The Biblical Roots Podcast
This is a Bible-based, Christ-focused theology and apologetics podcast hosted by Professor R. L. Solberg. We're here to help defend true, biblical Christianity from false theologies on all sides, from the pseudo-spiritualism of Progressive Christianity to the suffocating legalism of Torah-observant Christianity.
On this podcast we talk theology and apologetics, test the claims of teachers of questionable theology, and offer a range of Bible teachings, including verse-by-verse Bible studies.
The mission of Defending the Biblical Roots of Christianity is to promote biblical literacy (Prov. 7:2), systematically break down teachings that challenge the sufficiency of Christ (2 Cor. 10:5), and lift high the beautiful Gospel of Jesus. Our goal is to contribute to the intellectual and theological aspects of making disciples of all nations (Matt. 28:19–20) and promote freedom from spiritual bondage (Gal. 5:1) while emphasizing unity in the body of Christ (John 13:35).

Interview: Alisa Childers on Deconstructing Christianity
There is a troubling trend called "deconstruction" infiltrating our churches and affecting friends, family, and spouses. It's why we've seen well-known musicians and pastors walk away from the faith in the past few years. It has disrupted, dismantled, and destroyed the faith of many. Our guest is Alisa Childers, who co-authored a book called The Deconstruction of Christianity: What It Is, Why It’s Destructive, and How to Respond with Tim Barnett of Stand to Reason. Their book—and our conversation in this episode—is intended to help you not only understand what’s happening but also stand your ground and respond with clarity and confidence.
