A lot of people assume that "good" people go to heaven. But that's not what the Bible says. The Bible doesn't say "good" people go to heaven. So why do some many people, including many Christians, think the "ticket to heaven" is about being "good" in this life?
In this episode of the unBibled podcast, hosted by seminary student and Christian Apologist Liz Cobo, Liz walks with you through the question: Do "good" people go to heaven?
She'll help you understand why that's the wrong question and explain who the Bible says is in heaven.

Have you wondered if Jesus really appeared after Easter Sunday, or Resurrection Sunday? In this episode, Liz shares just some of the reasons why Christians believe Jesus really did appear bodily, after his crucifixion.
The Resurrection of Jesus is the linchpin to Christianity. If it didn't happen, then Christianity isn't true, because Jesus isn't who He said he was: God.
If you're interested in the evidence for the Resurrection, there are many excellent apologetics resources. In this short episode we didn't have time to dig deep into the evidence.

Johnston of ‪@ChristianThinkersSociety‬ :    • Did Jesus REALLY Rise from the Dead? TOP 4...

It's October and there are Halloween decorations everywhere you look. And a lot of those decorations are very very dark. As Christians we have to decide if we're going to participate in a celebration that is not about life, but death. While that might sound harsh and legalistic, it is important that we consider how everything we do in our daily lives aligns (or doesn't align) with our Christian worldview. 
So have you thought about Halloween? Have you decided not to celebrate it? Have you decided that certain parts of it are okay while others aren't? In this episode we're going to talk about what the Bible says about Halloween. Not surprisingly, the Bible doesn't actually say anything about Halloween... but it does have a LOT to say about what Halloween is about.
