Does God exist or not? How can we know? Can Christians and skeptics discuss this issue in a friendly way? In November 2025, a panel discussion was held at the annual meeting of the American Academy of Religion for an upcoming new book entitled "Debating God's Existence: Believers and Skeptics in Friendly Conversation." The book was based on a debate about God's existence between Dan Barker and Adam Lloyd Johnson and included chapters by contributors expanding on and critiquing the arguments presented. This panel featured the book's editor and several of its contributors discussing their contributions: Andrew Drinkard, Robert Koons, Daniel Linford, Benjamin Watkins, Paul Copan, Adam Lloyd Johnson, and Dan Barker. Other contributors to the book, who were not able to be at this panel discussion, include David Baggett, Robin Collins, David Enoch, Joe Folley, Philip Goff, Alex Malpass, Dolores G. Morris, Joshua Rasmussen, and Joe Schmid.

In Acts 17:16-34, Paul addresses Greek Philosophers, Epicureans and Stoics, on Mars Hill in Athens. Paul's exchange with these ancient Greek philosophers shows that, while Paul didn't subscribe to their philosophies, neither did he reject philosophy altogether. Instead, in the spirit of evangelism, Paul engaged with their ideas and philosophies to point them to Christ. Adam shows how we can learn from this interaction by Paul.

Adam addresses an argument against God's existence that is gaining popularity: the argument from divine hiddenness. Why does God seem to "hide" from us? If God really wants to have a relationship with us, then why doesn't He reveal Himself to us more? Where does God seem to be absent when I need Him? Does this mean He doesn't actually exist?

Is it biblical for Christians to be involved in politics? Should Christians avoid politics at all costs because it corrupts the church and diminishes the gospel? Should Christians work hard to take over and run the government? Or is the proper engagement somewhere in the middle? Does the Bible have any answers with regard to Christians' relationship to politics? Adam discusses the answers to these questions to help disentangle this thorny issue in this video.

In this episode, Adam discusses how recent years have shown a comeback for Christianity in the field of philosophy and how this has affected the world today. This shift can be seen through the rising prominence of influential Christian philosophers from the latter half of the twentieth century such as Alvin Plantinga, Alasdair MacIntyre, John Hare, Robert Merrihew Adams, and others.

Art is more than just pretty paintings and catchy music. Art is often used as a medium for the communication of ideas about life, meaning, and morality. Artists are often influenced by movements in philosophy that advance various ideas. There have been three main movements in the history of philosophy: the premodern, modern, and postmodern eras. Art movements have also tracked with these philosophical movements, echoing their ideas and communicating their thoughts. In this video, Adam explores this history of philosophy influencing art, and a special guest, artist Jeremy Goodding (‪@jeremygoodding268‬) joins to discuss his work.To see more about Jeremy Goodding and his work, see here: https://jeremygoodding.com/

In this episode of the podcast, Adam discusses a chapter that he contributed to a recent book that is going to be published by Oxford University Press about the moral argument. Adam's chapter covers his Divine Love Theory and explains how it is very useful to incorporate the Trinity into the moral argument. Adam gives four reasons why he includes the Trinity when he argues for God based on morality.

In this episode, Adam interviews Clark Moghadam, a student at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln who is studying biology and philosophy. Clark is helping out at Convincing Proof this summer and loves studying topics in the fields of theology, history, and philosophy.
