Still Christian?: What Canadian Christians Actually Believe w/ Andrew Bennett

Is there one true God in three Persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit? Is Jesus truly God and truly Man? Can God make a mistake?

What is the current status of theological beliefs among Christians in Canada? Andy had a chance to sit down with his good friend Rev. Dr. Andrew Bennett from Cardus to talk about the recent study they completed on this question. Listen in on their conversation as they talk about the findings and the trends we are seeing.

The Surprising Demise of Atheism

The Four Horsemen of the New Atheists: Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, Sam Harris, and Daniel Dennett, have faded from the cultural spotlight they once attracted. The New Atheists are now the Old Atheists. In fact, only two of the four are still alive. The questions they once raised still linger faintly but cultural conversations have shifted dramatically. Instead of asking, “Does God exist?” there are now an array of books and personalities asking and answering questions of sex, gender, and race, to name but a few. We have new questions and new influencers that now dominate the conversation in academia and households. Yet, as it turns out, the Old Atheists are not as irrelevant as one might think. On the AC podcast this week Andy, Steve, and Wes discuss how this current cultural moment is, in part, a product of their making and what we can learn from it moving forward.
