Reviving Faith: How Belief In God Is Making A Comeback - Justin Brierley | 26

For All The Saints With Ben Hancock

Justin Brierley is a writer, speaker, and podcaster committed to building dialogue between Christians and non-Christians. His first book was titled Unbelievable? Why, after ten years of talking with atheists, I’m still a Christian and in September 2023 he published his second book, The Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God.
I wanted to speak to Justin after reading his exceptional new book (and after listening to the accompanying podcast), it brought me hope as a Brit in what is presented to be an incredibly secular United Kingdom. Anecdotally, that's not the case. I'm constantly surprised by friends and acquaintances responding positively or showing interest in my Christian projects. I'm also seeing many statistics beneath the surface highlighting societal trends (especially in the rising generation) showing a return to prayer, church, family, and God.
Some highlights include how to remain hopeful in a pre-war world, what Justin thinks of Richard Dawkins' opinion of Jordan Peterson, and why young men in Finland are showing up to Church more and more.
Justin will be hosting an event in London with Tom Holland on March 5th, head to his website to get tickets.
For All The Saints episodes are released every Monday on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts and more.
