Unbelievable?

Oxford mathematician and Christian apologist John Lennox joins Luke Martin on Unbelievable? The Interview to reflect on his extraordinary life, the rise and fall of New Atheism, and why the big questions have shifted from “science vs faith” to meaning, purpose and the sacred. Lennox discusses his famous debates with Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens and Peter Singer, the renewed cultural interest in Christianity, and why thinkers such as Tom Holland and Iain McGilchrist are helping people reconsider the Christian story. He also shares why he finally wrote his autobiography, My Story, and what he learned from engaging sceptics with grace, and why AI, social media and the hunger for meaning may be among the defining spiritual questions of our age.

What happens when one of the world’s leading geneticists sits down with one of the world’s most influential Christian theologians?
In this special live episode of Unbelievable?, recorded at the Oxford University Museum of Natural History in partnership with the Oxford Pastorate and BioLogos, Dr Francis Collins and N. T. Wright explore some of life’s biggest questions: Can science and faith truly coexist? Has evolution disproved Christianity? What do truth, evidence, morality and human nature tell us about reality? And does scientific discovery point away from God, or deeper towards him?

Francis Collins, former Director of the National Institutes of Health and leader of the Human Genome Project, shares his journey from atheism to Christian faith and explains why his scientific work has never conflicted with belief in God. N. T. "Tom" Wright, host of the Ask NT Wright Anything podcast, brings his expertise as a world-renowned New Testament scholar to questions of Scripture, resurrection, truth, wisdom and the Christian vision of creation.
Together, in a conversation hosted by Rev. Bethan Willis, Oxford Pastorate Chaplain, they address the perceived conflict between evolution and Christianity, the crisis of trust in a post-truth culture, Adam and Eve, radical altruism, consciousness, the soul, and the search for wisdom. The evening concludes with audience Q&A and a surprise musical finale from Collins, Wright and BioLogos’ Jim Stump.

Do we truly have free will, or are our choices determined by biology, upbringing and brain chemistry? In this episode of Unbelievable?, John Nelson hosts a lively philosophical dialogue between Joe Folley, host of Unsolicited Advice, and Dr Nathan Hawkins, a Christian philosopher who teaches at Cambridge. Together they explore libertarian free will, compatibilism and determinism, asking whether neuroscience has disproved human freedom, whether our thoughts are “just brain states”, and whether moral responsibility survives if forces beyond our control shape our choices. Along the way, they discuss Sam Harris, Robert Sapolsky, Alex O’Connor, Libet experiments, Peter Tse, moral blame, racism, brain tumours, pragmatism, idealism and the mystery of human agency. A thoughtful, accessible deep dive into freedom, responsibility and the self.

Dr Joshua Sijuwade, teaching fellow in philosophy at the University of Birmingham, joins Luke Martin for a wide-ranging conversation on God, evil, the Trinity and the atonement. Joshua begins by explaining why he thinks the existence of God is the best explanation for a contingent, non-fundamental universe, and why he favours a fundamentality argument over some popular versions of the Kalam cosmological argument.

He also reflects on his own dramatic conversion experience, his journey into theology and philosophy, and why apologetics still matters in a secular age. Later, Luke and Joshua discuss the problem of evil, the doctrine of the Trinity, whether Jesus is God, Orthodox theology, mystery, language about God, and how Christ’s life, death and resurrection bring reconciliation between humanity and God.

Filmed before a packed live audience at London’s Royal Institution in May 2026, this Unbelievable? x Panpsycast x Theora co-production brings William Lane Craig face-to-face with Unbelievable? regular Alex O’Connor for a gripping conversation on God, cosmology and suffering.
Craig makes the case for Christian theism, drawing on the Kalam cosmological argument, fine-tuning, moral values and the resurrection of Jesus. O’Connor pushes back on whether the universe really had a beginning, pressing Craig on infinity, time, causation and the Big Bang.
The discussion then turns to one of atheism’s most powerful objections: animal suffering. Could a loving God allow millions of years of predation, pain and death?

Hosted by Jack Symes, stepping in for Jonny Thomson after illness.
