In this video, I’m going to explain what I call the virtues of Christian scholarship. I’ll go through the areas and ideas I found in the Bible that helped me with my own research.

![How can God create time before time?
#theism #christianity #god #philosophy
In this video, Ill explain why I used to think the idea of God was incoherent because it presupposed the existence of time. I had mistakenly thought creation or causation required time.

![Christian Arguments For and Against Gay Marriage
#christian #apologetics #debate
In this video, Ill lay out the Christian arguments for and against Gay marriage. Unfortunately this debate is often accompanied by name calling and other unhelpful rhetoric that generates more heat than light. My goal here is not to try and convince you one side is correct, but rather to lay out the arguments on each side.
