The Importance of the Christian Story

The conversation explores the significance of the Christian story and the question of whether it matters if it's true. Douglas Murray raises the possibility of keeping the benefits of the story without believing in its truth, but acknowledges the temptation to follow this idea. N.T. Wright emphasizes that Christianity is centered around Jesus, and without his crucifixion and resurrection, the faith would lose its meaning and effectiveness. He argues that the story of Jesus going to the cross encompasses and gives sense to other key aspects of the Christian faith.
