59 mins

Episode Description

In this episode of More Christ, I sit down with historian and writer Dr Molly Worthen for a rich and searching conversation about faith, doubt, charisma, authority, and the modern spiritual landscape. Drawing from her deep research into evangelicalism, intellectual life, and the history of belief, Molly helps us understand why people are drawn to gurus, prophets, and charismatic leaders — and how Christians can pursue truth without losing humility, depth, or faithfulness.We explore the challenges facing Christianity today, the hunger for meaning in a disenchanted age, and how the life of the mind can serve — rather than weaken — a living faith in Christ. This is a thoughtful, honest, and deeply انسانی conversation for anyone seeking clarity, wisdom, and deeper roots in the Christian tradition.Learn more about Molly Worthen:Website: https://www.mollyworthen.comAmazon: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Molly-Worthen/author/B001JP3H5OIf this conversation helped you, consider subscribing, sharing, and joining us as we seek the true, the good, and the beautiful in Christ.
