What True Crime Can Teach Us About Truth and Faith
True crime is a genre that explores the darkest aspects of human nature. It can enlighten and inspire us in our understanding of truth and faith. J. Warner Wallace, a former cold-case detective and Christian apologist, believes in this power. In his book “Truth in True Crime,” he demonstrates how true crime can reveal profound truths that resonate deeply with our lives and faith.
Rediscovering Faith: Why More Atheists Are Finding God in Modern Times
There is a common belief that atheism is gaining popularity in the modern world, particularly in the United States. However, an exciting trend contradicts this assumption: a growing number of individuals who previously identified as atheists are now expressing a belief in God. If this is true, one may wonder what reasons are behind the shift toward faith among former atheists in an increasingly secular society.
How belief in God gives purpose and meaning in life
One of the leading existentialist philosophers of the 20th century, Jean-Paul Sartre, responded this way to the question of life’s meaning: “Man is condemned to be free because once thrown into the world, he is responsible for everything he does. It is up to you to give life meaning.”
Unlike atheism and existentialism, the Christian worldview offers a profound and reassuring perspective on the purpose and significance of human existence. It provides compelling reasons to believe that our existence is not the result of mere chance but rather the work of an intelligent and benevolent God.
