Скачать или смотреть The End of New Atheism, The Revival of God, and A Hope Eternal | Justin Brierley

In this episode, John sits down with Justin Brierley, an English academic, writer, podcaster, and Christian apologist. They explore cultural shifts in the West, particularly the rise and decline of New Atheism, and how recent years have seen a surprising resurgence of interest in Christianity, even among secular intellectuals.

Brierley discusses his experiences hosting debates between Christians and atheists during the peak of New Atheism, noting how the movement eventually splintered and lost momentum as it became increasingly dogmatic. He highlights the rise of figures like Jordan Peterson and Tom Holland, who have challenged secular narratives and reintroduced Christian ideas into mainstream discourse. The interview also touches on suffering, the resurrection of Jesus, and Christian sexual ethics.

Justin Brierley is a Christian apologist and discussion partner with those who don’t share the faith. In those capacities; he writes, speaks and podcasts. His latest book is The Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God.
