Although the number of nones in the USA has flatlined in recent years, deconstruction is still on the mind of many young people. This week a Christian apologist - raised without any religion, and a Christian who moved to agnostic atheism debate how we can reengage young people.

Joining the Unbelievable debate is former atheist Mary Jo Sharp from the Pacific Northwest, A former atheist who came to faith,has experienced two worlds of American culture: growing up in the postmodern Pacific Northwest and then adulthood in the evangelical culture of the Southern Bible Belt. She first encountered apologetics in her own spiritual search while seeking answers, eventually becoming a professor of apologetics. Mary Jo is now the founder and director of Confident Christianity Apologetics Ministry. She has been featured in Christianity Today’s cover story “The Unexpected Defenders” and is an international author and speaker. Mary Jo's most recent written work is, Why I Still Believe: A former atheist's reckoning with the bad reputation Christians give a good God.

Harry Amos is a graduate in Philosophy, Politics & Economics from the University of Warwick. During his studies, his passion for investigating Biblical texts, particularly the historicity of key events like the Exodus, Conquest and Easter narratives, led him to reconsider his Christian faith. Having personally found reconciliation between history, science and evangelical Christianity impossible, he now blogs on such topics at The Book of Amos (thebookofamos.wordpress.com).
