Episode 201: The Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God with Justin Brierley [Part 1]

Has New Atheism run its course? Are cultural influencers starting to take an interest in Christianity once more? Hear what our special guest has to say this week and next, author & broadcaster Justin Brierley, former host of the long-running UK program Unbelievable? For nearly two decades, Justin has had a front-row seat to some of the most fascinating, congenial, and intriguing discussions between Christians and non-Christians. We recently had the distinct privilege of sitting down with Justin in person here in Texas to discuss his new book The Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God -  Why New Atheism Grew Old and Secular Thinkers Are Considering Christianity Again. His answers may surprise and hopefully encourage you!

Justin Brierley is a freelance writer, speaker and broadcaster who has become known for creating dialogues between Christians and non-Christians. Justin is passionate about creating conversations around faith, science, theology and culture. Through creative use of podcast, radio, print, video and social media, he aims to showcase an intellectually compelling case for Christianity, while taking seriously the questions and objections of sceptics.

Justin has worked in radio, podcast and video for over two decades. Until April 2023 he was Theology & Apologetics Editor for Premier Christian Radio, and hosted the Unbelievable? radio show and podcast as well as the Ask NT Wright Anything podcast. Justin was also editor of Premier Christianity magazine from 2014-2018, for which he continues to contribute articles. Justin's first book,  Unbelievable? Why, after ten years of talking with atheists, I'm Still a Christian (SPCK) was published in 2017.
