There's no need for God.
For ancient conservatives. For unthinking traditionalists.
No need for faith or religion.
We're imagining a better world. With freedom at its core.
Freedom to choose who we are or want to be.
Freedom to pursue whatever matters most inside.
Why bother with God?
Week 1
Is God
unlovable?
From a distance God seems oppressive. Up close God feels intense.
How can people say that his character is an expression of pure love?
Week 2
Is God unrelatable?
Reading ancient books. Praying invisible prayers. Gathering in historic buildings.
Why is it so hard to feel a personal connection with God?
Week 3
Is God unknowable?
Scientists and academics haven’t discovered God. Religions disagree. And I haven't seen him.
How can I be confident God exists?
