Challenging Atheism

Published by on Friday 26th March 2010

Church member, Richard Coton has compiled a list of websites which serve as thinking tools for challenging atheism on an intellectual basis. We hope that you find them of benefit and of interest.

The websites are:

ReJesus
http://www.rejesus.co.uk/
Looks at how Jesus has been quoted, mis-quoted, filmed, reported on, worshiped and argued over. Lots of up-to-date media stuff.

Emerging Culture
http://www.sharejesusinternational.com/
Projects, missions, e-communications: Sharing Jesus-news will change our Culture and make you passionate about justice

Slipstream (Evangelical Alliance)
http://www.eauk.org/slipstream/resources/index.cfm
A whole range of resources for young leaders ...and for the not-so-young too. Watch out for the Slipstream podcasts and the "Friday Night Theology" weekly podcast (allowing Jesus into the conversation about politics, media, sport or culture)

LICC
http://www.licc.org.uk/
The London-based Christian think-tank. Have a look at their "Engaging with Culture" pages. Lots of great stuff.

Godpod
http://sptc.htb.org.uk/godpod
Fortnightly podcasts. God and Barak Obama/ Theology and Ecology/ Heaven and Hell, and a lot more. Want to get into some serious Biblical thinking without reading massive books with small print? This is where to start.

James Gregory Lectures, St Andrews
http://www.jamesgregory.org/
12 Lectures over 4 years by world-class experts on Science and religion. Sir John Houghton, (for 10 years head of the Intergovernmental panel on Climate Change), Rev Dr John Polkinghorne (leading Cambridge Physicist and theologian), Prof Ken Miller (Brown University) and many more. The bad news: we're 2 years into the 4-year programme. The good news: you can get the past lectures online, there's still 2 years more to go, and the lectures are at 5.15pm in St Andrews. Each lecture is packed out, lots of people are asking questions - and it's really easy to get your Cell over there.

Rachels Story

“I come from a Catholic family but did not really know God. I became a Christian through Christians Against Poverty at The Gate as I was in a lot of debt.”
