Borrowed Beliefs: How Detractors Depend on Christian Doctrine | Glen Scrivener

In this interview, John sits down with author, minister and director of Speak Life, Glen Scrivener for a conversation on how the Christian worldview has shaped our society. Glen does a fantastic job communicating how thoroughly the Christian ethic has shaped and still continues to shape our culture today. Most remarkably, Glen highlights how even many of the arguments of Christianity’s biggest detractors are based on presuppositions that are fundamentally Christian in nature. Glen Scrivener is an ordained minister in the Church of England and an evangelist who preaches Christ through writing, speaking, and online media. He also directs the evangelistic ministry Speak Life. He has written several books including, The Air We Breathe: How We All Came to Believe in Freedom, Kindness, Progress, and Equality (The Good Book Company, 2022) and 3-2-1: The Story of God, the World, and You (10Publishing, 2014). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 0:00 - Introduction 0:44 - Introducing Glen Scrivener 1:31 - Who is Jesus? 4:01 - People no longer know what is in the Bible.
