Logic of God
We are a Christian podcast dedicated to investigating the compelling reasons and logical foundations that support belief in a Creator. Throughout our episodes, we delve deep into a variety of topics, engaging in thoughtful and respectful dialogues with theologians, scientists, philosophers, and believers from diverse backgrounds.
One of our key focuses is exploring the fascinating interplay between faith and science. We discuss the intricacies of creation from both a Biblical and a scientific perspective, illuminating how the complexities of the universe point towards an intelligent designer. From the finely-tuned laws of physics to the miraculous intricacies of cellular biology, we examine the compelling scientific evidence that invites us to acknowledge a Creator.
In addition, we also scrutinize philosophical and moral arguments for the existence of God. Through examining human experiences of morality, consciousness, beauty, and the profound longing for purpose and meaning, we argue for a spiritual dimension to life that can only be fulfilled by belief in a Creator.
Moreover, we delve into historical and textual evidences, discussing the reliability and authenticity of the Bible, its prophecies, and its account of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. We engage with archeological findings and scholarly research that lend credibility to the Biblical narratives and doctrines.
We do not shy away from tough questions and skeptic's challenges. We strive to address doubts, misconceptions, and controversies surrounding Christianity, providing clear, thoughtful, and Biblically grounded responses. We firmly believe that faith does not require us to abandon reason, but rather, true faith is consistent with and indeed invites rigorous intellectual exploration.
Our ultimate aim is to facilitate a deeper understanding of why belief in a Creator is not only reasonable and logical, but also deeply fulfilling and transformative. We are passionate about helping our listeners appreciate the beauty, consistency, and profundity of the Christian worldview, encouraging them to explore and deepen their own faith journeys.

The Coming of Shiloh (Genesis 49 - Part 1)
In this episode, we begin Part 1 of our Genesis 49 deep dive, where Jacob gathers his sons and delivers a final “blessing” that reads more like prophetic poetry and courtroom verdict than sentimental goodbye. We talk about why this chapter’s structure shifts so sharply from narrative to song, what that means for interpretation, and why the text’s movement between first, second, and third person signals that Jacob is speaking beyond the men in the room to the future tribes of Israel.
We walk through the opening section of the poem and the first major portraits: Reuben’s forfeited preeminence, Simeon and Levi’s violence and scattering, and Judah’s elevation to rulership and kingship imagery. From there we slow down at the most contested line in the chapter: “until Shiloh comes.” We trace why the word is so disputed, why translators struggle, why Jewish and Christian interpreters still treat it as messianic, and how reading it as “the one to whom it belongs” or “peace bringer” changes the entire flow of the passage.
We close this first half by following the imagery that comes after Shiloh, especially the vine, the garments, and the wine language, and why Christians and Jewish tradition diverge sharply in interpretation right here. This is Genesis 49 at street level, poetic, prophetic, and loaded with covenantal weight, with the baton passing toward what the text seems determined to announce: Israel’s future is moving toward a king.
