Episode notes
Build A Historical Defense Before Applying It
- Examine both biblical and historical evidence to defend belief in the resurrection.
- Fluhrer sets the series goal: prove the resurrection as a historical fact and then apply its implications to daily life.
Scientism Explains Modern Doubt
- Scientism elevates natural science as the only route to truth and reduces religion to irrelevance.
- Gabe Fluhrer ties its rise since ~1850 to tech advances and a decline in confidence in scripture and church authority.
Spiritual But Not Religious Still Seeks Meaning
- Replacing religion with vague spirituality leaves people still seeking meaning beyond materialism.
- Fluhrer notes the common phrase "I'm spiritual, not religious" and links it to a search for transcendence outside the Bible.
