We started a new podcast series a couple of weeks ago called, “Fostering Joy in 2021.” (You can listen to or watch the first episode, “The Role of Gratitude,” here.) In this episode, we’re focusing on finding joy in suffering. We’ll dispel some myths and dive into biblical examples of the purpose of suffering. We’ll […]The post MBA Episode 61: Finding Joy in Suffering appeared first on Mama Bear Apologetics.

Welcome to the first podcast of 2021! Amy and Hillary have been hard at work on our second book, but they are still putting together podcasts, too. In light of 2020 and the start of 2021, they thought it was especially important to focus on joy for the next several podcasts. This first episode in […]The post MBA Episode 60: Fostering Joy in 2021: The Role of Gratitude appeared first on Mama Bear Apologetics.

Welcome to our special Christmas edition podcast (and vlogcast)! In this episode, we chat about some of the common objections that seem to pop up every year around Christmas, including: Does Christmas have pagan roots? What should we do about Santa Claus? Should we say “Merry Christmas!” or “Happy Holidays!”? and more! And as our […]The post MBA Episode 59: Did Christmas Start Out as a Pagan Holiday?

Welcome to the first of our “Get to Know Our Team” podcasts, in which we interview Mama Bear team members (in no particular order!). In this interview, Amy Davison talks with Teasi Cannon, who contributed to the Mama Bear Apologetics book (she wrote Chapter 5: “God Helps Those Who Help Themselves – Self-Helpism” and co-authored […]The post MBA Episode 58: Get to Know Our Team: Teasi Cannon appeared first on Mama Bear Apologetics.

Chapter 3 of our first book, Mama Bear Apologetics, describes the “Chew and Spit” method. In the chapter, we write, “We don’t need to train our children to be picky when it comes to what they feed their bodies—they do this on their own. But we do have to train them to be discerning about […]The post MBA Episode 57: Teaching Your Kids the Chew and Spit Method appeared first on Mama Bear Apologetics.

Did you know that before Amy was a Mama Bear, that she was almost a witch?!?! Yeah, I didn’t either, until we had a conversation last July at Hillary’s house. Thank You God for pursuing her and wooing her back! I can’t imagine where Mama Bear would be without her. We’re changing things up for […]The post MBA Episode 56: A Conversation with an Almost Witch: Amy Davison Shares About Her Experiences with Wicca appeared first on Mama Bear Apologetics.

Let’s all make a pact, Mama Bears, that in a world gone mad…we don’t add to the madness. You may remember our recent Daily Discipleship videos about disagreeing well (you can watch them here), but we didn’t say all we wanted to about the topic in those videos, so Hillary and Amy decided to talk […]The post MBA Episode 55: The Art of Disagreeing Agreeably appeared first on Mama Bear Apologetics.

If you read the Mama Bear Apologetics book, you are likely familiar with the term “linguistic theft.” Hillary wishes she’d been able to include much more on that topic in the book, so in today’s podcast, Hillary and Amy are going to address the subject, because this is something that is taking our kids (and […]The post MBA Episode 54: Linguistic Theft: What It Is, How It Works, and WHY Your Kids Need to Know About It appeared first on Mama Bear Apologetics.

We took a break from our Dawkins series to discuss the racial tensions that have been building in our world (listen here), but we’re back with part 10 of our ongoing talk about Dawkins’s book, Outgrowing God. Today, we’re going to look at another area of his expertise, though he hasn’t really been involved in […]The post MBA Episode 52: Doubting Dawkins – Oh, Nuts!
