The AC Podcast

There has often been a tendency to be rather comparative when it comes to sharing testimonies. While Christian culture often lends its attention to the most tragic of stories, it doesn't share it's scars. Apologetics Canada is honored to have many talented speakers join our AC Adjunct Speaker team and on this weeks podcast Troy and Steve sit down with none other than Alanzo Paul. Tune into this week's episode as we introduce Alanzo to the AC Podcast audience. Hear about how God radically changed Alanzo's life and what he's doing with the grace he's been given.

Is America turning more pro-life? The majority opinion draft of the ruling on Roe v Wade shows that SCOTUS is set to overturn this infamous 1973 ruling that legalized abortion across all 50 states. The impact of this upcoming decision can be felt across the border in the Great White North. There was a short but intense period of Canadian media being abuzz with the talk of abortion. Why is this such a big deal? Steve and Wes invited Tabitha Ewert of We Need a Law to chat about the significance of this very sensitive cultural nerve point.

5 weeks, 4 members,17,598 feet,1 epic trip. The Steiger family is officially back from their trip from Nepal. They set out to share a "coming of age" adventure with their children as the hiked to Mount Everest Base Camp, with the hopes of bring back some incredible memories. Well, they did just that.

Tune into this week's episode to hear Part 1 of a family trip worthy of documentary.

What are some words you would use to label yourself? An Arminian Japanese engineer? A likeable Sudanese Sufi Muslim? There are a myriad of ways to identify and describe ourselves. Why do we use labels? Are there any pros and cons we should consider? Are there good ways and bad ways to use them? How do we go about the use of labels in a church context? Troy, Wes, and Steve are back this week to discuss these questions and more on this week’s episode of the AC Podcast.

The Bible is a big library of books. Naturally, people take certain memorable passages or verses for easy access. “For I know the plans I have for you…” or “I can do all things through Christ…” Some of these verses may even have a place in your cupboard, etched onto your favourite mug. Have you taken the time to look at these verses more closely for a deeper understanding? Steve, Troy and Wes sat down together to attempt just that on this week’s edition of the AC Podcast.

It's the Mother's Day takeover! For the first time AC hosts got the opportunity to hand the reins of the AC Podcast over to the incredible women in their lives.

Tune in and listen to Jasmine (wife of Troy), Shareena (wife of Steve) and Melissa (wife of Wes) as they discuss motherhood, marriage and ministry on this AC Podcast special.

It's no secret that the Christian Music industry has grown to heights and levels that rival the modern industry. Yet, it has to be said that their are potential dangers that come with celebrity culture finding its footing in the church. Troy sits down with CHVN radio host Mike Thom to chat about the modern music industry and the desire to keep worship as a matter of the heart rather than the paycheque.

Most, if not all, deliberate human activity gets filtered through the lens of some worldview. What has metaphysics got to do with medicine? As it turns out, quite a lot. Questions of medical ethics touch on what it means to be human, what the value of human life is, and a host of other issues of deepest significance. Today, Andy sat down with Raphael Samuel, an anesthesiologist and a Christian apologist, who is also one of Apologetics Canada's adjunct speakers, to discuss the beauty and the brokenness of the human body.

Why should I care about the environment?” Asked this question, most people would say, “because we need to save the planet for future generations.” Yet, if life has no meaning or purpose, why bother saving the environment for anyone, let alone future generations? We might as well get what we can while we can. If we ought to protect the environment (and we should), we need a worldview that provides a better answer. And what’s Easter got to do with the environment?
