Pastor Scott and Layman Matt start a discussion on objections to Christianity. Originally, the episode was planned to have 4 objections. After doing the research, it was decided to only tackle 2 of the objections this episode, then the next 2 on the following episode. However, discussing the Bible took longer than expect. So, this episode will only deal with some objections to the Bible.
