Vishal Mangalwadi is a world-renowned Christian philosopher and author of over 20 books, including “This Book Changed Everything: The Bible’s Amazing Impact on Our World.” In this episode, Vishal shares his testimony of coming to faith in Jesus after an earnest search for absolute truth in both religion and philosophy.

In this search for truth, Vishal came to the realization that modern philosophical skepticism in the West had only reached what Siddhārtha Gautama (The Buddha) had taught more than 2,000 years earlier.

In this episode, Vishal traces the history of skeptical thought from east to west from influential individuals like Buddha, David Hume, and even Kurt Cobain. Vishal demonstrates how genuine hope, purpose, and progress can only come to a person or nation that remains rooted in truth.

Vishal shows us where fatalist and relativistic thought lead to and why the West will never see lasting fruit outside of the absolute truth that mankind was created in God's image, lost that image by sin, and can only regain it through a real relationship with the Creator, Jesus Christ.

Can we know truth? Can we trust the Bible? These are questions we find answers to in this episode of The Postscript.

In this episode, Dean of LFBI Dr. Alan Shelby sits down to discuss the problems with the writings of Dr. Bart. D. Ehrman, biblical scholar and atheist. We share Ehrman’s faith story and how he came to recant his Christianity. We then address his approach to textual and form criticism and how he presses assumptions on the scriptural text. We analyze Ehrman’s book “Jesus: Apocalyptic Prophet,” and Alan shares with us a biblical model for finding truth.
