Miracles & Atheists

Nick Snapp & Marcus Plating

The Miracles and Atheists podcast is where truth-seekers and storytellers unpack the TENSION between different world views of the supernatural. The project started as a 4-hour Live Stream on Facebook and is now transitioning to a bold, new podcast where skeptics and believers talk respectfully about faith and the supernatural. Miracles and Atheists is a forum for truth-seekers to discuss tough questions and objections to "supernatural" events and the Christian faith. We also love talking about

M&A031 - I’m Not He-Man, but I Have the Power

Miracles & Atheists ·

2021/07/27

What if God is not in control? Let’s not talk about being masters of the Universe, but masters of the Earth. “Dominion” is a controversial topic among certain denominations of the Christian church; some even call it heretical. So who has the power? Co-Hosts Nick Snapp and Marcus Plating get deep into this topic because of all the questions and comments they get from atheists about the problem of evil and why, to secular humanists, God doesn’t seem to be doing anything about it. It’s all related

Does the Bible really mean what it says, or is something else going on? Does “kill both man and woman, infant and nursing child” literally mean to kill them, or does it mean something else? How can one reconcile the literal interpretation of the Word of God with a conceptual interpretation? Is this a dangerous practice? We had an excellent dialog among very different world views, even highlighting significant differences between followers of Jesus. We talk about all these things and more between

For some it may sound spooky, wispy or maybe even ignorant, but countless people talk about it. What exactly does it mean to see in the Spirit, and is there something to it? Today you get to hear more from our friend, Pastor Perry Maison. Perry talked recently with atheist Boris Ekner on our last event, answering tough questions about God and whether He is really good. Perry is a Kingdom Strategist, and co-pastor of Shekinah Glory International in Durham, North Carolina. Perry says he’s doing

Atheists and Christian conversations are fascinating…especially when you combined skepticism with stories of the supernatural. This is what we’re giving you today Miracles & Atheists Community! (#theMAC) Our first guest representing the atheist position is Boris Ekner, a native of Sweden who currently lives with his wife in Guatemala and has been since 2010.

Laurie Ditto was taken supernaturally to both Heaven and Hell. She has such an interesting perspective on following Jesus that we brought her back for a special bonus episode of The Miracles & Atheists Podcast. She is the author of The Hell Conspiracy and Encountering Heaven, Laurie has had multiple visions of Heaven, and she’s had a horrifying eye-witness account of Hell. In this conversation we take it back to what the Bible calls, “The Fear of the LORD.” It’s a confusing topic that many

PODCASTING IN PUBLIC with Miracles & Atheists! We setup a tent, invested in some sweet outdoor audio equipment and drew an amazing crowd...not to mention, we had a solid guest lineup and a great turnout at Pullen Park in Raleigh. It was a night to remember, and marked a new milestone for how The Miracles & Atheists Podcast will be podcasting in the future. We’re super-excited, albeit, SUPERNATURALLY excited to introduce you to Laurie Ditto, author of The Hell Conspiracy and Encountering Heaven,

It’s PART 2 of our fascinating, supernatural convo with skeptic and fellow podcaster, Ashley Sanders, and demon-fighting, witch-doctor-battling follower of Jesus, Patrick Wandera. This time we pull out all the stops and talk about real-life mermaids, vampires and shape-shifters! If you want to know why the devil cares so much about you going to hell, you’ll want to hear the rest of our conversation.

Also back is our friend Ashley Sanders, representing the atheist world view, who personally has some burning questions for Pastor Patrick and the witch doctors he deals with.

The guy’s nose grew back? That’s just crazy talk...or is it? Most of us would like to believe God will make someone’s limb grow back, but it’s so far outside anything we’ve ever imagined that it’s unbelievable. We don’t even want to think about something so outrageous. It’s particularly hard to stomach if you don’t believe God exists at all. Then what do you do? You start talking about salamanders and rationalizing the gap in your world view. Well prepare yourselves for this one Miracles &

When someone posts a thought-provoking question on social media that’s NOT actually riddled with superficiality, the responses can be all over the board. Some get uncomfortable and all you get is crickets, others get nasty, and then maybe, just maybe a bit of wisdom shines though. If you listen to Miracles & Atheists, you already know we don’t like baseless rhetoric, regardless of where it comes from: Christian or atheist. So when I go through comments on a post that says, “Biggest beef with

I’s time to dive more into demon possession, oppression, or suppression, whatever you want to call it...some say it’s just the way the mind works. Others say it’s spiritual warfare. Either way, it’s not fun, and if demonic oppression is real, it’s not from God.

2021/03/09

From our many conversations with atheists, a pattern we’ve noticed is that one of the primary catalysts for a person accepting an atheistic world view is due to hypocrisy in the Church. Racism is a good example of this hypocrisy. Instead of leading the discussion, the Church as a whole has been relatively silent. From what we’ve been told, the silence is deafening. But I'm not racist! You may say... Listen for more. Miracles & Atheists on Social Media: Twitter: @miraclesatheist Instagram:

Do people really still think prayer works? Aren’t we more civilized these days, than having to rely on prayer to get things done? We already have sufficient evidence for why things happen, but none for God, right? Today you’re in for a philosophical treat. We get to talk to our atheist friend, Jason “Stray Cat” Williams, who says prayer is a “hot button” for him, not to mention a waste of time. On the flip side, we introduced Jason to a “prayer warrior,” Mr. Robby Graham, who believes prayer is

How is hell fair, really? How can eternal punishment be payment for a finite life of bad-living? Marcus Plating and Nick Snapp unpack the most common questions that have come up about the polarizing, controversial, sometimes hated topic of hell. We hope our listeners, The Miracles & Atheists Community (#theMAC) enjoy this discussion as we navigate through some of the major sticking points people have about hell, and the thought of people finding themselves in such a place.

Does hell not exist because "they" added it to the Book to scare people into living a life without sin? Can we use our own "Christ consciousness" to stop time? So many interesting topics come up when you start talking about hell. The idea that any of creation would find his or herself in hell has a way of bringing a wide range of emotional topics to the surface that we're not all that used to talking about.

When you're raised in crooked religion, atheism can be quite attractive. Nick Snapp and Marcus Plating have a fascinating conversation with a couple of guys who were raised in religion, turned to atheism and then in two very different ways came to recognize the existence of a Divine Creator. Both of our guests today have been part of the LGBTQ community and have very different world views of who Jesus Christ is, and what God thinks of them.

“The time of year when Christians & atheists suspend their belief systems and come together to celebrate paganism.” -Meme, Unknown Author We’re going to have a very uncomfortable conversation about Christmas, pagan roots and symbols related to Christmas, and try to unpack to the best of our ability whether it's in a Christian's best interest to partake. It's unsettling to even question the idea, yet, if we're really truth-seekers, we should be doing whatever we can to understand why we believe what
