I interviewed John Lennox, the Oxford mathematician who's spent decades bridging science and faith. We talked about why John 1:1 reveals we live in a word-based universe, how to recognize God-breathed scripture, why scientific explanations don't exclude God, and his fascinating take on AI as humanity's attempt to "make God." He also shared practical writing advice about self-criticism and why young people struggle with metaphors. If you're curious about how faith and reason work together, or worried about what AI means for humanity's future, this conversation will challenge how you think about both. Enjoy! 00:00:00 Why John 1:1 Reveals a Word-Based Universe 00:09:30 How to Know Scripture Is God-Breathed 00:17:40 Why Scientific Explanations Don't Exclude God 00:23:24 Why Style Is As Important As Substance 00:29:29 How to Balance Argument and Self-Criticism 00:33:35 How Narrow vs General AI Create Different Risks 00:41:40 Why the AI Race Is About Making God 00:46:02 How AI Changes What It Means to Be Human 00:52:47 How Christians Can Lead in AI Ethics

Hey! I’m David Perell and I’m a writer, teacher, and podcaster. I believe writing online is one of the biggest opportunities in the world today. For the first time in human history, everybody can freely share their ideas with a global audience. I seek to help as many people publish their writing online as possible.
