Frank is easy to understand and very confident. Awesome work . ### 5/5 — Awesome app! *2021-05-05, version 5.12.0* Truly thankful for Frank Turek putting this app together with great information on apologetics. ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2021-02-24, version 5.10.1* It’s absolutely incredible how easy these explanations are, how simple the tactics are to use, and how mind boggling it is to atheists and others that they don’t know the answers or different perspectives to these major life questions. Thank you to Frank and thank you Jesus! Awesome tool for the everyday Christian. ### 5/5 — Christians *2021-02-08, version 5.10.1* Every Christian needs to listen this app.... there’s more than just faith here and rightly so ... ### 5/5 — Cross Examined *2021-02-06, version 5.10.1* If your looking for the truth on God, this is the app for you! Frank is a great apologist which explains Christianity really well and makes it easy to understand. ### 5/5 — Great thinking *2021-01-28, version 5.10.1* As someone who hates the way society jumps to conclusions right now without any facts I love hearing great minds speaking truth and not opinions. I was an atheist until I heard great minds like Frank speak The Truth objectively. I could care less about politically correct. As Ben Shapiro says facts do not care about your feelings. ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2021-01-20, version 5.10.1* Great content that’s easy to follow for Christians seeking answers and information on a variety of subjects ### 5/5 — Such an uplifting and inspirational podcast! Dr. Turek really helped get me through 2020 *2021-01-09, version 5.10.1* Thought provoking and always related back to the Bible! Frank is absolutely kind of person we need going to college campus. ### 5/5 — Truth Explained *2020-12-26, version 5.6.1* I really appreciate Frank’s ability to keep things simple and straight forward in a “truth-in-love” manner. There is something very amazing about TRUTH...you cannot change it! ### 5/5 — Intelligent and Excellent for Christian witness *2020-12-19, version 5.6.1* Dr. Turuk and his excellent network bring to light how critical thinking brings GOD into all perspectives that people question about faith. I am to stupid to be an atheist also! ### 5/5 — Great message *2020-12-02, version 5.6.1* A must listen podcast for anyone searching for the truth! Praise God ### 5/5 — Seekers of Truth Download *2020-11-29, version 5.6.1* If you want a solid, scripture-based, upbeat, logically driven, interview laced podcast, go no further. If not, you should. ### 5/5 — Answers *2020-10-16, version 5.6.1* I love how there are quick and outstanding questions to most of the questions against God, Bible, etc! ### 5/5 — Thoroughly Informative! *2020-10-06* The strength of Dr. Turek’s program is due to his own knowledge along with the outstanding guests he hosts. I have studied Christianity all of my life. I was looking for a place to be challenged to enlarge my understanding of the Bible as well as confronting questions of faith. This program has helped me tremendously in my pursuit! Thank you for an excellent program! I am ever indebted to you! In a world, and sadly the Church, that depends on feelings and self-focused rhetoric rather than on facts, you have helped me to more fully love God with all of my mind. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2020-09-25, version 5.6.1* Good app ### 5/5 — Excellent *2020-09-13, version 5.6.1* Very logical and reasonable. ### 5/5 — Only for those who want to be a critical thinker *2020-09-02, version 5.6.1* Fantastic podcasts that help teach you to think- great apologetics- challenge your thinking. Frank Turek is a phenomenal speaker. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Political Talking head holding a Bible *2021-01-22, version 5.10.1* Wana try this podcast? Listen to the episode produced right after the Capitol Killing and Riots. Then you should decide if you want to take advice from this person. I won’t be supporting him in any way ### 1/5 — App broken *2020-08-09, version 5.4.0* The app hasn’t been working for a while now ### 3/5 — One small, yet annoying issue *2021-05-27* The information on here is somewhat easy to navigate. But if you’re looking for something specific, the search option yields no results. I’ve tried to type the most basic things that would trigger some sort of result(God, Jesus, Bible, the Letter “A”). And the only result is “We couldn’t find what you were looking for” Fix this and I’ll give a five star rating! ### 3/5 — Invasive *2019-07-10* I like the idea of having apologetics with me for reference. But this seems a little too invasive and over bearing. I'm kind of getting a feel for Frank, after having seen many many apologists, he's got a lot of good things to say, but here's my two cents. No settings. I don't wish to have a widget thing or whatever on my control center, that annoys me, but there's no way to remove it, that annoys me more. Also, the interface is not intuitive, too much music when I play a selection to listen to. Frankly, I don't like any music when I listen to things of/about God, or contemplate God, Jesus, the holy Spirit, read a Bible. Especially because music has become so ubiquitous in this day. And having seen Frank talk about Jesus being intolerant, I imagine Jesus would also be intolerant of that, though, of course, I don't know. But I don't think he'd put a widget thing in control center. Anyway, this app is on probation. So far it has a lot against it. ### 4/5 — Good app, but some intellectual dishonesty from Frank *2019-01-13* I wish I could give this 5 stars, but I can’t. Although this app has great apologetic information and Frank teaches you essential critical reasoning skills to deal with arguments against Christianity, Frank doesn’t always practice what he preaches. If you use what Frank teaches you against him, he shuts down the discussion and doesn’t engage with you. Frank will say that not everyone will agree with what he says on his show, and that he gets that, but this is something deeper. To refuse to discuss a topic at all is deeper than simply not agreeing with Frank. What I am referring to is the topic of Flat Earth theory. Frank invites people to ask him questions on his radio show, except for Flat Earth. He no longer allows those questions. So let’s use what Frank teaches on his show against him and see how he reacts: Frank: Have you ever examined the evidence for the Flat Earth theory? If the Flat Earth theory were true, would you become a Flat Earther? A lot of times the answer to that question is no, because the problem isn’t intellectual, but moral, emotional , or volitional. People don’t want the Earth to be flat, and so they suppress the truth in unrighteousness and go their own way. Frank teaches that we need to follow the evidence wherever it leads, yet Frank won’t follow the evidence of Flat Earth to see where it leads. This is hypocrisy and intellectual dishonesty. Frank criticizes the UC Berkeley college for shutting down debate about transgender issues, yet Frank himself shuts down debate about Flat Earth. This is hypocrisy. You better repent Frank. Stop shutting down discussion about Flat Earth. ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-05-11, version 6.2.3* Love it ### 5/5 — Very informative and transformative *2025-02-09, version 6.2.3* Knowing my Lord and Jesus Christ and all the more defending the gospel made possible through cross examined! Thank you so much Dr. Frank Turek, I am also a Doctor in the Philippines but also a follower of Jesus. I love your content thank you for doing this for God’s glory1 ### 5/5 — Very very needed information!! *2023-08-15, version 6.2.3* Highly recommend this!! A go to guide to handle the world around us and stand on our morals ### 5/5 — Blown Away!!! *2023-07-25, version 6.2.3* Such an excellent app. I’d highly recommend it to believers AND nonbelievers. ### 5/5 — Great Content *2023-03-14, version 6.1.7* A good variety of content and many thought provoking and educational podcasts. ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Asking the right questions *2022-04-08* Frank is an excellent witness for Christ. He asks all of the right questions that people need to ask about Christian life today and isn’t afraid to stand on what the Bible says. Even if you don’t agree with all of the conclusions he comes to, hear him out and be edified by his thoughts on the Bible, history, culture and a lot in between ### 5/5 — Proof that TRUTH can never be suppressed *2022-03-08, version 5.17.1* Apologetics has given me peace of mind and more confidence in knowing exactly what ways to respond, how to respond and behave when challenged with our Christian Faith. It lets me know with 100% certainty that I believe in the right worldview & am on the right road to our Heavenly Father! ### 5/5 — Frank Turek is brilliant. *2021-12-06, version 5.16.0* I have learned to order my thoughts and strengthen my faith by listening to Frank Tureks clear thinking, logic and infectious faith and enthusiasm! Entertaining and useful content for Christian and skeptic alike. ### 5/5 — Thank you! *2021-11-03, version 5.16.0* I have been really close to giving up my faith lately. Been going through a season of doubt that’s been super hard. But Frank’s videos have really helped me. Now I am able to just open an app to listen to his videos and podcasts! So thank you! ### 5/5 — I am OBSESSED *2021-09-17, version 5.15.0* The past few years I have been on a truth hunt. I think that religion shouldn’t just stay in is little box. But rather be acknowledged in everything we do. Especially when it comes to science. I love this app! I highly recommend. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
