Episode 202: The Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God with Justin Brierley [Part 2]

<p>For decades, we have been told a familiar but baleful tale, one that claims scientific discoveries in the cosmos have "dethroned" our human significance in the universe. But is this true? Are we really insignificant? Not at all. Our guest again this week is author &amp; broadcaster <strong>Justin Brierley</strong>, author of the new book, <a href="https://justinbrierley.com/the-surprising-rebirth-of-belief-in-god/"><strong><em>The Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God - </em></strong><strong> </strong><strong><em>Why New Atheism Grew Old and Secular Thinkers Are Considering Christianity Again</em></strong></a><em>. </em>Rather than denigrating our uniqueness and specialness as being created in the image of God, and rather than disproving God's existence, science seems to be reminding at least a few leading scientists and cultural intellectuals of the profundity and grandeur of the Christian faith. Is atheism in retreat? Is Christianity making a comeback? Come and see.</p><p><strong><br>Justin Brierley</strong> 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.<br><br></p><p>Justin has worked in radio, podcast and video for over two decades.
