Summary

Less than a year after this classic episode aired, Nabeel Qureshi, author of Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus, one of the most compelling accounts of a Muslim’s journey to Christianity, announced he had stage IV stomach cancer. He passed away in September 2017. In this unforgettable episode, Nabeel brings his characteristic warmth and clarity as he engages with Andrew Whyte, a former Christian who lost his faith after wrestling with the wide range of beliefs within the Church. Andrew has since created a series of YouTube videos highlighting theological disagreements among Christians. We hear clips from his videos, while Nabeel offers a passionate response, arguing that Christianity remains cohesive and coherent despite internal differences. Nabeel's book https://amzn.to/4df1bWH
