In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan & Cameron dive into a nuanced theological discussion on Ross Douthat’s latest book Believe, exploring the provocative idea that religion—even in its broadest form—can serve as a legitimate and vital stepping stone toward Christianity. They examine Douthat’s arguments through the lens of current cultural disinterest in organized faith, C.S. Lewis’s concept of “mere Christianity,” and spiritual seekers like Simone Weil and David Foster Wallace. Is structured religion still the best place to begin a sincere search for truth in the modern age? Join them as they wrestle with these questions, challenge each other, and consider whether religion is a crutch, a catalyst, or a compass in a post-Christian world. Perfect for Christians craving thoughtful, biblically grounded commentary on contemporary spiritual issues.
