THINKPOD: Still Not Convinced? (Round 4 With Ethan Micheal)

Joel Settecase is a Christian, and Ethan Micheal is… not. However, their differences in belief have not kept them from having robust conversations about God, knowledge, morality and other big questions of life. And in this episode of the Think Podcast, they are back for round four.

In 2020, Joel Settecase debated Ethan Micheal, AKA “Your Friendly Neighborhood Atheist” on the topic of morality (you can watch that here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wc9i97A-PT4). This led to another conversation on Ethan’s channel about knowledge (here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mymLIvvnrxk), followed by yet another discussion on the Think Podcast (here: https://thethink.institute/.../interview-with-ethan...).

Do you have an interest in spiritual or theological matters? When was the last time you had a thoughtful, theological dialogue with someone who believed very differently from you? Do you have someone in your life with whom you’d like to share the Gospel, but aren’t sure how to bring it up? These would all be good reasons to catch this episode of the Think Podcast with Joel Settecase.

In today’s episode you’ll see a lifelong Christian and a self-professed atheist going head-to-head on why one of them believes in Jesus, and the other doesn’t.

Specifically, you’ll find out…

Whether or not Ethan still considers himself an atheist, and what he means by that term.

Why he chose to make his channel’s anniversary celebration a fundraiser, and how he chose the organization.

If Joel and Ethan can agree on whether there is an “atheistic worldview.”

What it looks like for a Christian and a skeptic to converse together without lobbing insults or throwing stones.

Joel’s guest today is Ethan Micheal, founder of the Your Friendly Neighborhood Atheist YouTube channel and Facebook page, which focuses on “friendly discourse and positive skepticism.”
