Raising The Bar As Christian Believers
In this episode of the Cold-Case Christianity Broadcast, J. Warner continues his comprehensive description of the difference between teaching and training by articulating the need for parents and youth leaders to expect more from their children and students. Our kids can typically learn more, engage more deeply, and understand more than we often require of them. How can we "raise the bar" to better prepare them for the future? How can we better prepare ourselves by requiring more in our own process of discipleship? This training model is described in more detail in Forensic Faith: A Homicide Detective Makes the Case for a More Reasonable, Evidential Christian Faith. Be sure to check out Forensic Faith and the accompanying curriculum.

Do Christians Believe Simply Because They Were Raised In A Christian Environment?
In this blast from the past, J. Warner responds to a common atheistic claim: Skeptics argue that Christians believe Christianity is true simply because they were raised in a Christian culture. If believers were raised in a Muslim culture (according to the skeptics), they would believe that Islam is true with the same passion and certainty they have for Christianity. J. Warner responds to this common objection and answers listener email related to the "hidden" nature of God, the prerequisites of creation and dualism.
