Episode 212: Why Believe? [Part 2] with Author and Theoretical Chemist Neil Shenvi

How do we know that what we believe about Christianity is true? Our guest again this week, author, apologist, and theoretical chemist Neil Shenvi gives us some helpful and insightful ways to give a defense to those who ask of us how we know our faith in Christ is true. We continue to discuss his 2022 book, Why Believe? A Reasoned Approach to Christianity.

He became a Christian in Berkeley, CA where he did his PhD in Theoretical Chemistry at U.C.

In 2015, he quit his job at Duke to homeschool his four children, He presently serves as the principal of the South Durham Academy for Math and Science (also known as Daddy Academy).
