‘Hercules’ Actor Kevin Sorbo Joins Professor John Lennox on Faith Exploration
By: Laura Bennett
John Lennox is rare amongst his fellow career mathematicians. As a devoted Christian, he has debated on multiple stages with some of the greatest minds in atheism and science – Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, Peter Atkins – about the existence of God, and how the arenas of faith and science relate to one another.

The God Who Bends Down
The Bible was written in a polytheistic culture: a culture which believed that there were many gods. That’s why the writers of the Bible emphasise over and over again that the true God is better than all the others. Continue reading “The God Who Bends Down”
