God Against gods

My Podcast Interview on Knowing God through Imagination & Apologetics

Posted on by admin

Are you creative and imaginative and wonder how it has to do with the Bible? Do you know what apologetics is and why it’s important?

I talk to Heidi Mortenson on Strong Tower Mental Health Podcast about my personal testimony as a believer in Jesus Christ, the importance of understanding apologetics as well as my journey into being a professional writer and filmmaker.

You will be pulled into a deeper part of Christianity than you ever have before using your heart, mind and will.

We can know God with our head, but when we use both the right and left side of our brain, our faith grows more than we could ever imagine.

Podcast: The Gospel Creates Order Out of Chaos. A Positive Vision of Christian Faith in Culture

Posted on by admin

I was on this podcast, Shekinah Publishing.

It was a great time. In Part One I gave my personal testimony of my faith in Hollywood and writing novels with an eye toward subverting the culture with positive Christian faith.

Here is Part One

In part two, I talk about having a positive Christian vision for culture rather than the defeatist approach.

So many Christians are overcome by the vast evil in this world, and it is really there.

But how do you live the Bible truth that “Greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world”?

Here is Part Two

Check them out. These are real heartfelt discussions.

Astral Prophecy in the Bible is NOT Astrology. See Why on this Podcast

Posted on by admin

I was on another great Iron and Myth Podcast about Christmas, but more than that, about astral prophecy.

Author and pastor Doug Van Dorn, bestselling author and award-winning screenwriter Brian Godawa, and Director of the Institute of Biblical Anthropology Dr. Judd Burton discuss the signs in the heavens that pointed to the birth of Jesus, the ways in which the powers and principalities—the gods of the pagan world—have tried to appropriate what was, in actual, historical fact, a Christian celebration from the beginning, and why—biblically—it doesn’t matter.

Iron & Myth Podcast: Leviathan, Behemoth, the Sea and Chaos

Posted on by admin

I was on the Iron and Myth podcast again. This one is going to fascinate you.

IS CHAOS a symbol of disorder, or is it, as certain passages in the Bible suggest, an entity?

Back this month for another in our Iron and Myth series are Brian Godawa (www.godawa.com), author of Leviathan and Behemoth, Pastor Doug Van Dorn (www.douglasvandorn.com), author of Giants: Sons of the Gods, and Dr. Judd Burton (www.burtonbeyond.com), author of Interview with the Giant: Ethnohistorical Notes on the Nephilim.

We discuss the various ways chaos is described in the Bible (Leviathan, Rahab, a multi-headed sea dragon, and the sea itself), the apparent struggle to subdue chaos in scripture and in pagan cultures of the ancient world, and the disturbing connection between chaos and the modern UFO phenomenon.

Is Leviathan in the Bible a dinosaur? A whale? A sea monster? NO! He is the many-headed sea dragon of chaos. God used Leviathan as a very important covenantal symbol.

God Against the gods: What C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien Understood About Myth

Posted on by admin

This is a video I made to help explain to Christians the power of myth in storytelling that they often miss out on because of their fear of that word, “myth” as meaning a false tale. It does not. CS Lewis and JRR Tolkien understood this. So should we. Or we miss out on all God has for us with our imagination. Watch the video to find out.
