“You don’t have to throw your brain in the dustbin to be a Christian.” 


Raised in the UK with few Christians around him, Justin Brierly encountered God powerfully at age 15. But later, in the halls of Oxford, doubt crept in. What followed was a deep search for truth that led to a career of asking hard questions and finding better answers. 

His book Why I’m Still a Christian tells that story. It's shaped by conversation, discovery, and a thoughtful pursuit of faith. 
“We all come to life with a worldview… the question is: which one makes better sense?”
