparities, and the biblical case for life, Frank and Phoenix aren’t shying away from the BIG questions at the center of the abortion debate like:

John 8:36 states, "If the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed." So why can the same old sins, fears, habits, and wounds keep dragging us down? Frank joins fellow apologists Allen Parr and Bobby Conway from CIA 2026 in Charlotte, NC for a candid conversation about the battles Christians don’t always like to admit they’re fighting. Drawing from their own struggles and Allen’s new book, Breaking Through, they unpack what sanctification looks like when getting saved happens in a moment, but becoming more like Christ takes a lifetime. They'll tackle questions like:

Does the Bible teach that Christians are to listen for God’s voice to guide their decisions? For many people, such an intimacy is central to a personal relationship with God, and the core of a true Christian life. But is it biblical? Greg Koukl, Founder and President of Stand to Reason, joins the program to discuss the popular idea of "hearing from God" and what to do if you feel stuck in the mud because God's hints and whispers are not as loud as you expected. Using Scripture as his guide, Greg explains:

Non-birthing persons, pregnant men, using racism to fight racism, and Marxist ideologies that keep everyone in a perpetual state of outrage and victimhood… Ever feel like you’re in the minority when it comes to keeping your feet planted in reality? You’re not! This week, Frank welcomes his co-author, Phoenix Hayes, to discuss their new book (now available for pre-order!), 'The War on Reality', which they wrote to help Christians identify the ideologies and tactics used to try and rewrite reality but that ultimately lead to despair and brokenness. You'll learn:

Dr. John Ferrer and Pastor Jason Jimenez return for Part 2 of their "4 I's" series to tackle one of today's most controversial issues by asking one simple question: What does the Bible REALLY say about open borders and immigration? You'll learn:

Why are so many Christians divided over Israel? And what does the Bible actually say about God's promises to the Jewish people? This week, Frank welcomes Dr. John Ferrer and Pastor Jason Jimenez, recorded on site from CrossExamined Instructor Academy 2026 in Charlotte, NC, to kick off a two-part conversation on what they call the 4 I's that Christians are struggling to think biblically about: Israel, Immigration, Islam, and Identity. In Part 1, they tackle the first two and answer questions like:

Is the history of America so dark and disturbed that we need to start over? Where could we go to learn the details of what REALLY happened? Tim Barton, President of WallBuilders, returns to the program to examine the original documents behind some of America's biggest historical debates--straight from his personal collection of over 100,000 items! From slavery and the Treaty of Tripoli to Native American land claims and the biblical worldview of the Founders, Frank and Tim compare today's most popular claims with the evidence that often gets left out.

Here's what you'll learn:

What if some of the biggest claims you've heard about American history aren't true? For decades, Americans have been told that Christopher Columbus launched a campaign of genocide, the Founding Fathers were racist deists, and the United States was uniquely evil from the very beginning. While people of every nation have undeniably done evil (that’s why we all need a Savior), are those claims about America based on the historical record or Marxist propaganda?

If you think you already know America's history, think again! This week, Frank interviews historian and President of WallBuilders, Tim Ba...

Frank welcomes back father-son duo, Cliffe and Stuart Knechtle, to unpack the objections they hear most often from college students who remain unconvinced by Christianity, share how they respond to skeptics in the heat of the moment, and help Christians prepare for similar conversations. Tune in as they answer questions like:

Are you looking for answers about faith that will satisfy both your heart and your mind? As the host and founder of Give Me an Answer, Cliffe Knechtle has four decades of experience answering questions about God's existence, the presence of evil in the world, and the reliability of the Bible. Now in their new book, 'Demolishing Doubt', Cliffe and his son, Stuart, tackle the pain behind doubts, sharing true stories from their conversations on college campuses and their interactions with millions online.

Tune in as Frank, Stuart, and Cliffe answer key questions like:

Is it possible to reason with someone who believes that corroborated evidence is part of the deception of conspiracy theories? In this episode, Frank responds to a question from a concerned husband whose marriage is under serious strain due to conspiracy theories surrounding the murder of Charlie Kirk. While discussing the Tyler Robinson preliminary hearing last week, and the biblical principles surrounding gossip, deception, and false accusations, Frank tackles questions like:

Did Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John really write the Gospels? Or were these books actually anonymous from the beginning? And if they were, what would that mean for Christianity?

This week, Frank sits down with New Testament scholar Dr. Mike Licona to unpack his latest debate with Bart Ehrman, one of the world's best-known New Testament skeptics. What did Mike actually agree with Bart on? And where does he think Bart leans too heavily on speculation instead of the historical evidence? Together, they unpack Bart's biggest objections and tackle questions like:

When did "just asking questions" become enough to convict someone in the court of public opinion?

This week, Frank takes a closer look at several claims made by Candace Owens surrounding Charlie Kirk's murder and asks a simple question: What does the evidence actually show? Frank responds to listener emails about the alleged discrepancies in his account of the September 10th events and addresses the so-called CPR contradiction. He explains why possibilities, coincidences, and speculation should never be confused with proof. This episode will tackle questions like:

Earlier this week, historian Bill Federer joined Frank to explore the biblical ideas that shaped the foundation of America. In this follow-up conversation, Bill returns to bring the Declaration of Independence's most influential figures to life through their faith, their sacrifices, and the extraordinary stories of divine providence that many believed shaped America's fight for independence. Join Frank and Bill as they answer questions like:

How did America REALLY begin? As the United States approaches its 250th anniversary, claims that the Founding Fathers were mostly deists and that Christianity had little influence on America's founding have become increasingly common. But does the historical record support those claims, or are misinformed pundits trying to rewrite our past while jeopardizing our future?

Joining Frank to set the record straight is the one-and-only, Bill Federer, author and founder of American Minute. Together, Frank and Bill unpack the biblical ideas that shaped America's founding, explore what made the American experiment so revolutionary, and examine...
