Unapologetic with Mike Eppel

The Law is a Great Teacher

Mike discusses how the law teaches the citizens of society that certain behaviors are good and others are bad. If the law begins to teach people that harmful behaviors, like abortion and same sex behavior, are good, then one can reasonably expect society to perceive them as beneficial. 

Is Homosexual Behavior Healthy?

Mike wraps up the discussion on how natural marriage is the foundation of civilization and introduces point #2 of the case for biblical sexuality: homosexual behavior is harmful. Although the culture would have you believe that homosexuality is normal, beneficial, and healthy, the facts seem to say otherwise. 

The Six Point Case for Biblical Sexuality

Mike lays down a foundation for why biblical sexuality is the only form of sexuality that should be promoted within the culture, be it by the government, the church, or any other institution.

The Greatness of God

Mike preaches on the subject of God’s greatness, discussing two of God’s attributes that display this greatness: His spiritual nature and His infinite nature. 

Did Jesus Really Die?

Mike wraps up his case for the resurrection of Jesus series by discussing some more obscure challenges to the resurrection, such as the idea that Jesus never died and the claim that Jesus' appearance to the disciples is similar to Elvis sightings.

A Voice in the Wilderness

Mike presents a sermon on John 1:19-28, discussing the nature of John the Baptist's ministry as the "voice of one crying in the wilderness, prepare the way of the Lord." John's ministry was one of repentance, of turning the hearts of fallen humanity back to God, and this ministry continues to be relevant for those seeking God's forgiveness today. 

Does God Exist?

Although the strong evidence for the supernatural resurrection of Jesus implies the existence of God, there are also powerful arguments for God’s existence outside of the evidence for the resurrection. In a culture that often dismisses God, the resurrection, and Christianity in general as mere superstition, such arguments suggest that the reality of God has a scientific basis that is independent of human imagination. If there are objective reasons to believe in God, then the possibility of Jesus’ resurrection suddenly becomes more likely.   

Is Jesus God?

Traditional Christianity asserts that Jesus is God as the second person of the Trinity, but some liberal scholars suggest that Jesus never understood Himself to be divine. Mike examines the historical and literary context around key Bible verses that speak to Jesus' identity to determine who Jesus thought Himself to be. 

Does Jesus Have a Body?

Mike discusses the theory that Jesus' resurrection was not a bodily resurrection, but was rather a "spiritual," non-physical, or even metaphorical resurrection, and offers several reasons as to why this theory falls short of the evidence. 

Does Science Disprove God (part 2)

Mike continues the discussion on the topic of philosophical naturalism, demonstrating the flaws of several other arguments that naturalists use to challenge the miraculous resurrection of Jesus.
