As a young person (kinda! 25 😛) I have some other thoughts on why the mental health crisis of our generation. One thing is that from a 'social justice' perspective there's been a lot of emphasis on destigmatizing mental health struggles, and so I think much of it is struggles people have had in the past, but this generation is being more open about, and more aware of to (in some cases) be diagnosed. I think all generations (especially unsaved people) have struggled with trying to fill the void that only God can fill with work, relationships, parenting, substances or other addictions, etc. (some of those are good things but when we use them to fill our souls it becomes unhealthy). And trying to fill that void is exhausting, meaningless (as Solomon describes), and depressing. I think that there could also be just a particular spiritual attack on our generation of depression/anxiety, but I can also think of many other practical reasons. Such as, as our culture has become more secular (I'm sure the ratio of actual believers hasn't changed much, but there's just less moral direction as a culture) there's been an increase in some depressing and traumatic circumstances often at a young age, divorce, abusive (including verbal/emotional) parents, sexual abuse/assault, abortion. These circumstances can just set someone up for lifelong struggles with depression/anxiety (not to say that someone can't overcome them especially with God, but it just gives them that tendency). Additionally I think covid just really amplified many young people's anxiety for a variety of reasons, fear of death/pain being very amplified, fear of the unknown being amplified, fear of the future, and of course (to varying degrees), a long season of isolation, for a group of people who already struggled with friendships and connections because of social media, etc. It caused, like, a generation wide panic attack 😆 that even I as a believer felt, especially at the beginning. Then, as I mentioned, social media, which really divides people, it's like you're seeing things *about* people without actually *connecting* with them. Also gender issues, because that is like posing to all young people that 'now you should be questioning you're whole identity' (as far as gender), you should dig really deep and examine and find within yourself, AM I a woman?? Do I really know that?? And that's a good thing, you *should* do that, That's what we're told. And that causes a ton of anxiety because everything is uncertain, and what if you're wrong? And because in general culture is telling us to find the answers in ourselves, find love and acceptance within ourselves, find confidence in ourselves. And that's not only impossible, it's a TON of pressure, and it's also just lonely! And (one more!) just a general message from secular media that the world is going to end very soon because of climate change or a number of other concerns (not to get into a whole climate change debate, I think some of it's possibly true but we certainly can't know the timing and God is sovereign over it!) but as an unbeliever to have that over your head is an overwhelming weight on their shoulders, and very anxiety inducing, as young people specifically. Pray for my generation! And pray that God uses these things to draw them to Himself! I think the people in my generation are truly starving for the truth and the gospel, even if they seem hostile to it. It may just take a lot of patience, a lot of walking along side them. Sorry for that GIANT comment 😆 but I hope it helps!
Excellent comment! I appreciate you articulating that. For people of my generation, it is just really hard to understand ( we aren’t in a world war or economic depression , so why so much anxiety?) your explanation is so helpful and makes sense!
Hi Lucy, I'm just a bit older than you (26), been out of college for 4 years and I live in the UK, but I think you've summed up these anxieties so well. One thing I would add is, I think depression/anxiety can be a kind of self fulfilling prophecy. And what I mean by that is, young people aren't being given the tools to deal with basic emotions that we experience on a daily basis such as fear, frustration, stress, etc, so they start saying they have depression, and then get diagnosed. But what if they've just been experiencing perfectly normal human feelings, yet because they don't know how to deal with it besides claiming they have depression, and they're in an echo chamber of hundreds of other young people experiencing the same fears, its created depression within them? Which is really sad and heartbreaking. But there's definitely hope and I really pray that young people start to recognise their need of a Saviour and turn to Jesus!
I’m beyond excited about this documentary and so grateful that God is using Michael and his talents in such an amazing way! Definitely going to donate and ask others to do the same. Also, would absolutely love the privilege of translating this film into my native language once it’s done.
Always love your programs, Alisa. These guests were especially intriguing and shared excellent messages that inspire. Very excited about UniverseDesigned. Will donate and am sending to all I know who will hopefully donate also. And cannot wait to share the finished film with those I know who are non-believers and those who have questions.
Your comments regarding heaven are excellent. Dallas Willard spoke to this as well. If you don't like God now, why would you want to go to heaven? (Paraphrase mine). This IS the question.
My grandfather (dad's father), who was an ordained minister, did not grow up in church. He came to Christ at 19. My grandmother (dad's mother) was raised in church, and both of my mom's parents were raised in church (mom's dad grew up Methodist and my mom's mother grew up in the Assemblies of God, just like me).
In the conversation with Eliza, the topic of through-the-roof anxiety levels of her generation came up. According to James Lindsay, who has dedicated himself to understanding "Critical Theory" and its myriad sub-topics with a view to exposing its falsity and the horrors that come from people accepting Critical Theory as a valid description of reality, that anxiety is a product of being purposely confused over what we know and how we know it. Critical Theory is rampant in sex education in public schools (and many private ones) and it deliberately sets out to destabilize all that we have known and believed regarding sex and sexuality for millenia. Having been de-stabilized regarding who one is, and having been burdened by being a member of a so-called privileged class, kids are filled with anxiety, guilt, etc, and have no anchors to hold onto. Lindsay professes to be an atheist, but it works with a lot of Christians, for he agrees with our great concerns over the shift seen in the basic philosophy of our day.
At one of the churches I was in as a kid, when I first started going there with my parents, the children were in church in the sanctuary because we didn't have Children's Church at the time.
Praying this will be a way of opening up Truth with my 16 yr old Grandson. He's studying engineering and wants to work in Space engineering. Very open to discussion. Can't believe there is a good God when this world is such a mess.
I think that often times we forget, or don’t understand, that just because our children grow up in church, or even if they “prayed a prayer” to receive Jesus, and maybe even got baptized, they might be self-deceived, or are hypocrites, still unregenerate and dead in their sins. I think many, if not most cases, our teens were never born again in the first place. I was one of those teens. This applies to many of the adults that deconstruct and “abandoned their faith.” Many of them were probably false coverts the whole time. Wheat and tares coexist in the church. I believe this explains why most teens walk away when they turn 18. They were never genuinely saved in the first place.
Alisa thanks for this show. I'm still watching but it's turning out to be a good show. Michael Ray Lewis film seems very interesting and I'm a former christian saying that. And Mike Licona is my favorite apologist and christian historian to listen to. I will say the film seems to be talking about the same arguments in support of a general creator figure. Muslims can use the same arguments. I'm more interested in the arguments for Christianity and please show how we get from the general arguments for a divine creator figure (same ones Islam and Judaism can use) to Christianity. Where is the chain that connects them? 18:29 Richard Dawkins said something like this: faith is accepting something without evidence. (I know some christians will claim their faith isn't blind faith) When a person accepts something without evidence, it becomes very hard to change their mind. Go to 18:29 That's why it was hard to convinced his wife (who he wanted to keep happy) that Christianity isn't true. P.s. There is evidence that the early followers of Jesus really believed that he was resurrected from the dead in some sense. P.s. Is it ok for us today to accept that Romulus was swept up to heaven in a whirlwind just because his followers really believed he was? It's probably not best for us today to accept something just because people 2 to 3 thousand years ago did. 19:13 "I looked into other world religions." I need more details. Is he only referring to the current religions today? Or did he researched the thousands of religions that were believed throughout history. There have been thousands of gods worshipped throughout history. Maybe the true religion was revealed 7,000 years ago. Just because we don't have evidence for it doesn't mean it is false....because absence of evidence isn't evidence of Absence. I heard that from some Frank guy. It's an impossible task to research the thousands of religions that was believed throughout history and if you are able to do it and you find the right religion and get that salvation, it would be one heck of a job. You did a great work.
@Sandalio Very interesting. It's a lot to respond to and I'm going to read the book of Daniel later. Question about Islam saying the Bible is the word of God. Could they just be referring to the Hebrew Bible? And do you believe there was an actual Adam in the garden?
You said you are a former Christian but your hear asking these questions so it seem your earnestly interested, and might be looking for a path back to faith. So I’ll reach out. One of the strongest arguments for Jesus actually being raised from the dead is the fact that all of the apostles were willing to go to their death rather then deny Christ and recant their testimony. Now think about that. They had absolutely nothing to gain and everything to lose by holding to what they said was true! And if it wasn’t true they absolutely knew. But they all stuck to their story and went to their deaths with the exception of John and that was only because they tried to kill him and couldn’t! When the New Testament books were written there were still many people alive who could’ve countered what they said if they were lying. But instead The writers appealed to the witness of the people they were writing to saying thing such as “you yourselves know” One of the biggest arguments I hear repeatedly is it was so long ago how do we know what the gospels originally said but there are I believe over 38,000 copies full or partial of these books ( far more than any other text from antiquity) and they were spread around early. Yet they can be compared to each other and shown to have maintained integrity. People can claim whatever they want there’s no other religion that has the vast magnitude of proof that Christianity does Jesus made some very strong claims about him being the only way and no one entering the kingdom of heaven if they didn’t believe in Him. And when he raised from the dead he proved he had the right to say the things he did! No credible historian will argue that Jesus did not raise from the dead there’s just too much evidence. It is even mentioned and secular records from the Romans and Secular historians. God is the same yesterday today and forever. And the truth of His word still holds.I hope you find your way back.
@@76sherie Well I am very interested in belief regardless of which religion. When I started to research, I asked myself what did the ancient world believe and why did they believe it. What do I believe and why do I believe it and how are the two connected. My question is how do you know all of the disciples were willing to die without recanting? If I'm not mistaken I think it's only three, one being Steven. And wouldn't non Christian historians repeat what Christians at that time was already saying? If I was a reporter today and I was writing about Trump supporters, I would write that they believed he was the greatest president in US history. That doesn't mean I accept that claim. I'm only reporting what some Trump supporters believe. Like I said earlier, I accept that the early followers of Jesus came to believe he was resurrected from the dead. Paul claimed Jesus appeared to him and he jumped on board. Paul doesn't give us details about how Jesus appeared to him. We have details in acts but Paul didn't write acts. I'm starting to wonder if Paul is a credible witness with his confession of being tormented by a "Messenger of Satan" Would you put someone on the stand if they said they were being tormented by a demon? Paul claims that he was caught up to heaven. Now he says he was caught up then given the demon but did he have a mental episode and then was caught up to heaven. We know people in the ancient world classified mental illness as being possess by a demon.
@Aaron Monroe You quote Dawkins: "Faith is accepting something without evidence". That's exactly what trust is, by definition. He's right in that sense. Trust is beautiful. It's also intangible. Like love. And like pure love, trust makes the world go round. You need to think about why that's true in your daily life... I first laid eyes on my mother's birth certificate when I was in my late 20s and she had it on the table because she was applying for a passport. Guess what? Everything she had already told us was true: her birth date, the place of her birth, the names of her mother and father (and his profession). Did I exclaim "oh WOW! It's all true!" No. I wasn't in the least bit surprised because I had known her all my life, had a personal relationship with her and knew she was a loving and truthful person. I wasn't as close to my father growing up and I also saw his birth certificate, but only after he died in his late 70s. Still, I had known him as a truthful person. I had had no reason to doubt that what he told us of himself was true. He was to be trusted. And indeed, it was all there. Every journey, every exchange (whether with friends, family, service providers eg taxi and bus drivers or storekeepers etc etc) is based on trust. Sometimes blind trust. Most people in all the cities in Europe (where I live) take public transport twice a day for all their working lives. I never once saw any one of them ask to check the driver's licence and record or smell his/her breath. Just like with a pilot of a plane, they don't even see what he/she looks like. Christianity however, is not blind trust. We have a historical record. None of the contemporary secular historians (eg Pliny, Josephus) denied Jesus's existence but on the contrary, they spoke about him. All you have to do is read his words and decide if he's telling the Truth or not. This is easy but it's hard in one sense and that is that the "values" proclaimed in passages like the Beatitudes and much of what is in the Gospels (and even in the epistles) is so much ingrained in Western culture that we're somewhat immune to it. We see politeness, honesty, respect, rehabilitation for prisoners, justice, mercy, forgiveness, helping and caring for the sick and vulnerable, laughter, music etc as "normal", as if these things have just always been there and in us. But they were revolutionary at the time. And they still are revolutionary in countries like the one I live in where deceit, dishonesty, grudges, unforgiveness, mercilessness, indifference to the suffering stranger, frowning, lock-em-up-and-throw-away-the-key attitudes to prisoners etc are the norm (and usually applauded). The Beatitudes were also revolutionary to the Pharisees who had come up with a list opposite to the Beatitudes (which Jesus knew all too well). The Beatitudes are also revolutionary because they pointed to a big part of the Good News, which is a revolution of the heart, the new birth (underlined by Jesus in John 3:3-8 and by Paul in Romans 8:9, 2 Corinthians 5:17 & 13:5 and Ephesians 2:1-10 etc). The Beatitudes become the "natural walk" of the regenerate believer (the only kind of believer: John 1:12-13) who is now born of God and a child of God rather than being a child of this world and its ways or a child of Satan and his ways. Galatians 5:19-23 is THE passage that sums up this new life in the Spirit, which begins at conversion and continues for eternity. Finally, Jesus was seen "by [over] 500 people" after his Resurrection (according to 1 Corinthians 15:4-8) And moreover, there's nothing that Paul says that contradicts Jesus's words. He expands on them. I think you should read Acts again (and again) because you get to know Paul more, you see his COHERENCE and thus reliability in Acts and his epistles and you also see that Luke journeyed with Paul AND OTHERS (eg Barnabas, Silas, John Mark, Peter initially) so it's not like Paul could just "make up stuff"! There were constantly corroborating witnesses around. Jesus personally commissioned Paul and spoke to him personally on his journeys more than once (read Acts) so make sure you understand what you're saying when you doubt Paul's reliability. The best way to know Truth is to trust and to then wait and see whether your trust is well-placed. The first people to travel on a train or bus or plane or in the subway did so by TRUST. They had no statistics and nobody's experience to go on. The more they travelled, the more they realized their trust was well placed. I suggest you read the Gospel of John and simply take Jesus at his word (as it was reported a lady years ago said when asked to explain her faith: "I simply take Jesus at his word. I began taking him at his word many years ago and he has never let me down"). Jesus is "the way, the Truth and the life" (John 14:6) and so he can be trusted. The more you take him at his word (with faith like a child i.e child-LIKE, not childISH: Matthew 18:3), the more he reveals of himself. He is the only way to the Father, the only way to a 100% fulfilled life (with no fear, guilt, shame or disappointment) here and the only way to eternal life.
@@leenieledejo6849 Trust is not the reason why the world goes around. The world goes around and is run by the evidence and repeatable demonstrations. A plane, a train and an automobile were demonstrated to the world so now we know they are a reliable mode of transportation. A person doesn't have to trust the pilot because that person knows something has been demonstrated in order for the airliner to be in business. However if that person doesn't understand how a big heavy plane can stay in the sky or heaven then they may need to trust or have faith. Now if you were on the model that the Wright Brothers built......that's faith because the ability for us to fly in heaven wouldn't have been demonstrated yet. Christianity does have an historical record and the evidence that people believed in Jesus is clear. Christianity is a historical record of belief. When historians like Josephus talks about Christians, he is only reporting what Christians are already saying at the time. So Josephus reported what he heard christians say. How do you know what Josephus reported is accurate? The gospel authors are not different. They reported what they heard and some even used written sources to write their gospels. At times they changed what allegedly happened historically because of their particular theology. For example, John moves when Jesus is being killed. John wanted Jesus to be killed at the same time the Lambs were being slaughtered because John proclaimed Jesus is the "Lamb of God". John also have Jesus clearing the temple very early in his ministry and that is also different from the first three gospels. ●Matthew 5 1One day as he saw the crowds gathering, Jesus went up on the mountainside and sat down. His disciples gathered around him, 2 and he began to teach them. 17 “Don’t misunderstand why I have come. I did not come to abolish the law of Moses or the writings of the prophets. No, I came to accomplish their purpose. 18 I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not even the smallest detail of God’s law will disappear until its purpose is achieved. 19 So if you ignore the least commandment and teach others to do the same, you will be called the least in the Kingdom of Heaven. But anyone who obeys God’s laws and teaches them will be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven. 20 “But I warn you-unless your righteousness is better than the righteousness of the teachers of religious law and the Pharisees, you will never enter the Kingdom of Heaven! ●Galatians 3 10 But those who depend on the law to make them right with God are under his curse, for the Scriptures say, “Cursed is everyone who does not observe and obey all the commands that are written in God’s Book of the Law.”[d] 11 So it is clear that no one can be made right with God by trying to keep the law. For the Scriptures say, “It is through faith that a righteous person has life.”[e] 12 This way of faith is very different from the way of law, which says, “It is through obeying the law that a person has life.”[f] 13 But Christ has rescued us from the curse pronounced by the law. When he was hung on the cross, he took upon himself the curse for our wrongdoing. For it is written in the Scriptures, “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree ■Heaven and earth will pass away before the smallest detail of the law disappear or until everything is accomplished. Did Jesus fulfill all the prophecies? Or is it something that he have to do during the 1,000 year reign? Paul and what Jesus was reported to have said disagreed.
I thought it was normal for everyone (preschool and up, at least) to go to the same worship service/big church/main service. Sure, you split everyone up for the smaller Sunday School/Bible study groups before/after the worship service, but I've only ever had a "children's church" once or twice and it was always short-lived, lol 😅. I mean, where else would you go? If you're parents stay for the worship service, then you have to, as well.
People can be followers of Christ even though they have never heard of Jesus. Jesus said that those who follow his laws are those who love him. That truth includes forgiveness and repentance. Christ is not a body that lived for a while and seemed to do things. "That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit." Christ is truth and love.
Unfortunately God doesnt have to have all this time, it doesn't take God a long time to make all the laws and fine tuning. I hope he doesn't talk about the big bang hypothesis It has all kinds of problems. Its been scientific group think. You can't fit the Bible into it. Well as I write this video showed Ross talking about going back to a singularity. There so many problems with the hypothesis. The very data that they hang their "proof" of the big bang on, the cosmic microwave background has serious problem. A noted astrophysicist says "either we are the center of the universe or everything we know has been wrong". Scientists call this aspect of the CBM the "axis of evil". They still don't have a consistent valid answer to this. Let alone other issues. Don't know it matters but to not believe the flood was a global event, is to take a major point of the Bible and throw it out. Nathaniel Jeaneson's book on genetics, "Traced "human DNA's big surprised" points right back to Noah's family. and the tower of Babel. There's no reason not to believe in a global flood (its what it says), and the tower of babel and the spread of mankind over the earth from there. To believe in the big bang is a horrible compromise. If Ross is right, we are going to have to wait another 13 billion years until the new heavens and earth are made. Sorry for ranting, but.. I am thrilled he now knows Jesus, and pray the movie will do what we all want, but to talk about the big bang hypothesis showing proof for God is sad and not a thing you have to do, not at all.
Big Bang theory in the Bible - "God spoke, and - bang - it happened!" I'm a recent creationist and have plenty of scientific evidence, as well as the Hebrew verb tenses in Genesis, to back up my position.
Straw man arguments. You clearly don't understand the use of 'Big Bang' terminology. As Greg Koukl says, "A Big Bang requires a Big Banger". That is the point. God spoke it into being: Bang. It wasn't an accidental, random event
I'm a young earth creationist and think that there's really little good reason to try to fit secular-derived evolutionary theory into the Biblical framework. That said, I find it very amusing that evolution, which is the best model that atheists have for explaining our existence, is so absurdly implausible fine tuning that it requires a miracle to work.
Faith is belief in anything without good evidence to support it. Stories about gods, miracles, demons and angels are just stories that people read and believe and teach to their children. I prefer the scientific method for accuracy and reliability before I put my faith in it.
I truly believe in the fruit of understanding the word of God and finding the factual amongst the supernatural, but it was surprising to hear how little was discussed on the work of the Holy Spirit in salvation or coming to faith. It is only by faith that we are saved. Not through cracking open the facts about the origins of creation of the universe. I'm sure the guests of this episode would probably not refute this, but the fact that the work of the Holy Spirit was omitted in their stories of coming to faith, shows that maybe, we actually believe, in some way, that we give ourselves more credit in our coming to Jesus. As though we met the Lord halfway. There was nothing in Christ that we would desire him. It is the work of the Holy Spirit that brings us to a place of repentance from dead works and faith towards God. I am slowly not enjoying Alisha's content because because I see a lack of balanced between the word and the Spirit.
She is, just in a different manner. Her speciality is deconstruction. There are many channels that speak on other current events. What specifically are you looking for ?
If someone says that he is God he is insane. If someone says that a dead person came back to life he is a liar. This is common sense. Make Christianity make sense.
@@dentonhahn2907 I have evidence too. First of all I'm telling that I'm God. Secondly I have a group of 10 followers who will tell you that I have walked on water, fed the multitudes and also I died and three days later dug myself out of my grave and now I'm alive again. Besides that my followers will tell you that I was born in Bethlehem. If you worship me you will go to eternal paradise however if you refuse to worship me you will go to eternal hell. Will you worship me?
@@JacobStein1960 when you forgive sin and stop storms, heal the sick, die and rise again, oh and your followers must be tortured and killed for what they saw you do. Not ten but over five hundred who seen you after you have been beaten nailed to a cross and a spears ran in your side, after you have lived a morally perfect life, fulfilled all the prophecies of the bible, I promise I will listen very carefully to everything you say. So get started.
@@dentonhahn2907 There isn't much evidence about how the authors of the gospels died. That's not in the Bible. And you don't have testimony from 500 hundred people. Just four people. So I have my ten followers over here who will swear that I did all those things. Who are these followers? Pretty average people. A drug dealer, A prostitute. A fisherman. No one famous or important. Just 10 random people that I picked up off the street however they will swear to you that I did all those things. Worship me or you are eternally damned.
@@JacobStein1960 absolutely it is Paul says don't take my word go talk to the people who are still alive who have seen the risen Lord, over 500 who are still around. Really? Who at that time or any other is more famous than Christ? Why would I believe someone because they are famous? Generally people of fame are much less trustworthy that the average man on the street, yes and the way their lives changed dramatically is evidence something changed their minds and hearts. Come on now, the evidence is Christ is risen, the fact that the tomb is named anyone could check it out, the fact that no one contemporary refuted the claim, and there are other historical sources that speak of Jesus Christ.
Alisa, I don’t understand why you have to put a disclaimer on the fact that you’re not making money on things. Are there really people who love your channel accuse you of doing things just for the money. As for me, you do not have to defend yourself. God bless you.
Why not put your documentary on UA-cam for free? Oh yeah, like Alisa and other apologists book of the month club, you are doing this for profit. Take away the profit motive and your arguments for Christianity don't look so good, don't they?
Why spend time and effort arguing against something you don't believe exists? I think you do believe, and are just waiting for someone to convince you that you do. I pray that you will see the Light, and realize what you know in your heart to be true.

As a young person (kinda! 25 😛) I have some other thoughts on why the mental health crisis of our generation. One thing is that from a 'social justice' perspective there's been a lot of emphasis on destigmatizing mental health struggles, and so I think much of it is struggles people have had in the past, but this generation is being more open about, and more aware of to (in some cases) be diagnosed. I think all generations (especially unsaved people) have struggled with trying to fill the void that only God can fill with work, relationships, parenting, substances or other addictions, etc. (some of those are good things but when we use them to fill our souls it becomes unhealthy). And trying to fill that void is exhausting, meaningless (as Solomon describes), and depressing. I think that there could also be just a particular spiritual attack on our generation of depression/anxiety, but I can also think of many other practical reasons. Such as, as our culture has become more secular (I'm sure the ratio of actual believers hasn't changed much, but there's just less moral direction as a culture) there's been an increase in some depressing and traumatic circumstances often at a young age, divorce, abusive (including verbal/emotional) parents, sexual abuse/assault, abortion. These circumstances can just set someone up for lifelong struggles with depression/anxiety (not to say that someone can't overcome them especially with God, but it just gives them that tendency). Additionally I think covid just really amplified many young people's anxiety for a variety of reasons, fear of death/pain being very amplified, fear of the unknown being amplified, fear of the future, and of course (to varying degrees), a long season of isolation, for a group of people who already struggled with friendships and connections because of social media, etc. It caused, like, a generation wide panic attack 😆 that even I as a believer felt, especially at the beginning. Then, as I mentioned, social media, which really divides people, it's like you're seeing things *about* people without actually *connecting* with them. Also gender issues, because that is like posing to all young people that 'now you should be questioning you're whole identity' (as far as gender), you should dig really deep and examine and find within yourself, AM I a woman?? Do I really know that?? And that's a good thing, you *should* do that, That's what we're told. And that causes a ton of anxiety because everything is uncertain, and what if you're wrong? And because in general culture is telling us to find the answers in ourselves, find love and acceptance within ourselves, find confidence in ourselves. And that's not only impossible, it's a TON of pressure, and it's also just lonely! And (one more!) just a general message from secular media that the world is going to end very soon because of climate change or a number of other concerns (not to get into a whole climate change debate, I think some of it's possibly true but we certainly can't know the timing and God is sovereign over it!) but as an unbeliever to have that over your head is an overwhelming weight on their shoulders, and very anxiety inducing, as young people specifically.
Pray for my generation! And pray that God uses these things to draw them to Himself! I think the people in my generation are truly starving for the truth and the gospel, even if they seem hostile to it. It may just take a lot of patience, a lot of walking along side them. Sorry for that GIANT comment 😆 but I hope it helps!
Excellent comment! I appreciate you articulating that. For people of my generation, it is just really hard to understand ( we aren’t in a world war or economic depression , so why so much anxiety?) your explanation is so helpful and makes sense!
@@Julia29853 Of course! I didn't even realize how many reasons there were until I started to type them out 😆 I'm glad it's helpful! 💞
Hi Lucy, I'm just a bit older than you (26), been out of college for 4 years and I live in the UK, but I think you've summed up these anxieties so well.
One thing I would add is, I think depression/anxiety can be a kind of self fulfilling prophecy. And what I mean by that is, young people aren't being given the tools to deal with basic emotions that we experience on a daily basis such as fear, frustration, stress, etc, so they start saying they have depression, and then get diagnosed. But what if they've just been experiencing perfectly normal human feelings, yet because they don't know how to deal with it besides claiming they have depression, and they're in an echo chamber of hundreds of other young people experiencing the same fears, its created depression within them?
Which is really sad and heartbreaking. But there's definitely hope and I really pray that young people start to recognise their need of a Saviour and turn to Jesus!
@@caryssonford That is true! I've just been recognizing that part of it more recently
There's a whole lot of wisdom in what you wrote!! You've articulated many different ideas beautifully and clearly.
Great show all around! Shout out to my friend Gary and Eliza!
I’m beyond excited about this documentary and so grateful that God is using Michael and his talents in such an amazing way! Definitely going to donate and ask others to do the same. Also, would absolutely love the privilege of translating this film into my native language once it’s done.
What an honor and privilege to donate!!! I’m so excited for this to hit the hearts of unbelievers and transform their lives 🙌❤️❤️
Looking forward to hearing Michael! Thx for having him on your show!!!! Smart guy!!!
This is so exciting!!
I can’t wait for this to come out. I’m thinking Christmas gifts for everyone- NEXT YEAR!!
Wow. This film will change lives! Can’t wait to watch.
oh man! Goosebumps from the trailer - super excited for this!
Cannot wait. I will head over to the site to support this! Awesome interview.
Great encouraging interviews!!! Thank you soooo much!
Amazing! God bless you!
Brilliant. The Lord will bless this project.
This is my favorite video Alisa has done, so good! That movie looks amazing, loved hearing the testimonies of everyone!
Always love your programs, Alisa. These guests were especially intriguing and shared excellent messages that inspire. Very excited about UniverseDesigned. Will donate and am sending to all I know who will hopefully donate also. And cannot wait to share the finished film with those I know who are non-believers and those who have questions.
Thank you!
Great show! Thank you!
Michael's documentary looks AWESOME!! What an amazing tool it will be!
Just watched the trailer!!! So excited!!!
Truly inspirational. Thank you, Alisa. I would love to see more stories like these. So encouraging when it comes to running this race..
This is a wonderful idea for showing the evidence of Jesus.....I love donating in memory of my grandma who planted seeds her whole life!
Excellent interviews!! Progressive theology has gripped Indian seminaries since ages! 😭
Your comments regarding heaven are excellent. Dallas Willard spoke to this as well. If you don't like God now, why would you want to go to heaven? (Paraphrase mine). This IS the question.
True!!
If in doubt seek the reassuring answer. GOD.
So good! Thanks for sharing
My grandfather (dad's father), who was an ordained minister, did not grow up in church. He came to Christ at 19. My grandmother (dad's mother) was raised in church, and both of my mom's parents were raised in church (mom's dad grew up Methodist and my mom's mother grew up in the Assemblies of God, just like me).
In the conversation with Eliza, the topic of through-the-roof anxiety levels of her generation came up. According to James Lindsay, who has dedicated himself to understanding "Critical Theory" and its myriad sub-topics with a view to exposing its falsity and the horrors that come from people accepting Critical Theory as a valid description of reality, that anxiety is a product of being purposely confused over what we know and how we know it. Critical Theory is rampant in sex education in public schools (and many private ones) and it deliberately sets out to destabilize all that we have known and believed regarding sex and sexuality for millenia. Having been de-stabilized regarding who one is, and having been burdened by being a member of a so-called privileged class, kids are filled with anxiety, guilt, etc, and have no anchors to hold onto.
Lindsay professes to be an atheist, but it works with a lot of Christians, for he agrees with our great concerns over the shift seen in the basic philosophy of our day.
Can’t wait to see this!!!
My pleasure to donate. SO MANY family members unsaved and maybe they would watch this.
Ought I cannot wait to watch this
At one of the churches I was in as a kid, when I first started going there with my parents, the children were in church in the sanctuary because we didn't have Children's Church at the time.
Praying this will be a way of opening up Truth with my 16 yr old Grandson. He's studying engineering and wants to work in Space engineering. Very open to discussion. Can't believe there is a good God when this world is such a mess.
He should absolutely interview Lee Stroble too! His story is almost identical to Lee's!
Beautiful!! 😍
Great show today! I'm definitely going to contribute to that movie
Alisa you made come on to UA-cam 😁😆😅🤣. I'm listening to it on Spotify and will go back after watching the trailer LOL.
Love the podcast! Can’t wait to see the film 😄
You should check out Andrea Crum. She is an amazing Cultural Apologist with a powerful story. I’d love to hear it again!
His story sounds a lot like Lee Strobel’s in “The Case for Christ”
I think that often times we forget, or don’t understand, that just because our children grow up in church, or even if they “prayed a prayer” to receive Jesus, and maybe even got baptized, they might be self-deceived, or are hypocrites, still unregenerate and dead in their sins. I think many, if not most cases, our teens were never born again in the first place. I was one of those teens.
This applies to many of the adults that deconstruct and “abandoned their faith.” Many of them were probably false coverts the whole time. Wheat and tares coexist in the church. I believe this explains why most teens walk away when they turn 18. They were never genuinely saved in the first place.
Alisa thanks for this show. I'm still watching but it's turning out to be a good show. Michael Ray Lewis film seems very interesting and I'm a former christian saying that. And Mike Licona is my favorite apologist and christian historian to listen to.
I will say the film seems to be talking about the same arguments in support of a general creator figure. Muslims can use the same arguments. I'm more interested in the arguments for Christianity and please show how we get from the general arguments for a divine creator figure (same ones Islam and Judaism can use) to Christianity. Where is the chain that connects them?
18:29
Richard Dawkins said something like this: faith is accepting something without evidence. (I know some christians will claim their faith isn't blind faith)
When a person accepts something without evidence, it becomes very hard to change their mind.
Go to 18:29 That's why it was hard to convinced his wife (who he wanted to keep happy) that Christianity isn't true.
P.s. There is evidence that the early followers of Jesus really believed that he was resurrected from the dead in some sense.
P.s. Is it ok for us today to accept that Romulus was swept up to heaven in a whirlwind just because his followers really believed he was?
It's probably not best for us today to accept something just because people 2 to 3 thousand years ago did.
19:13 "I looked into other world religions."
I need more details. Is he only referring to the current religions today? Or did he researched the thousands of religions that were believed throughout history.
There have been thousands of gods worshipped throughout history. Maybe the true religion was revealed 7,000 years ago. Just because we don't have evidence for it doesn't mean it is false....because absence of evidence isn't evidence of Absence. I heard that from some Frank guy.
It's an impossible task to research the thousands of religions that was believed throughout history and if you are able to do it and you find the right religion and get that salvation, it would be one heck of a job. You did a great work.
@Sandalio
Very interesting. It's a lot to respond to and I'm going to read the book of Daniel later.
Question about Islam saying the Bible is the word of God. Could they just be referring to the Hebrew Bible?
And do you believe there was an actual Adam in the garden?
You said you are a former Christian but your hear asking these questions so it seem your earnestly interested, and might be looking for a path back to faith. So I’ll reach out. One of the strongest arguments for Jesus actually being raised from the dead is the fact that all of the apostles were willing to go to their death rather then deny Christ and recant their testimony. Now think about that. They had absolutely nothing to gain and everything to lose by holding to what they said was true! And if it wasn’t true they absolutely knew. But they all stuck to their story and went to their deaths with the exception of John and that was only because they tried to kill him and couldn’t! When the New Testament books were written there were still many people alive who could’ve countered what they said if they were lying. But instead The writers appealed to the witness of the people they were writing to saying thing such as “you yourselves know” One of the biggest arguments I hear repeatedly is it was so long ago how do we know what the gospels originally said but there are I believe over 38,000 copies full or partial of these books ( far more than any other text from antiquity) and they were spread around early. Yet they can be compared to each other and shown to have maintained integrity. People can claim whatever they want there’s no other religion that has the vast magnitude of proof that Christianity does Jesus made some very strong claims about him being the only way and no one entering the kingdom of heaven if they didn’t believe in Him. And when he raised from the dead he proved he had the right to say the things he did! No credible historian will argue that Jesus did not raise from the dead there’s just too much evidence. It is even mentioned and secular records from the Romans and Secular historians. God is the same yesterday today and forever. And the truth of His word still holds.I hope you find your way back.
@@76sherie
Well I am very interested in belief regardless of which religion.
When I started to research, I asked myself what did the ancient world believe and why did they believe it. What do I believe and why do I believe it and how are the two connected.
My question is how do you know all of the disciples were willing to die without recanting? If I'm not mistaken I think it's only three, one being Steven.
And wouldn't non Christian historians repeat what Christians at that time was already saying?
If I was a reporter today and I was writing about Trump supporters, I would write that they believed he was the greatest president in US history. That doesn't mean I accept that claim. I'm only reporting what some Trump supporters believe.
Like I said earlier, I accept that the early followers of Jesus came to believe he was resurrected from the dead. Paul claimed Jesus appeared to him and he jumped on board. Paul doesn't give us details about how Jesus appeared to him. We have details in acts but Paul didn't write acts. I'm starting to wonder if Paul is a credible witness with his confession of being tormented by a "Messenger of Satan"
Would you put someone on the stand if they said they were being tormented by a demon?
Paul claims that he was caught up to heaven. Now he says he was caught up then given the demon but
did he have a mental episode and then was caught up to heaven.
We know people in the ancient world classified mental illness as being possess by a demon.
@Aaron Monroe You quote Dawkins: "Faith is accepting something without evidence".
That's exactly what trust is, by definition. He's right in that sense. Trust is beautiful. It's also intangible. Like love. And like pure love, trust makes the world go round. You need to think about why that's true in your daily life...
I first laid eyes on my mother's birth certificate when I was in my late 20s and she had it on the table because she was applying for a passport. Guess what? Everything she had already told us was true: her birth date, the place of her birth, the names of her mother and father (and his profession).
Did I exclaim "oh WOW! It's all true!" No. I wasn't in the least bit surprised because I had known her all my life, had a personal relationship with her and knew she was a loving and truthful person.
I wasn't as close to my father growing up and I also saw his birth certificate, but only after he died in his late 70s. Still, I had known him as a truthful person. I had had no reason to doubt that what he told us of himself was true.
He was to be trusted. And indeed, it was all there.
Every journey, every exchange (whether with friends, family, service providers eg taxi and bus drivers or storekeepers etc etc) is based on trust. Sometimes blind trust.
Most people in all the cities in Europe (where I live) take public transport twice a day for all their working lives.
I never once saw any one of them ask to check the driver's licence and record or smell his/her breath. Just like with a pilot of a plane, they don't even see what he/she looks like.
Christianity however, is not blind trust. We have a historical record. None of the contemporary secular historians (eg Pliny, Josephus) denied Jesus's existence but on the contrary, they spoke about him.
All you have to do is read his words and decide if he's telling the Truth or not.
This is easy but it's hard in one sense and that is that the "values" proclaimed in passages like the Beatitudes and much of what is in the Gospels (and even in the epistles) is so much ingrained in Western culture that we're somewhat immune to it. We see politeness, honesty, respect, rehabilitation for prisoners, justice, mercy, forgiveness, helping and caring for the sick and vulnerable, laughter, music etc as "normal", as if these things have just always been there and in us.
But they were revolutionary at the time.
And they still are revolutionary in countries like the one I live in where deceit, dishonesty, grudges, unforgiveness, mercilessness, indifference to the suffering stranger, frowning, lock-em-up-and-throw-away-the-key attitudes to prisoners etc are the norm (and usually applauded).
The Beatitudes were also revolutionary to the Pharisees who had come up with a list opposite to the Beatitudes (which Jesus knew all too well).
The Beatitudes are also revolutionary because they pointed to a big part of the Good News, which is a revolution of the heart, the new birth (underlined by Jesus in John 3:3-8 and by Paul in Romans 8:9, 2 Corinthians 5:17 & 13:5 and Ephesians 2:1-10 etc).
The Beatitudes become the "natural walk" of the regenerate believer (the only kind of believer: John 1:12-13) who is now born of God and a child of God rather than being a child of this world and its ways or a child of Satan and his ways.
Galatians 5:19-23 is THE passage that sums up this new life in the Spirit, which begins at conversion and continues for eternity.
Finally, Jesus was seen "by [over] 500 people" after his Resurrection (according to 1 Corinthians 15:4-8) And moreover, there's nothing that Paul says that contradicts Jesus's words. He expands on them. I think you should read Acts again (and again) because you get to know Paul more, you see his COHERENCE and thus reliability in Acts and his epistles and you also see that Luke journeyed with Paul AND OTHERS (eg Barnabas, Silas, John Mark, Peter initially) so it's not like Paul could just "make up stuff"! There were constantly corroborating witnesses around.
Jesus personally commissioned Paul and spoke to him personally on his journeys more than once (read Acts) so make sure you understand what you're saying when you doubt Paul's reliability.
The best way to know Truth is to trust and to then wait and see whether your trust is well-placed.
The first people to travel on a train or
bus or plane or in the subway did so by TRUST.
They had no statistics and nobody's experience to go on. The more they travelled, the more they realized their trust was well placed.
I suggest you read the Gospel of John and simply take Jesus at his word (as it was reported a lady years ago said when asked to explain her faith: "I simply take Jesus at his word. I began taking him at his word many years ago and he has never let me down").
Jesus is "the way, the Truth and the life" (John 14:6) and so he can be trusted. The more you take him at his word (with faith like a child i.e child-LIKE, not childISH: Matthew 18:3), the more he reveals of himself.
He is the only way to the Father, the only way to a 100% fulfilled life (with no fear, guilt, shame or disappointment) here and the only way to eternal life.
@@leenieledejo6849
Trust is not the reason why the world goes around. The world goes around and is run by the evidence and repeatable demonstrations.
A plane, a train and an automobile were demonstrated to the world so now we know they are a reliable mode of transportation. A person doesn't have to trust the pilot because that person knows something has been demonstrated in order for the airliner to be in business. However if that person doesn't understand how a big heavy plane can stay in the sky or heaven then they may need to trust or have faith. Now if you were on the model that the Wright Brothers built......that's faith because the ability for us to fly in heaven wouldn't have been demonstrated yet.
Christianity does have an historical record and the evidence that people believed in Jesus is clear. Christianity is a historical record of belief. When historians like Josephus talks about Christians, he is only reporting what Christians are already saying at the time. So Josephus reported what he heard christians say. How do you know what Josephus reported is accurate? The gospel authors are not different. They reported what they heard and some even used written sources to write their gospels. At times they changed what allegedly happened historically because of their particular theology. For example, John moves when Jesus is being killed. John wanted Jesus to be killed at the same time the Lambs were being slaughtered because John proclaimed Jesus is the "Lamb of God". John also have Jesus clearing the temple very early in his ministry and that is also different from the first three gospels.
●Matthew 5
1One day as he saw the crowds gathering, Jesus went up on the mountainside and sat down. His disciples gathered around him, 2 and he began to teach them.
17 “Don’t misunderstand why I have come. I did not come to abolish the law of Moses or the writings of the prophets. No, I came to accomplish their purpose. 18 I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not even the smallest detail of God’s law will disappear until its purpose is achieved. 19 So if you ignore the least commandment and teach others to do the same, you will be called the least in the Kingdom of Heaven. But anyone who obeys God’s laws and teaches them will be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven.
20 “But I warn you-unless your righteousness is better than the righteousness of the teachers of religious law and the Pharisees, you will never enter the Kingdom of Heaven!
●Galatians 3
10 But those who depend on the law to make them right with God are under his curse, for the Scriptures say, “Cursed is everyone who does not observe and obey all the commands that are written in God’s Book of the Law.”[d] 11 So it is clear that no one can be made right with God by trying to keep the law. For the Scriptures say, “It is through faith that a righteous person has life.”[e] 12 This way of faith is very different from the way of law, which says, “It is through obeying the law that a person has life.”[f]
13 But Christ has rescued us from the curse pronounced by the law. When he was hung on the cross, he took upon himself the curse for our wrongdoing. For it is written in the Scriptures, “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree
■Heaven and earth will pass away before the smallest detail of the law disappear or until everything is accomplished.
Did Jesus fulfill all the prophecies? Or is it something that he have to do during the 1,000 year reign?
Paul and what Jesus was reported to have said disagreed.
I hope Michael interviews Dr. James Tour as well.
What is the eta on the apologetic documentary?
I thought it was normal for everyone (preschool and up, at least) to go to the same worship service/big church/main service. Sure, you split everyone up for the smaller Sunday School/Bible study groups before/after the worship service, but I've only ever had a "children's church" once or twice and it was always short-lived, lol 😅. I mean, where else would you go? If you're parents stay for the worship service, then you have to, as well.
People can be followers of Christ even though they have never heard of Jesus. Jesus said that those who follow his laws are those who love him. That truth includes forgiveness and repentance.
Christ is not a body that lived for a while and seemed to do things. "That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit." Christ is truth and love.
Unfortunately God doesnt have to have all this time, it doesn't take God a long time to make all the laws and fine tuning.
I hope he doesn't talk about the big bang hypothesis It has all kinds of problems. Its been scientific group think. You can't fit the Bible into it. Well as I write this video showed Ross talking about going back to a singularity.
There so many problems with the hypothesis. The very data that they hang their "proof" of the big bang on, the cosmic microwave background has serious problem.
A noted astrophysicist says "either we are the center of the universe or everything we know has been wrong". Scientists call this aspect of the CBM the "axis of evil". They still don't have a consistent valid answer to this. Let alone other issues.
Don't know it matters but to not believe the flood was a global event, is to take a major point of the Bible and throw it out.
Nathaniel Jeaneson's book on genetics, "Traced "human DNA's big surprised" points right back to Noah's family.
and the tower of Babel.
There's no reason not to believe in a global flood (its what it says), and the tower of babel and the spread of mankind over the earth from there.
To believe in the big bang is a horrible compromise.
If Ross is right, we are going to have to wait another 13 billion years until the new heavens and earth are made. Sorry for ranting, but.. I am thrilled he now knows Jesus, and pray the movie will do what we all want, but to talk about the big bang hypothesis showing proof for God is sad and not a thing you have to do, not at all.
Big Bang theory in the Bible - "God spoke, and - bang - it happened!" I'm a recent creationist and have plenty of scientific evidence, as well as the Hebrew verb tenses in Genesis, to back up my position.
Straw man arguments. You clearly don't understand the use of 'Big Bang' terminology. As Greg Koukl says, "A Big Bang requires a Big Banger". That is the point. God spoke it into being: Bang. It wasn't an accidental, random event
I'm a young earth creationist and think that there's really little good reason to try to fit secular-derived evolutionary theory into the Biblical framework. That said, I find it very amusing that evolution, which is the best model that atheists have for explaining our existence, is so absurdly implausible fine tuning that it requires a miracle to work.
Comment for the algorithm.
Faith is belief in anything without good evidence to support it. Stories about gods, miracles, demons and angels are just stories that people read and believe and teach to their children.
I prefer the scientific method for accuracy and reliability before I put my faith in it.
What happened at the battle of Waterloo? What is love? Some questions aren't appropriate for the scientific method
I truly believe in the fruit of understanding the word of God and finding the factual amongst the supernatural, but it was surprising to hear how little was discussed on the work of the Holy Spirit in salvation or coming to faith. It is only by faith that we are saved. Not through cracking open the facts about the origins of creation of the universe. I'm sure the guests of this episode would probably not refute this, but the fact that the work of the Holy Spirit was omitted in their stories of coming to faith, shows that maybe, we actually believe, in some way, that we give ourselves more credit in our coming to Jesus. As though we met the Lord halfway. There was nothing in Christ that we would desire him. It is the work of the Holy Spirit that brings us to a place of repentance from dead works and faith towards God. I am slowly not enjoying Alisha's content because because I see a lack of balanced between the word and the Spirit.
Why can’t you address what’s going on in the world ever???
You can go to other channels for that, there are plenty.
She is, just in a different manner. Her speciality is deconstruction. There are many channels that speak on other current events. What specifically are you looking for ?
she focuses on what is going on in the world of culture and Christianity
William Lane Craig is good with philosophy and defending theism over atheism, but don’t look to him for theology.
If someone says that he is God he is insane. If someone says that a dead person came back to life he is a liar. This is common sense. Make Christianity make sense.
Unless he is God and it it happened. The evidence is Jesus is God, and he is risen.
@@dentonhahn2907 I have evidence too. First of all I'm telling that I'm God. Secondly I have a group of 10 followers who will tell you that I have walked on water, fed the multitudes and also I died and three days later dug myself out of my grave and now I'm alive again. Besides that my followers will tell you that I was born in Bethlehem. If you worship me you will go to eternal paradise however if you refuse to worship me you will go to eternal hell. Will you worship me?
@@JacobStein1960 when you forgive sin and stop storms, heal the sick, die and rise again, oh and your followers must be tortured and killed for what they saw you do. Not ten but over five hundred who seen you after you have been beaten nailed to a cross and a spears ran in your side, after you have lived a morally perfect life, fulfilled all the prophecies of the bible, I promise I will listen very carefully to everything you say. So get started.
@@dentonhahn2907 There isn't much evidence about how the authors of the gospels died. That's not in the Bible. And you don't have testimony from 500 hundred people. Just four people. So I have my ten followers over here who will swear that I did all those things. Who are these followers? Pretty average people. A drug dealer, A prostitute. A fisherman. No one famous or important. Just 10 random people that I picked up off the street however they will swear to you that I did all those things. Worship me or you are eternally damned.
@@JacobStein1960 absolutely it is Paul says don't take my word go talk to the people who are still alive who have seen the risen Lord, over 500 who are still around. Really? Who at that time or any other is more famous than Christ? Why would I believe someone because they are famous? Generally people of fame are much less trustworthy that the average man on the street, yes and the way their lives changed dramatically is evidence something changed their minds and hearts. Come on now, the evidence is Christ is risen, the fact that the tomb is named anyone could check it out, the fact that no one contemporary refuted the claim, and there are other historical sources that speak of Jesus Christ.
Alisa, I don’t understand why you have to put a disclaimer on the fact that you’re not making money on things. Are there really people who love your channel accuse you of doing things just for the money. As for me, you do not have to defend yourself. God bless you.
Michael gets religion mostly from his wife. His Christian belief conditions its own supposed evidence for God.
Could be, religion is walking out a faith, like you, you are religious on commenting on this channel . Christianity is a relationship.
Why not put your documentary on UA-cam for free? Oh yeah, like Alisa and other apologists book of the month club, you are doing this for profit. Take away the profit motive and your arguments for Christianity don't look so good, don't they?
Why spend time and effort arguing against something you don't believe exists? I think you do believe, and are just waiting for someone to convince you that you do. I pray that you will see the Light, and realize what you know in your heart to be true.
