I lost my faith in atheism in February and became a Christian. It's taken me about 7 months, and 3 months of regular church going to feel confident to publicly say that I'm a Christian.<br><br>I definitely started to take Christianity seriously through the intellectual route initially. Tom Holland has really changed my world view.

I went from Christopher Hitchens to Sam Harris to Jordon Peterson to Jonathan Pageau to being received in the Eastern Orthodox Church. Atheism to Faith in 4 thinkers.

Justin Brierley's show helped give me the courage to listen to the arguments against Christianity when I first realized the need to break out of my Christian echo chamber. Helped strengthen my faith significantly. He hosted "Unbelievable" with such grace and honor. He is missed on that program, but I'm very glad he's still an active voice for belief.

It is Justin Brierley who has been a key touchstone in my turning away from the religion of Atheism and towards faith. I'm still figuring things out as I write this but I am pleased to say I am closer to faith than not. I'm honoured to be featured in Justin's book and I will always be thankful to Justin for his voice and friendship. ❤

I must say, I was a luke warm Christian (by luke warm I mean I was definitely not walking my talk at all) until I learned about new atheism. I started researching and it was the only thing in my mind. I now am stronger in my relationship with God and from personal experience I definitely know he exists, he has revealed himself to me. I am forever greatful that God used the new atheism movement to let me find him.

The message i got here is , CHURCH BE READY FOR THE REFUGIES LOOKING FOR THE LOVE AND GRACE OF GOD. I pray we're ready to tell of His Love.

Peter Baghosian recently had an interview with a fellow atheist on the woke and trans phenomenon, and they both agreed they were missing the days when the craziest thing somebody believed was that some guy walked on water 2000 years ago.

I always have been a critical thinking as child but I had things happen in my life that can't be explained I was 10 years old and one day in my school I heard a voice in my head tell me that my one class mate wanted to become a Christian I audibly said what ?! The voice again said he wants to become a Christian so I went over to him and asked him if he wanted to become a Christian and he looked at me very startled and pleadingly and said yes and got to lead him to Christ then I was 16 I was in really bad car wreck I looked up from my radio and saw a tellephone pole right in front of me and I heard that same voice tell me hold on to the life you have I woke up without a single scratch on me and my car was completely smashed in God never really gave me a chance to become a atheist and I thank him for it

In Jesus and In God I found the cure for the two great existential dreads of my life. The fear of not existing and the fear of eternity. In Christ i have the hope that I will continue to exist, in the mind of the God that created this universe I find the hope that my heart will be once again filled with awe and wonder of the kind that makes me wish to continue on, just to see what He creates next!

Jordan Peterson amazes me with how he can explain some of the biblical stories with amazing depth. And how there are so many lessons to be learned and how much the stories apply to our modern culture. Thanks for this great discussion.

I really thanked God for the new atheist that stared things up among religious people. I came to know christ deeper thanks to my debates with atheist. As a naive christain then, they sound so convincing, it was Scary and exciting experience for me then, i got to read my bible more deeply and pay more attention to scientific claims, and watch a lot of debates. In the end I've no atom of doubt in God's existence and in the truth of the bible.
