About this Episode

Segment 1: • Jordan Peterson speaks to 20 atheists—but refuses to confess Christ. • His worldview sounds spiritual, but not biblical. • Apologetics can stir minds, but only the gospel saves souls. Segment 2: • Peterson dodges the “Are you a Christian?” question again and again. • Atheists press hard—and his answers only get murkier. • When you rely on intellect, you end up with confusion, not salvation. Segment 3: • Peterson lets atheists question God without pointing them to Christ. • The Bible has answers, but Peterson holds back. • One atheist shows openness—will someone give her the gospel? Segment 4: • Peterson debates morality; the atheists need mercy, not theory. • “Aim up” won’t save anyone—only Jesus crucified for sinners. • A heart-wrenching reminder: truth without Christ is still lostness. – Order the new book, "Lies My Therapist Told Me", by Fortis Institute Fellow Dr. Greg Gifford now! https://www.harpercollins.com/pages/liesmytherapisttoldme – Thanks for listening!
