Love God, love people, and change the world. We believe the life and lessons of Jesus aren’t just good advice, but are Good News for us here and now.

We are committed to becoming a multi-generational, multi-ethnic, multiplying movement of Christ followers, equipping and empowering our kids and students to not only be the church of tomorrow, but the church of today.

Why Are Bible Sales Up?: Sean McDowell |Episode 285

Why are Bible sales experiencing a surprising 22% surge? Is Western culture becoming spiritually curious again? In this episode of Candid Conversations, Jonathan Youssef welcomes Dr. Sean McDowell—author, speaker, and Biola University professor—to unpack this unexpected trend.
Sean shares insights from his years of engaging the next generation on matters of faith, culture, and apologetics. Together, they explore:
- Why a sharp rise in Bible sales should give us pause—and cautious hope
- How cultural voices like Jordan Peterson and Jonathan Rauch are contributing to renewed interest in Christianity
- Why secularism may be losing momentum among young adults
- How Christians can better engage a spiritually curious culture today—not with confrontation, but with conversation
Drawing on historical shifts, current research, and his experiences equipping students and churches, Sean encourages believers to rethink how we present the gospel in this pivotal moment. Instead of arguing like it's still the era of the "new atheists," it’s time to listen, ask better questions, and meet people in their spiritual hunger.
