Exclusive interview with Michael Ramsden

“If you live in the Western world and believe in any religion, let alone if you’re a Christian, you can’t help but feel that the people around you are questioning your sanity, your goodness, and everything else,” says Michael Ramsden.

 
In this exclusive podcast, ahead of this week’s Catalyst Live events, Michael speaks on the growing need for Christian apologetics in a world where belief is constantly questioned, the kind of apologetic answers that are most helpful and why he’s looking forward to Catalyst Live. Listen to the interview here:

“What I’m hoping is that Catalyst Live is going to be able to bring something that both gives us a fresh vision for the world around us and for how the gospel can engage and change that world as well,” he says.

Michael is the Regional Director of RZIM (http://www.rzim.org/) for Europe, the Middle East and Africa and is also a joint Director of the Oxford Centre for Christian Apologetics. He is one of many fascinating speakers who will be at Catalyst Live in Manchester on 27 November.
