Thinking Out Loud

Jordan Peterson Jubilee Analysis


Listen Later

In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron react to Jordan Peterson’s appearance in the viral Jubilee debate—and things get theologically intense. They unpack where Peterson’s thinking aligns with Christian truth and where it dangerously veers off course. From disordered loves and worship to the meaning of belief, Nathan and Cameron bring biblical clarity and philosophical depth to the table. Along the way, they reference thinkers like Augustine, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, T.S. Eliot, David Foster Wallace, and Tom Holland, making this a must-listen for Christians who care about faith, reason, and the big questions of culture.


Topics Covered:

  • Is Jordan Peterson a Christian—or just Christian-adjacent?

  • What is worship, really? Augustine vs. Peterson

  • Disordered loves and cultural idolatry

  • Why “aim upward” isn’t the gospel

  • Peterson’s definition of belief—where it fails

  • Are atheists borrowing Christian morality? (feat. Tom Holland)

  • David Foster Wallace, Paul Tillich, and the quest for meaning

  • Why science can’t give you morality

    • Did empathy replace conscience? A naturalist critique
