"Christians Are Boring Because They're Afraid": N.D. Wilson Gets Real

About this episode

What if Christians were called to be the flood instead of hiding in the ark? N.D. Wilson challenges believers to stop playing it safe and embrace a faith that's dangerously alive. Robert speaks with Wilson about his journey as a writer inspired by C.S. Lewis and Tolkien, his approach to Christian fantasy writing, and his belief that Christians should embrace wonder rather than fear. Wilson shares insights on raising children to be confident in their faith, creating joyful Sabbath traditions, and his work on nature documentaries like "Riot and the Dance" that present creation from a Christian perspective.
