Today, we re-broadcast an episode from July 2015 with Dr. Phil Fernandes, President of the Institute of Biblical Defense, as we discussed attacks on the Historical Jesus and how we can think through these objections objectively and historically to see that we can trust that the Jesus of the Bible is exactly Who He claimed to be. 

Dr. Fernandes earned the following degrees: a Ph.D. in philosophy of religion from Greenwich University, a Master of Arts in Religion from Liberty University, and a Bachelor of Theology from Columbia Evangelical Seminary. He has publicly debated some of America’s leading atheists. He has lectured and debated in defense of the Christian worldview at some of America’s leading universities: Princeton, University of Washington, Oregon State University, and the University of North Carolina. 

Dr. Fernandes is the author of several books: The God Who Sits Enthroned: Evidence for God’s Existence; No Other Gods: A Defense of Biblical Christianity; Contend Earnestly for the Faith; Hijacking the Historical Jesus and more.

He is also the pastor of Trinity Bible Fellowship in Silverdale, Washington, and teaches philosophy, world religions, theology, and apologetic's for CrossPoint Academy and the Imago Dei Institute (formerly Cascade Bible College).
