Real Seekers

Fan of the Podcast, Mark B. from the UK, requested I bring on Pro-Shroud journalist, William West, who has written three books on the Shroud and has argued that the Shroud presents us with evidence that fit together like pieces of a puzzle; culminating in proving the miraculous Resurrection of Jesus!RSM Blog = https://realseekerministries.wordpress.com/2025/12/19/the-shroud-puzzle-solved-w-william-west/

Over a year ago, I was invited to come on Nathan Ormond's (Digital Gnosis) channel to speak on the Shroud of Turin and at some point Bob Rucker and Tom McAvoy's research came up and I felt I didn't do the best job defending their great work.Hence, I figured, why not schedule a Round 2 and have Bob and Tom engage directly with Nathan and James themselves to defend their own work.Enjoy and Merry Christmas to all :)

Pro-Shroud historian, Jack Markwardt, returns to the Shroud Wars to provide a meta-analysis of some of the troubling recent developments happening in Shroud scholarship. He has found that several people are claiming to be Shroud experts on YouTube and in popular level presentations of the Shroud of Turin, but they consistently misstate the facts, lack depth of knowledge and/or fail to support primary research on the Shroud and thus unintentionally damage the reputation of proper Shroud studies as it has been known for the past 40-50 years.RSM Blog = https://realseekerministries.wordpress.com/2025/12/12/troubling-trends-of-shroud-scholarship-w-jack-markwardt/

The Atheist YouTubers, Paulogia and the Rabyd Atheist, have recently been on an unrelenting persecution campaign against Dr. Gary Habermas; desperate to undermine his scholarly research supporting the Resurrection in any way they possibly can! However, with Paulogia's most recent propaganda video, it has come to my attention that it is not only the Atheists and skeptics who find fault with Gary, it seems that even some fellow Christian apologists and researchers have likewise taken issue with Gary's most recent Volume 3 of his Magnum Opus.Given, that I have a great deal of respect for many of these Christians and, in some cases, I am proud to say that I'm friends with them personally, I felt I owed it to Gary and to them, to switch the focus of my "Round 4" response (as Paulogia calls it) from exposing the hypocrisy of the Atheists and skeptics on this front, to instead sincerely try my best to resolve the objections raised by these fellow Christian brothers and sisters. When faced with a trilemma of explanations whereby either Gary is a liar, lunatic or leader, I think I demonstrate rather conclusively that Gary is neither a liar nor a lunatic and thus he is a true leader in the Christian church! I think such a demonstration is clear to all once one applies the principle of charity to all sides involved. Thus, I truly believe we can all remain united as the one true body of Christ in our efforts to withstand the attacks of the devil through our commitment to truth, unity and charity to one another.RSM Blog (w/ my Slides) = https://realseekerministries.wordpress.com/2025/12/07/defending-gary-habermas-answering-christian-objections/

Phil Bair invited me on his show to discuss several topics in his new book, Deconstructing Junk Theology. We go over, Faith vs. doubts, YEC vs. OEC, Genesis 1-11 as the Mytho-history genre, and the role of women. Phil and I have some disagreements, so look out for an interesting discussion.RSM Blog = https://realseekerministries.wordpress.com/2025/12/05/phil-bair-his-new-book-deconstructing-junk-theology/
