Because Truth Matters, Reality Matters–Hank Hanegraaff on A Commitment to Reality

Because Truth Matters, Reality Matters–Hank Hanegraaff on A Commitment to Reality

Author: The Christian Research Institute February 24, 2026 Duration: 1:44
Hank Hanegraaff brings an important announcement about a brand-new initiative at the Christian Research Institute: a new podcast titled A Commitment to Reality, hosted by his son, Dave Hanegraaff.

This podcast is not only timely but extraordinarily relevant. Why? Because we live in an era of “reality rot.” To paraphrase Blaise Pascal, we live in an age in which truth is so obscure and falsehood so established that, apart from “a commitment to reality,” you simply cannot know it.

Our new podcast is a powerful complement to CRI’s other podcasts and publications, extending our ministry and mission to a whole new generation of change agents.

Please subscribe to A Commitment to Reality on YouTube for full episodes and clips, and follow wherever you get your podcasts. You can also help spread the word by rating, reviewing, and telling others about A Commitment to Reality.  

And remember: Because truth matters, reality matters. That’s why we must remain committed to reality.  

For decades, Hank Hanegraaff has been known as the Bible Answer Man, a voice of thoughtful Christian apologetics. This Bible Answer Man Podcast with Hank Hanegraaff continues that legacy, produced by The Christian Research Institute. Each episode is built around the real questions people are asking, moving beyond simple soundbites to provide substantive, well-reasoned discussions rooted in historic Christian thought. You'll hear Hank engage with topics spanning theology, cultural trends, and personal spirituality, offering clarity on complex issues. The aim is to equip thoughtful believers with a deeper understanding of their faith, fostering confidence in both belief and practice. This isn't about superficial debate but about building a resilient, informed walk. The conversations naturally weave through matters of religion, society, and education, reflecting a comprehensive view of faith in the modern world. Tuning into this podcast means joining a long-running dialogue dedicated to intellectual integrity and spiritual growth, where challenging questions are met with respect and thorough exploration. It’s for anyone seeking to move past confusion and find coherent, biblically grounded perspectives on the issues that matter most.
