ASST - The Great Debate: Does God Exist?

This is the famous formal debate between Dr. Bahnsen and atheist promoter Dr. Gordon Stein held at the University of California (Irvine) in 1985. Hear how hard it is to deny God's existence and how intellectually rigorous the Christian position really is.

AST2 - Does God Exist? A Debate

This formal debate between Dr. Bahnsen and atheist lawyer (former ACLU) Edward Tabash at the University of California (Davis), is a great follow-up to the Bahnsen/Stein debate. Witness again how and atheist fails to wrestle with fundamental philosophical issues.

ASM4 – The Debate That Never Was

Dr. Bahnsen and atheist scholar Dr. Michael Martin were scheduled to debate the truth of Christian theism at Rhodes College in Memphis, TN. Two weeks before the scheduled debate, citing his opposition to having the debate recorded for public distribution, Dr. Martin declined to debate. Dr. Bahnsen traveled to Memphis anyway and presented a lecture on atheism, exposing the weakness of Dr. Martin's published attack on Christian theism.

ASM3 - Michael Martin Under the Microscope

Dr. Bahnsen takes apologetics beyond the "theory" of defending the faith and places one of the leading, philosophically competent antagonists to Christian theism "under the microscope" for detailed analysis and refutation. Dr. Michael Martin (philosophy professor at Boston University) has published two very hard-hitting books against the faith: "Atheism: A Philosophical Justification", and "The Case Against Christianity". In this 1994 SCCCS Summer Seminar Dr. Bahnsen walks students through a presuppositional analysis of Martin's methods, prejudices and ineffective attacks.
