Atheist convert to Catholicism Leah Libresco & Hemant Mehta - Unbelievable? Jun 23, 2014

Show notes

When Leah Libresco recently became a Catholic her story was featured on CNN. Why? Because up to that point she had been an atheist blogger. Her story was soon being shared on Christian and atheist blogs.

She talks to atheist blogger Hemant Mehta (aka The Friendly Atheist) about why the moral argument helped her in the journey and he quizzes her over why she chose Catholicism. Listener questions are also included.

Jehovahs Witnesses dialogue Pt 1- Unbelievable? Jun 23, 2014

Show notes

In the first of two programmes Justin Brierley talks to Jehovah's Witness Robert King (aka e-watchman) and former JW Tony Brown.

Robert is disfellowshipped but still holds to Jehovah's Witness doctrine. He does not speak in any offical capacity for the Watchtower Society. Tony Brown is now a Christian pastor with a ministry to Jehovah's Witnesses, he describes how he joined and left the organisation.

They discuss the failed end-time prophecies of the organisation, their controversial blood doctrines and the belief in the 144,000 in heaven. Next week they tackle why JWs reject the deity of Christ.

Jehovah's Witnesses dialogue Pt 2: the deity of Christ - Unbelievable? Jun 23, 2014

Show notes

In the second programme examining the beliefs of Jehovah's Witnesses, Robert King and Tony Brown discuss whether Christ claims to be God.

Robert is a disfellowshiped JW but still holds to Watchtower doctrine. Tony is a former JW, now a Christian pastor. They talk about whether JWs rely upon a works-based salvation, return to the 144,000 and discuss whether Jesus is the Archangel Michael and not the son of God, as Robert claims.

Do we live on an old or young earth? Unbelievable? 17 Jun 2012 Jun 23, 2014

Show notes

Young Earth Creationists (YEC) claim the earth and universe is only some 6000 years old according to the Bible and that science that goes against this is flawed.

Old Earth Creationists (OEC) argue that the Bible does not commit us to a 24hr day view of creation days, but that the earth and universe is, as mainstream science predicts, billions of years old.

This debate was recorded in front of a live audience at Gunnersbury Baptist Church. Representing OEC are Hugh Ross & Ken Samples of Reasons To Believe. Reresenting YEC are Andy MacIntosh & Stephen Lloyd.
