A French atheist-turned-theologian discusses his conversion Jul 12, 2014

Show notes

Guillaume Bignon was a French man living a happy and godless life until recently when a series of events led him on an intellectual journey towards Christianity. Today he is a theologian.

He discusses his story with Wade Padgett, who went in the other direction, becoming an atheist after years as a Christian. What role does evidence and experience play in conversion, and is belief in God 'properly basic' as Guillaume claims?
