Please note my ultimate goal is not to get atheists to sweat but to reconsider their beliefs and ultimately come to be saved by Jesus.

In this video we discuss one of the most powerful arguments for God's existence, the Kalam Cosmological Argument and respond to a few common objections. In preparation to this video I listened to hours of William Lane Craig's work on the argument, as well as responses by atheists such as Graham Oppy, Alex J. O'Connor (Cosmic Skeptic), Lawrence Krauss. Alexander Vilenkin who is an atheist/agnostic also was a valuable resource on question of the beginning of the universe.

Resources for further study:

You can watch the full debate between William Lane Craig and Lawrence Krauss here:

If you'd like to see William Lane Craig use the Kalam on Hitchens in a debate you can watch that here:

You can read Alexander Vilenkin's article on the Borde-Guth-Vilenkin Theorem and his interaction with the Kalam Cosmological Argument:

William Lane Craig has an excellent response to Alexander Vilenkin's proposal that the universe was caused by quantum nucleation through quantum tunneling. You can read it here:

For further reading, I recommend Stephen Meyer's Return of the God Hypothesis which has an excellent explanation of the Borde-Guth-Vilenkin Theorem:
