Theme ‘God Unmuted’ to help believers share faith with confidence in a divided culture
DALLAS, April 27, 2022 – Premier Insight, the Christian media group behind the popular “Unbelievable?” podcast, announces the Unbelievable? Conference 2022 on Saturday, May 14, with speakers such as Alister McGrath, Joseph D’Souza, Phil Vischer and Skye Jethani sharing their thoughts on how Christians can speak into our confused and divided culture with grace and truth. The conference will also serve as the global launch for the brand new Premier Unbelievable? apologetics ministry, helping Christians to communicate their faith and skeptics to explore it.
“There is so much hostility to Christian belief in society today that it’s easy to put God on mute in our conversations with others,” says Justin Brierley, host of the “Unbelievable?” podcast and Theology and Apologetics editor for its parent platform, Premier Insight. “Concern about how to answer hard questions on whether we can ‘prove’ this or that claim from the Bible, or what our stance is on the latest cultural flashpoint, can mean it’s easier just to ‘not go there.’”
The conference will explore topics such as:
Why Christ alone can win the culture wars
How do I share Jesus in a confused and divided world?
How to transform our culture and not be consumed by it
Is there a master behind our minds?
Each session will include a featured speaker, discussion panels and live Q&A. Attendees are invited to participate in-person or online. The final session will be a live recording of “The Big Conversation” Season 4, episode 3, hosted in partnership with John Templeton Foundation featuring leading psychiatrist and philosopher Dr. Iain McGilchrist, author of the influential book “The Master and his Emissary,” in conversation with Christian neuroscientist Dr. Sharon Dirckx as they discuss brain science, consciousness and God.
Tickets are either $99 for in person or simply pay what you wish for online, available at unbelievable.live/us-in-person-payment. The conference gets under way at 2 p.m. BST/9 a.m. EDT with the final session scheduled for 8 p.m. BST/3 p.m. EDT.
The conference will also debut the new Premier Unbelievable? multi-media ministry that exists to help skeptics explore faith and Christians to understand, defend and share their faith with confidence. It brings together leading podcasts in addition to “Unbelievable?,” such as “Ask N.T. Wright Anything,” “C.S. Lewis with Alister McGrath,” and “Matters of Life and Death.” Other resources will include written articles and research on top apologetics topics, along with links to additional conferences and events.
“It is my prayer that Premier’s Unbelievable? Conference 2022 and our new Premier Unbelievable? ministry and website will promote unity among believers around the world as they learn how to engage in civil and respectful dialogue around the difficult and controversial issues of the day,” shares Peter Kerridge, CEO of Premier Insight. “We hope these resources will help Christians learn how to be a confident voice and faithful witness to Christ during these uncertain and divided times.”
