Welcome to this week’s Unbelievable? Podcast! 🎙️ Today, we dive into some profound and challenging questions surrounding the concept of truth in our modern, post-truth world 🌍. Recorded live, this episode features an engaging debate between two distinguished scholars: Kristi Mair 📚, Apologist, Author, and Lecturer at Oak Hill Seminary, who is completing her PhD in Philosophical Theology, and Shaun Stevenson 🧠, a Lecturer in Philosophy at MMU with a particular interest in the philosophy of death.

Together, Kristi and Shaun explore deep questions such as:
🔍 What is truth in a post-truth society?
⚖️ Is there such a thing as absolute or objective truth?
🧐 Why is the debate about truth so crucial in today’s world?
🗣️ Can "my truth" be trustworthy?
✝️ What unique perspectives does Christianity offer on these tough questions?

This episode is divided into two parts. In the first, our debaters tackle these deep and often controversial topics from their unique academic perspectives. The second part features a lively Q&A session with our young audience 🎤, where attendees pose challenging questions, pushing the discussion even further.

Join us for a thought-provoking conversation that delves into the essence of truth, its role in our lives, and how we can discern what is 'true' in a world where the concept of truth is increasingly questioned. 🤔
