The Freethinking Podcasts

Tim Stratton, Scott Olson, Josh Klein

Booking Overview

This is a Christian apologetics and theology show combining host-led commentary with external interviews featuring Christian philosophers, theologians, authors, public debaters, and occasionally notable Christian athletes. Agencies could credibly pitch apologetics scholars, faith-and-culture experts, authors, debaters, and Christian athletes with substantive testimony; booking difficulty is medium because the show accepts niche experts and rising public figures but expects strong subject-matter or faith credentials.

Jacob Vazquez of  @TruthfulHope  joins Dr. Tim Stratton and Josh Klein to discuss his new book, Sacred or Secular: The Pro-Life Case for Grounding Human Value in the Image of God.
