I appreciate that he gives respect to the opposing side and even evaluates why a person may come to that conclusion in a thoughtful way, instead of using disrespectful generalizations that I have heRd many Christian speakers use.

  • Easy listen for anyone

    You don’t need to be a theologian or well-versed in “big” words. For anyone who is interested in learning more about the evidence that continuously supports the likelihood that the Bible is truth versus mythology or “blind” faith, then this is the podcast to listen to. I’ve loved Abdu’s teachings from the beginning.

  • I have been waiting for this

    I have been waiting for you to come back out and have another podcast. I would listen to your podcast every morning while driving to work. I’m not good with apologetics and and through you Jesus taught me so much that I was not aware of. Thank you.
