This week, Justin Brierley returns to talk more about his new book (and podcast), ‘The Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God: Why New Atheism Grew Old and Secular Thinkers Are Considering Christianity Again‘, as well as explore the positive impacts of Christianity on contemporary society…

And what’s pushing this new generation of secular thinkers to reconsider the Christian worldview in a positive light? This week, Frank…
