EPISODE 25 - The Believing Brain: How Iain McGilchrist rediscovered the soul

Youtube Thumbnail Episode 25

A production of Think Faith in partnership with Genexis, and support from The Jerusalem Trust and the Christian Evidence Society.

The Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God podcast with Justin Brierley.

Why did atheist neuroscientist Christoph Koch recently lose a 25-year-old bet on consciousness? Why is 'panpsychism' in fashion? And could the latest research on the brain be pointing us back towards God?
Justin speaks to scientists and philosophers such as Sharon Dirckx and Philip Goff on the surprising turn away from atheist materialism. Ex-atheist Jennifer Fulwiler shares her story of realising love must be more than brain chemistry and influential thinker Iain McGilchrist reveals how a new understanding of the mind is pointing us back to God.
