Financial Advisor Steve Stack: Candid Convo Concerning Christmas, Cash, & Christ
Is Adam Coleman becoming a prosperity preacher?!!!! Nah, fam… I will say this though. The biblical worldview has much more to offer than high-minded theological truths and philosophy. One of the ways we can help people to see the value of the biblical worldview is highlighting how it can be applied to everyday life. The Bible has plenty to say about how to manage finances in a healthy way. Unfortunately, what the Bible really says about money has often been overshadowed by shady individuals who mishandle and/or misrepresent the scriptures so they can exploit people. One of the things we talk about in this interview with my dude Steve Stack is reclaiming a healthy view of finances, giving, saving, and investing from a biblical perspective. 🔽BLOG SITE🔽 www.truidapologetics.com 🔽SUPPORT OUR MINISTRY🔽 patreon.com/adamcoleman 🔽BUY TRU-ID APOLOGETICS GEAR🔽 🔽PODCAST ARCHIVES🔽 Www.truidpodcast.com (Also on Itunes and other podcast outlets) 🔽SOCIAL MEDIA🔽 Facebook: realadamcoleman Twitter: @scottlane7 Instagram: Truid_Podcast For Booking: [email protected] For Questions & Feedback: [email protected]

What to the Slave is the 4th of July? (Insights from Frederick Douglas)

What to the Slave is the 4th of July? (Insights from Frederick Douglas)
On July 5, 1852, Frederick Douglas presented what is perhaps his most famous speech, which is generally titled, "What to the Slave is the 4th of July?". At the Corinthian Hall, in Rochester New York, Douglass made this speech to the Rochester Ladies' Anti-Slavery Society. Douglass is by far my favorite figure of African American history. He had a brilliant mind that certainly shined through in his writings and accomplishments as an abolitionist. In this episode, we take a look at sections of "What to the Slave is the 4th of July?" and explore what many African Americans experience as a tension between that which can be appreciated about America/American history and grappling with harsh moral realities of America/American history. I'll attempt to draw insights from Frederick Douglas and point out how this issue may intersect with how we go about doing so called "urban" apologetics. I'm somewhat shooting from the hip in this episode. I haven't got it all completely worked out in my thinking yet and would welcome feedback from y'all out there. Enjoy...

No Ceilings: Why Do Bad Things Happen to Good People? Part 3
Waddup Tru-ID Familia! A while back I taught a series at No Ceilings Bible Study on the subject of the “Problem of Evil”. For those who have been following the Tru-ID Podcast, you'll recall that I posted the first two Bible study sessions and mentioned that there would be a third. Welp, as I was digging through some old files on my computer I realized I hadn't posted the third segment of that series. So let's get that corrected right now shall we? In the previous two sessions we covered basics of what the “problem of evil” is and responses to the “Logical Version of the Problem of Evil”. In this next episode we will tackle the “Inductive/Evidential version of the Problem of Evil (or Suffering)”. Tune in!

Pro-Life Advocate Scott Klusendorf
For some time I've been intending to do an episode on the issue of abortion. It's an issue I've been very vocal about in the past and have recently felt compelled to re-engage in the public square. Just a few weeks ago the national conversation about abortion sharply intensified when New York passed a bill which significantly weakened the regulations related to elective abortions particularly in regard to late term abortions. When a similar bill was proposed in my home state of Virginia, I found myself uncomfortable with being on the sidelines of this and other social issues. As a first step in getting more involved I decided to reach out to someone that I believe could speak to this subject in a way that my listeners would greatly benefit from. Today's guest, Scott Klusendorf, is a nationally recognized pro-life advocate and president of the Life Training Institute. He has lectured on and debated the issue of abortion on over 80 colleges and universities, regularly conducted pro-life advocacy trainings and is the author of "The Case for Life". Yours truly caught up with Scott Klusendorf to talk about the following: What is the current state of the abortion debate in America and in the church? Do I have to become a Trump supporter or Republican to be on the right side of the abortion question? How to make a 3 step argument for the pro-life position. You don’t wanna miss this one!!! P.S.: Ironically, this show is about kids and it just so happened that during the recording my 2 year old wandered into my studio area so you briefly hear him in the background smh.

Waddup y'all! On the last show I took a slight detour in our broader discussion on Social Justice to examine how the moral frameworks of the worldviews that are gaining traction in the black community and jockeying for position against Christianity. "Black" Atheism was the focus of our last episode but now we'll take a look at other notable conscious community contenders. In this episode I will offer basic arguments/ critiques of the moral frameworks of Hebrew Israelite theology, Islam, Moorish Science, and Kemetic Science. As I’ve suggested about atheism, these other spiritual systems cannot provide as solid a foundation for ethics and social justice as we find in the Christian worldview.

This is the first of 2 episodes that I'll be releasing this week so stay tuned as we will shift from critiquing atheism to looking at the moral framework of Hebrew Israelism, Islam, Moorish Science, and Kemetic Science.

In this episode we continue our series on social justice. One of the main issues I hoped to deal with in this series is to dispel the Conscious Community myth that Christianity has nothing to offer the black community in terms of providing a basis for grappling with suffering and specific moral realities of the "black experience" here in the West as well. In response to this erroneous notion about the biblical worldview I am working my way through a number of "building blocks" to biblical morality which debunk this idea. Tune in to this episode in which we explore the first and most important of our building blocks. KEY CONCEPTS Breaking down the connection between social justice and moral claims The nature of God as the foundation for morality Does the biblical worldview have what it takes to back up moral claims?

Social Justice #2: "Mac"Friday
Waddup my peoples! What is the connection between Pastor John Macarthur and Conscious Community figure Brother Polight? You definitely want to tune in for our latest episode of the Tru-ID Podcast and find out. I've often received questions as to where I stand on certain social issues and race relations in our society. Since there is so much discussion going on about social justice nowadays I thought this would be a good time to give my take on it from an apologetics standpoint. In this episode, our series on social justice gets a little more spicy than usual. After listening to John Macarthur's series of sermons on Social Justice and the gospel, I decided to play a few clips from Macarthur and also a clip from well known Conscious Community figure Brother Polight as I attempt to shed light on how the conflict within the church related to urban apologetics, evangelism, and social justice. Key Points: Tackling statements made by John Macarthur about social justice and the gospel. Should Christians "just preach the gospel"? Is Brother Polight right about Christianity holding the black community back? Does Christianity make black people cowards? What are some specific examples of how misrepresentations of the biblical worldview has contributed to there being barriers to the gospel in the black community?

The State of Urban Apologetics

The State of Urban Apologetics
Recently I sat down with Damon Richardson of Urban Logia Ministries, Pastor Isaiah Robertson, and Pastor Jason Laplanche on Dacebook Live for a discussion about “The State of Urban Apologetics”. The budding “urban” apologetics community is something I care a great deal about and I’m sure the same could be said about Damon Richardson and Isaiah Robertson. I’m fortunate to call these brothers my friends and over the last several months we have all been making similar observations about what is going on in the urban apologetics community. Some of what we are seeing has been very concerning, not only for the 3 of us. Over the last several months there have been rashes of intense and at times antagonistic exchanges between urban apologists. As I’ve been keeping track of things in our social media community and reaching out to individuals involved with these skirmishes between apologists, it seems to me that the pulse of the community leans toward putting some things in place to better mediate and even prevent these sorts of internal conflicts that can potentially create fractures in the community. In this conversation with Damon Richardson and Isaiah Robertson we discuss what it is that we’re seeing and propose solutions which we hope to develop amongst the Urban Apologetics community such that resolutions achieve some degree of community wide acceptance. KEY TOPICS: 1. What is the current state of urban apologetics? 2. What steps can be taken to resolve issues within the community? 3. Proposing a statement of faith for urban apologists. 4. Proposing a standard of conduct and boundaries for public debate/dialogue amongst urban apologists.

Author/Apologist: Tyran Laws
Over the last few years, we've seen an increasing awareness of the need for "urban" apologetics. As a result, there has been a community forming of individuals who are equipping themselves and others to address the questions about and objections to Christianity that have been gaining ground in the African-American community as well as among people of African descent in the broader Western World. One of the things that many of us in this community see a need for is literature addressing these needs. We want books. Author/Apologist Tyran Laws (and Rahsaan Armand) is filling that need with his book entitled, "The Round Table: A Christian's Conversation with Marginal Beliefs Affecting the Black Church Experience". You definitely want to listen to this episode as we address the following topics. KEY POINTS: What is the church doing about the violence in Chicago? How to engage in conversation with people from the Conscious Community. What are the dangers of "Word of Faith" theology? Why is theology important in apologetics?
