Jordan Peterson has spent years wrestling with questions of meaning, faith, and morality. But is his journey leading him to God? In this gripping conversation, Father Calvin Robinson — conservative commentator, Anglican priest, and unapologetic culture warrior — unpacks Peterson’s evolving relationship with Christianity, why it matters for the West, and what it says about our spiritual crisis today.

For decades, Peterson has been the intellectual face of psychology, philosophy, and self-help. Yet behind the lectures on responsibility and truth lies a deeper tension: does the modern world need God to hold society together? Calvin Robinson believes yes — and he’s not afraid to say why.

This discussion digs into the biggest questions of our time:

Why Jordan Peterson struggles openly with belief in God.

How the collapse of Christianity left a dangerous vacuum in Western society.

Why Father Calvin Robinson thinks woke culture and Islam have rushed in to fill the void.

Whether Peterson’s “biblical lectures” are a sign he’s inching closer to faith.

Can an atheist interviewer and a priest find common ground on truth, morality, and meaning?

The cultural stakes couldn’t be higher. Is Western civilisation doomed without a return to Christianity? Is woke ideology really becoming the new state religion? And if Jordan Peterson himself finds God, what would that mean for millions of his followers worldwide?

Robinson argues that Peterson’s intellectual honesty — his refusal to dismiss religion outright — has brought him closer to God than he may realise. But can a man of reason become a man of faith? Or is Peterson destined to remain caught in the middle?
