This episode features a conversation between John Pinna and Jeff Mitchell, an atheist and author of the book "Jesus Demigod", which argues that Jesus did not exist. Mitchell shares his faith journey, having grown up as a Christian in the Bible Belt and later becoming an atheist after critically examining the Bible and Christian theology. The conversation explores topics such as the historicity of Jesus, the reliability of the New Testament, and the concept of truth.
