Is belief in the existence of a Creator rational?
Welcome to the IJK Podcast! In this episode, I’m joined by Lukas Ruegger, the Director of Steiger Middle East—a global mission focused on connecting with young people in today’s globalized culture.
Lukas has an impressive academic background in Philosophy and Theology, along with an M.A. in Christian Apologetics from Biola University. He is also the creator of the YouTube channel Deflate, where he thoughtfully addresses intellectual objections to Theism and Christianity, engaging with leading thinkers like philosopher William Lane Craig and skeptic Alex O’Connor.
Together, we explore one of life’s most profound questions: Is it rational to believe in the existence of a Creator? Lukas shares his insights on this timeless topic, delving into the intersection of faith, reason and truth.
During this episode, Lukas and IJK explore many deep subjects such as:
-The Kalam cosmological argument
-The fine-tuning argument
-The Big Bang and its theological implications
-The hiddenness of God
-The problem of Evil
-Science vs. Faith...and many more!
