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 what Gavin calls the “ache”, to meaning, divine hiddenness, and the historical case for Jesus, this conversation makes the case for engaging both the mind and the heart. Tune in as Frank and Gavin tackle questions like: -- What is the "ache” that Gavin describes in his book and what can it tell us about God? -- Why do we often seem to distract ourselves from life’s deeper questions? -- What do some atheists say is the meaning of life and why do their explanations fall short? -- Why should Christian apologists appeal to both the heart and the mind? -- What makes the Resurrection such a powerful source of hope? -- Did Jesus REALLY claim to be God? -- What are Gavin's 3 best arguments for the historicity of Jesus? -- If God wants us to know Him, why does He sometimes seem hidden? -- Would more miracles actually lead more people to believe in Christianity? -- Why might God allow us to live without absolute certainty of His existence? If you've ever felt a longing deep in your heart for something you cannot name, this is your chance to explore it.

If God doesn’t exist, do human rights actually exist? In this powerful 17-minute interview, Dr. Frank Turek breaks down why our Declaration of Independence hinges on a Creator, why objective moral rights require a Right-Giver, and how the Christian worldview provides the essential foundation for human civilization and freedom. From analyzing the 3 core arguments for God's existence (Cosmological, Fine-Tuning, and Moral Law) to sharing Dennis Prager’s famous "2 AM Alley Test," Frank exposes the critical flaw in modern public education and makes a compelling case for why every student needs to evaluate the claims of Jesus Christ. 📌 CHAPTERS: 0:00 - Rights Come from God, Not Government 1:45 - What Happens When Schools Assume God Doesn't Exist? 3:20 - Aristotle vs. Real Christian Conviction 5:10 - 3 Quick Arguments for the Existence of God 7:05 - The Parental Responsibility in Education 8:45 - The Purpose of Life: Knowing God & Making Him Known 11:30 - The 2 AM Alley Test: How Christianity Civilizes Society 14:15 - John Adams, the Constitution, and America’s Future 🙏 SPECIAL CREDITS & ACKNOWLEDGMENTS: Special thanks to School Ministries for hosting and producing this interview.

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: -- What inspired Jeremy to challenge 600+ pastors during a recent TPUSA Faith event? -- What is a fundamental mistake of the seeker-sensitive movement in the American Church? -- Why has the American Church become increasingly apolitical over the past 50+ years? -- How should Christians weigh a political leader’s character against the policies they support? -- What does Jeremy think about President Donald Trump? -- Why are we seeing a rise of interest (and even advocacy) for socialism? -- What 3 major areas should pastors focus on to become more engaged in cultural issues? -- What are the feminine sins that few pastors will call out? -- Why is it sometimes easier to help a stranger than someone you know personally? -- What happens when toxic empathy for the accused begins to overshadow justice for the victim? Later in the show, the conversation takes a few unexpected turns as Jeremy weighs in on the Lindsay Clancy case, his previous experience working with Candace Owens at the Daily Wire, and his thoughts on whether or not Pendragon fans will see a Season 2.
