How do we reach the next generation?

What does the future hold for humanity—and where does Jesus fit into that story?

In this bonus episode of Bible Matters, we bring you a second interview with Oxford mathematician and Christian apologist John Lennox. Together, we explore one of the defining questions of our time: what kind of future are we moving towards? From rapid advances in technology to the growing interest in “upgrading” humanity, many are asking whether science can ultimately solve our deepest problems—even death itself. But are these hopes realistic? And what vision of the future does the Bible offer?

Drawing on his book 2084, John unpacks:

The promise and pitfalls of modern technology

What it really means to be human

The dangers of trying to redefine humanity

Why the Christian hope speaks powerfully into today’s questions

Most importantly, we consider how the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ reshape the way we think about progress, identity, and our ultimate destiny.

Whether you’re sceptical, curious, or already convinced, this conversation invites you to think more deeply about the future—and the hope that truly lasts.

What hope does artificial intelligence really offer for the future of humanity?

In this episode of the Bible Matters Podcast, Oxford mathematician John Lennox reflects on AI, transhumanism, and the growing belief that technology can solve humanity’s deepest problems. Drawing on science, philosophy, and the Bible, Lennox explains why technological progress cannot overcome death, sin, or the brokenness at the heart of human nature. Instead, he points to the hope of the Bible — a hope grounded not in machines or human enhancement, but in Jesus Christ, the resurrection, and the promise of new life.

This wide‑ranging conversation explores:

What artificial intelligence can and cannot do

The ethical dangers of transhumanism

Why science needs a Christian worldview to make sense Why death is more than a technical problem

The lasting hope offered by Jesus and the resurrection
