Summary: <br> <br> Can a purely materialistic worldview account for concepts like human dignity, moral absolutes, or objective meaning? In a surprising (and encouraging) turn of events, many who once held to an atheistic worldview are beginning to see that a search for meaning without God is ultimately futile. As this realization continues to permeate the minds of prominent intellectuals within the new atheist movement, will this spark a new interest in faith conversations and even Christianity itself?<br> <br> This week, <a class="ql-link" href="https://justinbrierley.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Justin Brierley</a> returns to talk more about his new book (and podcast), '<a class="ql-link" href="https://justinbrierley.com/the-surprising-rebirth-of-belief-in-god" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">The Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God: Why New Atheism Grew Old and Secular Thinkers Are Considering Christianity Again</a>', as well as explore the positive impacts of Christianity on contemporary society and its overarching role in uplifting humanity. Why did Christianity spread so quickly in the ancient world? Was Julias Caesar a hero or a tyrant? Why are people flocking to hear Jordan Peterson speak about the Bible of all things? All of this and more will be discussed in the conclusion of this special two-part series!<br> <br> To view the entire VIDEO PODCAST be sure to <a class="ql-link" href="https://community.crossexamined.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">join our CrossExamined private community</a>.
