I recently contacted friends and family who identify as atheist or agnostic and asked them a simple question: What would you want to ask Christians about their faith? What questions have stopped you from believing, or from trusting the legitimacy of Christianity’s core claims? What follows are my answers to each question, offered as honestly…

Last week my phone helpfully reminded me that my car’s MOT and service were due.A small notification. A large emotional blow. There is, apparently, no warmer welcome into a new year than an unexpected bill, just in case you were still clinging to the illusion that Christmas “wasn’t that expensive.” Early January has a particular…

“If you love me, you will keep my commandments.” These words from Jesus in John 14:15 are both a comfort and a challenge. We often speak about love in soft, sentimental terms—but Jesus connects love to obedience. Not a legalistic obedience, but one that flows naturally from relationship.
