TrueU Filming—Last Day

Our last day of filming brought us to the New Testament. It too, is under great attack. One of the most notable came in the form of a best-selling book and later a movie: “The DaVinci Code”, where much of the teaching and the historicity of the New Testament is turned on its head or [...]

TrueU Filming—Thursday

“Now, for you students who have been raised on the Bible, I hate to burst your bubble. For a divinely inspired document, it certainly gets a lot, if not all, of its historical facts wrong. David, for example, is portrayed to be a mighty king. The reality is, according to Finkelstein and other prominent archeologists, [...]

TrueU Filming—Wednesday

One of the major attacks that a student will be confronted with in the university classroom is the argument that no rational person can still hold to the notion that God exists.
The first 10 lessons were dedicated to build the case that an honest evaluation of the evidence from cosmology, physics and biology should [...]

TrueU Filming—Monday & Tuesday

“…men…suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are [...]

TrueU Filming—Saturday

Does God really exist?
If there is a God, why doesn’t He show Himself?
Hasn’t science proven that everything can be explained by natural processes? Doesn’t this make God…unnecessary? Doesn’t this prove that God and the Bible are just fairy tales written by man?
Good questions.
Are there credible answers? Or, are we left with simply running to [...]

TrueU—Filming Begins

Twenty-six students took their seats in the old Truth Project classroom, restyled now for a new purpose. A great crew and a host of other folks that had been working for months brought a slew of complex, individual pieces together for this first day of filming.
Dr. Stephen Meyer then walked to the front of [...]

Great Responses!

Wow! Thank you for your great responses! They were terrific!
Here are the “buckets” they seem to fall into, beginning with the largest number of responses (you will notice some overlap):
1. Exclusivity & pluralism—What makes Jesus right and Buddha or Allah wrong? Why Christianity versus all the others? Why is Jesus the only way? Isn’t this [...]

A Call for Difficult Questions

In May, we will resurrect the Truth Project classroom and film a new series of half-hour “classes” that will be geared toward preparing a High-School student for the battle they will be facing on the university campus. That battle will come from three major fronts:
–the classroom, where a majority of professors do not hold [...]

Where Do All the Wheels Go?—and Other Grand Conspiracies

Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal among you, which comes upon you for your testing, as though some strange thing were happening to you…1 Peter 4:12
Some time ago I wrote about the mystery associated with socks that disappear into the inner sanctum of washing machines.
I think there is a similar mystery [...]

Removing Obstacles in Your Life

“Up on the rooftop, click, click, click…”
What is that clicking up on my rooftop?
It is my wife’s hair dryer.
Why is my wife’s hair dryer up on the roof?
Because I am up on the roof.
Why am I up on the rooftop with my wife’s hair dryer?
Good question.
I asked myself that at least 12 times today…one [...]
