Definitely start with Joe Rogan's interview with Wesley Huff. Spotify has it, and it's on youtube as well https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwyAX69xG1Q. Then if you can handle listening to debates without falling asleep and you want to see what all the fuss was about, you can find the unedited debate between Huff and Billy Carson on youtube. Billy Carson is a skeptic of Christianity, and believes a mishmash of alien and new age beliefs, so claims of Biblical inaccuracy are addressed in these podcasts which is why I am recommending them for you specifically. The Case for Christ is the story of how of Lee Strobel, a former atheist and journalist, decided to research Jesus to determine any proof of his claims. He expected to prove the Bible wasn't true, and his book documents the evidences he found that convinced him Jesus actually existed and was who He claimed to be, and Lee became a Christ follower. https://www.amazon.com/Case-Christ-Journalists-Personal-Investigation/dp/0310209307. Just this month, Larry Sanger, co-founder of Wikipedia, philosophy professor, and lifelong agnostic, publicly announced on his blog that he had become a believer in Jesus Christ. His blog entry is basically a short book and is very philosophical, but intellectuals with deep questions will surely identify with what he has to say. https://larrysanger.org/2025/02/how-a-skeptical-philosopher-becomes-a-christian/. If you aren't a big reader, perhaps finding interviews with Lee Strobel or Larry Sanger could help with some of your questions. And to address specifically the Moses/Sargon concern, I came across this explanation that might help. It was just a quick google search because I should be in bed right now, but I'm sure there are more complex explanations out there. https://evidenceforchristianity.org/can-you-explain-the-parallels-between-the-stories-of-sargon-and-moses-could-the-story-of-moses-be-borrowed/
