Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey

Today we're joined by evolutionary biologist Dr. Colin Wright to discuss the biological realities of sex. We start off with a basic definition of what sex is and why you can't teach biology without teaching the fundamental truth of X and Y chromosomes. We explain how using "intersex" as evidence of transgenderism doesn't make sense when one has nothing to do with the other and "intersex" is an extreme biological outlier rather than a supposed "identity." We also touch on sex when it comes to sports and how we define and accept "fairness" when it comes to athletic competitions. At the end of the episode, Allie's dad, Ron Simmons, joins for a quick news update. --- Timecodes: (01:05) Academic biology (09:43) Can you teach biology without teaching X and Y chromosomes?

Today we’re joined again by Jeremiah Roberts and Andrew Soncrant, hosts of the podcast "Cultish," for part two of our discussion on the Hebrew Roots Movement. We start off with some parallels to the Reformation but with the clear distinction that our authority is not Martin Luther, it's Scripture. We talk about how culture has seeped into the church in negative ways and how we tend to overcorrect and find opposite solutions that still may not be biblical. We explain how we shouldn't be reactionary to culture but know that culture should grow from the church and that God is gracious to see our overcorrections and bring us back.

Today we’re joined again by Jeremiah Roberts and Andrew Soncrant, hosts of the podcast "Cultish," this time to discuss the Hebrew Roots Movement, which places a strong emphasis on Hebrew traditions and the law of Moses. We start off with some fundamentals of the Hebrew Roots Movement and comparisons to Armstrongism. How do they view the feasts and sabbath, and for followers of the HRM, is salvation tied up in keeping those feasts/law? We explain how when legalism becomes your identity, the rest of our faith breaks down and how we need to be careful with man-made traditions. Stay tuned for part two tomorrow!

Today we're joined by Dr. George Barna, author and one of the country's leading faith and culture researchers, on the state of the Millennial generation and the church. We answer the big question: How do we help Millennials thrive when they have such unique challenges? Millennials are the largest generation ever, and some startling stats reveal that many don't even believe there is absolute value to life or moral truths. We go over the biggest pain issues that Millennials deal with and how to address them and explain why maximum happiness can never be the goal of life, as many Millennials are led to believe. We also discuss the scary fact that only slightly more than one-third of pastors actually hold a biblical worldview and what we can do to turn this around.

Today, we’re joined by Ken Ham, founder and CEO of Answers in Genesis, for part two of our discussion on creation, evolution, and dinosaurs. We start off with the question of why people get so emotional about their belief in the age of the Earth and what evolutionists really believe about evolving species. We also explain how life is meaningless from an atheist's perspective and that things atheists claim matter, such as climate change, don't actually mean much from their perspective. We also talk about how non-Christians can never be consistent when talking about morality and how everyone believes in objective truth in some capacity, even if they claim they don't. Then, Ken calls for a reformation, which he says needs to go back to Genesis 1-11. --- Timecodes: (01:01) Age of the earth / “evolution” of species (08:00) Meaningless of life according to atheists (16:18) Hardened hearts (23:57) Calling for a reformation / Genesis 1-11 (30:56) Why do we take Genesis literally? --- Today's Sponsors: Good Ranchers — get $30 OFF your box today at GoodRanchers.com – make sure to use code 'ALLIE' when you subscribe.

Today we’re joined by Ken Ham, founder and CEO of Answers in Genesis, to discuss creation, evolution, and dinosaurs. We start off with an explanation of why Genesis 1-11 matters so much both in the biblical narrative and in our lives. Why is it so easy for people to dismiss Genesis 1-11 and not other parts of the Bible? Then we take a look at operational science vs. historical science when it comes to the dating of the Earth. How old really is the Earth, and how would we know scientifically? We dive into Darwinism and his dangerous belief system and then ask the question we know you’ve been waiting for: did dinosaurs really exist? --- Timecodes: (01:04) Creation accounts & literalism of the Bible (07:53) Why do people disregard Genesis 1-11 and not other parts of the bible?
