Premier Unbelievable?

Unbelievable? offers a weekly podcast, blog, and video series hosted by Ruth Jackson and a team of thinkers and Christian apologists.

Unbelievable?

Artificial intelligence is changing far more than the way we work. Is it quietly changing what it means to be human?
As AI becomes our therapist, our teacher, our creative partner, even our romantic companion, are we handing over something uniquely human?
Professor Nigel Crook, one of the UK's leading AI researchers, and theologian Brian Brock go head-to-head over the biggest questions surrounding artificial intelligence.
In this conversation:
Could AI ever become conscious? Are AI girlfriends replacing real relationships? Is Silicon Valley creating a new religion? Why are Christians uniquely equipped to resist the attention economy? Will AI make us wiser... or slowly erode what makes us human?

Should we be scared? How AI is changing morality, meaning and human identity! With Theologian Dr Brian R Brock and AI Expert Prof Nigel Crook

Where did reality come from, where is it heading, and does any of it have meaning? In this live Unbelievable X Theora Media event, Jack Symes hosts a major conversation between four strikingly different thinkers: Christian philosopher William Lane Craig, Hindu scholar Jessica Frazier, philosopher Philip Goff and agnostic thinker Joe Folley. Craig argues that God is the best explanation for the universe, morality and human purpose. Folley questions whether meaning needs to be objective. Frazier challenges Western assumptions about God, matter and consciousness, while Goff reflects on mystical experience, psychedelics, suffering and his unexpected journey towards a form of theism. A wide-ranging debate on God, atheism, morality, consciousness and the story of everything.

The Story of Everything: God, Atheism, Meaning and Reality with William Lane Craig, Jessica Frazier, Philip Goff and Joe Folley

What does Christianity really offer a world searching for God, meaning and moral clarity?
In this episode of Unbelievable? The Interview, Luke Martin speaks with Dr Brian Brock, Professor of Theology at the University of Aberdeen, about some of the most urgent questions facing Christians today: should Christians seek political power? Is the idea of a “Christian nation” faithful to the gospel, or does it risk confusing the church with the state? How should Christians think about war, violence, just war theory and political enemies?
Brock also brings the conversation into deeply personal territory, reflecting on his son Adam, who has Down syndrome and autism, and explaining why disability theology challenges our culture’s obsession with productivity, success and control. This is a powerful conversation about faith, politics, human dignity and the image of God in an age of spiritual hunger and public division.

Is Christianity being hijacked by politics? Dr Brian Brock on God, War and Human Worth

Philip Pullman has called C.S. Lewis’s Narnia stories a “filthy lie” — but is that fair?
In this episode of Unbelievable, John Nelson is joined by Christian writer Caleb Woodbridge and science-fiction critic Damien Walter to explore Narnia, His Dark Materials, myth, imagination and the search for meaning in a secular age.
They discuss Pullman’s critique of Lewis, the “problem of Susan,” whether Christianity suppresses maturity or offers a deeper vision of reality, and why fantasy and science fiction continue to wrestle with God, goodness, suffering and hope.
Can stories reveal truth? Is Christianity simply one myth among many — or, as Lewis believed, the “true myth” behind them all?

Should the Fall be celebrated? | Caleb Woodbridge and Damien Walter on Pullman/CSLewis hosted by John Nelson

Did Christianity build the modern West?
From human rights and equality to science, secularism and democracy, many thinkers now argue that Christianity lies behind much of what modern Western societies value most. Popular historian Tom Holland helped revive this debate with his bestselling book Dominion, but how far can the argument really go?
In this episode of Unbelievable?, John Nelson is joined by Mike Jones of Inspiring Philosophy and writer Matt Whitley to explore whether Christianity is truly the foundation of the modern West.
Are ideas such as human rights, individual freedom and care for the vulnerable uniquely Christian? Did Christianity help create the conditions for modern science? And if Western values emerged from Christian roots, does that tell us anything about whether Christianity itself is true?
This week we discuss slavery, secularism, the rise of modern identity politics, Jordan Peterson, Douglas Murray, Tom Holland's influence, and whether a post-Christian society can retain the values it inherited from Christianity.

What Happens When the West Abandons Christianity? Matt Whiteley vs Mike Jones hosted by John Nelson

In this wide-ranging episode of Unbelievable? The Interview, host Luke Martin speaks with Christian apologist, author and Islam specialist Dr Andy Bannister about the big questions shaping our cultural moment. Andy reflects on the renewed curiosity about Christianity among young people, why questions of meaning and beauty may now be more compelling than classic debates about God’s existence, and how Christians can speak into a culture marked by anxiety and uncertainty. He also explores the growth of Islam in the UK, religious freedom and free speech, and how Christians should respond with both clarity and compassion. Finally, Luke and Andy turn to artificial intelligence, asking what AI reveals about consciousness, the soul, human uniqueness and what it means to be made in the image of God.

Is Christianity Making a Comeback? Andy Bannister on Faith, Islam and AI

What happens when a philosopher loses faith in God — and then unexpectedly finds it again?
In this deeply personal and philosophical episode of Unbelievable?, host John Nelson sits down with philosophers Dr Shaun Stevenson and Dr Joshua Sijuwade to explore belief, doubt, suffering and the search for meaning.

Shaun shares how he moved from Christianity into atheism after wrestling with judgmental church experiences, the problem of evil, and the terrifying possibility that loved ones might be eternally separated from God. Years later, however, he found himself drawn back toward Christianity through fatherhood, suffering, philosophy and a renewed understanding of grace.

Joshua tells his own powerful story of dramatic Christian conversion after a profound spiritual experience at age 19, before explaining why philosophy still provides intellectual grounds for belief in God despite the reality of suffering.

Suffering, hell and the search for God with Dr Joshua Sijuwade and Dr Shaun Stevenson hosted by John Nelson

What does evolution mean for Christian faith? In this episode of Unbelievable?, John Nelson hosts a thoughtful dialogue between molecular biologist Dr Denis Alexander and returning guest Ed Atkinson on one of the deepest questions in science and theology. Can evolution be reconciled with the character of God, or do millions of years of suffering count against belief? Denis argues that evolution can fit within a Christian vision of creation, purpose and resurrection. At the same time, Ed presses the moral problem of suffering, questioning whether such a costly process is compatible with a loving God. Along the way, they discuss free will, the fall, the image of God, human uniqueness, morality, and whether meaning depends on ultimate purpose - a rich and honest conversation at the intersection of evolution, suffering, and faith.

Can a Loving God Use Evolution? Denis Alexander vs Ed Atkinson hosted by John Nelson

As Oxford mathematician and Christian apologist John Lennox prepares to appear on The Diary of a CEO, he joins Luke Martin on Unbelievable to reflect on his extraordinary life and the questions that have shaped a generation. From Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens and Peter Singer to Alex O’Connor, AI, social media, suffering, marriage and Christian hope, Lennox looks back on the rise and fall of New Atheism and the renewed cultural interest in Christianity. He explains why thinkers such as Tom Holland and Iain McGilchrist are helping people reconsider the Christian story, why he finally decided to write his autobiography, My Story, and why today’s deepest questions have shifted from “science versus faith” to meaning, purpose, identity and the sacred. In this wide-ranging conversation, Lennox reflects on a lifetime of engaging sceptics with truth and grace, and argues that Christianity still makes sense in 2026.

John Lennox on Dawkins, Meaning, AI and the Return of the Sacred

What happens when one of the world’s leading geneticists sits down with one of the world’s most influential Christian theologians?
In this special live episode of Unbelievable?, recorded at the Oxford University Museum of Natural History in partnership with the Oxford Pastorate and BioLogos, Dr Francis Collins and N. T. Wright explore some of life’s biggest questions: Can science and faith truly coexist? Has evolution disproved Christianity? What do truth, evidence, morality and human nature tell us about reality? And does scientific discovery point away from God, or deeper towards him?

Francis Collins, former Director of the National Institutes of Health and leader of the Human Genome Project, shares his journey from atheism to Christian faith and explains why his scientific work has never conflicted with belief in God. N. T. "Tom" Wright, host of the Ask NT Wright Anything podcast, brings his expertise as a world-renowned New Testament scholar to questions of Scripture, resurrection, truth, wisdom and the Christian vision of creation.
Together, in a conversation hosted by Rev. Bethan Willis, Oxford Pastorate Chaplain, they address the perceived conflict between evolution and Christianity, the crisis of trust in a post-truth culture, Adam and Eve, radical altruism, consciousness, the soul, and the search for wisdom. The evening concludes with audience Q&A and a surprise musical finale from Collins, Wright and BioLogos’ Jim Stump.
