Nancy Pearcey

In Mere Christianity, CS Lewis noted that, “Nearly all that we call human history... is one long terrible story of man trying to find something other than God which will make him happy.”

The cultural mantra most often heard today is “don’t think just believe” and that is true whether you find yourself in a church, on a college campus, and even the workplace. Asking questions, especially questions that challenge the status quo are off-limits in many places and on many subjects.

But does this uncritical approach to life really provide any emotional satisfaction? Is it really possible to go through life without assessing the reasons why we believe and act in certain ways as opposed to believing and acting in certain other ways?

The fact is friends, people want answers to their very serious questions. This in turn means that people believe truth exists. Do you consider yourself prepared to answer questions from your friends, family, or co-workers?

This episode of SER is my conversation with author and apologist Nancy Pearcey.
