The AC Podcast

This week, Apologetics Canada dives back into its series, Denominations in Conversation. Ben sits down with Irish Catholic theologian, Dr. David Deane, Professor of Theology at Newman Theological College in Edmonton, AB, as they discuss some challenging and uncomfortable questions: What does it mean to be part of the “one true Church”? How do Roman Catholics understand the Protestant Reformation? And is it possible to find unity across the divide?
Join us as we explore the role of tradition, and how we might faithfully engage across denominational lines.

Since its release, The Passion of the Christ has been met with shock, awe, confession, and controversy. 21 years later, does Mel Gibson's interpretation still stand as a chilling depiction of the crucifixion of Christ? Join Troy, Ben and Steve as they revisit the film’s raw intensity and lasting impact. From its brutal realism to the deeper questions it raises about suffering, justice, and grace, this conversation goes beyond the screen and into the heart of the cross.

Christians who read the Bible regularly are no strangers to passages that make them pause and scratch their heads. Who are the Nephilim? Who are the “sons of God”? What does it mean that Jesus “went and proclaimed to the spirits in prison”? Many interpretations have been offered, but many of them still leave us bewildered. Steve sat down with Dr. Joel Muddamalle, a theologian and self-described “Bible nerd” to help us understand how the Divine Council view brings these biblical puzzle pieces together into a coherent picture. What does “elohim” mean? Does this view commit us to polytheism? Join us in this week’s edition of the AC Podcast as we address these questions and more.

Understand what's at stake and how you can stand for truth in our changing nation.

Are spiritual attacks and oppression real? Where does apologetics fit into the fight? Andy and Steve sat down to address a question submitted by a listener of the AC Podcast. They discuss how apologetics can help ground believers in truth, resist shallow extremes about spiritual warfare, and think carefully about the spiritual dimension of reality. Along the way, they highlight the importance of humility, prayer, Scripture, confession, accountability, and practical boundaries. We need more than good arguments. We need faithful obedience.
