You'll find a mixed bag of Jesus, theology, Christian apologetics, and cultural topics from a Christian perspective here. I'm an ex-New Thoughter (with a little Ex New Ager sprinkled in) and a lot of my videos focus on topics related to this as well. My hope is to help Christians thoughtfully know what they believe and why they believe it. 

Most people read the Bible. TRACE teaches you to investigate it. Every week host Darin Starks walks through a passage of Scripture using the TRACE Method — a five-step Bible investigation framework: Target, Reveal, Anchor, Connect, Express. The original language. The historical context. What it reveals about who God actually is. And how to apply it to your real life right now. This isn't another show where someone tells you what the Bible means. It's where you learn how to find it for yourself. New episodes weekly. Download the TRACE app to investigate alongside every episode.
