What does it mean to have faith in the 21st century? Has science ruled out God’s existence? Can you be a Christian without believing it’s true?
William Lane Craig and Philip Goff in discussion
Professor William Lane Craig (Biola University) and Professor Philip Goff (Durham University) are two philosophers who are both Christians but have a very different understanding of Christianity. Craig is a conservative evangelical who believes Jesus rose bodily from the dead. Goff is a progressive who identifies as ‘heretical’ and is very unsure whether any of it is true. They will debate their different views, but also explore how people with such different views can get along in a polarised world.
