It's time to explore the 'Jordan Peterson Phenomenon'
You can support my new podcast on 'Giving Tuesday'
Hello friends…
He is perhaps the most intriguing public intellectual in the world right now.
Many of you responded to the newsletter I shared a few weeks ago on Jordan B Peterson’s recent arena event in front of over 12,000 people in London. Now you’ve got the chance for an even deeper dive on his story and influence in Episode 5 of The Surprising Rebirth Of Belief In God podcast.
Peterson rose to fame as a secular psychologist pointing his large audience back to the Bible. Is he a 'gateway drug' for Christianity? And what does he actually believe about God? I hear from thinkers, converts and the man himself about why so many have flocked to his message. I hope you enjoy this new episode
‘The Meaning Crisis’
…Get the next episode NOW!
If you just can’t wait for Episode 6… you can listen to it NOW when you become a Silver or Gold supporter on Patreon.
Find out why a mental health crisis is sweeping the West. In a world where we can choose to be whatever we want to be, is this also an identity crisis? I hear from thinkers, psychologists and converts on The Meaning Crisis engulfing our culture and whether the Christian story could be poised to answer it.
Podcast at no. 1 in the UK
I’m delighted that the new podcast series has been consistently charting at no.1 in the UK ‘Religion and Spirituality’ podcast charts since its launch a month ago (and getting into the US charts too!). It’s reaching a wide audience and I believe is charting a significant moment in our culture right now.
Here’s just a couple of lovely tweets received in response to the show:
“I devoured the first 4 episodes like a book I couldn’t put down. Congratulations Justin on such a high quality production. You helped make sense of the wild ride of faith debate since the online era.” LUKE
“As a student of Apologetics, I’m thrilled to stumble across this podcast. So thoughtful and well produced.” NAOMI
Support this new podcast on ‘Giving Tuesday’
It won’t come as a surprise that producing an engaging and high-quality podcast documentary series (which will span at least 28 episodes!) comes at a financial cost. This includes editing, licensing and platform fees and more, as well as the time and resource I put into the podcast myself. Your support goes a long way in helping to make it happen!
If you’ve enjoyed the podcast and would like to help others discover it then please consider a gift to Think Faith. Today is especially apt as ‘Giving Tuesday’ is a day to encourage generosity in contrast to the commercialism of ‘Black Friday’!
There are three main ways you can do this:
