In this special live episode of Unbelievable?, recorded at the Oxford University Museum of Natural History in partnership with the Oxford Pastorate and BioLogos, Dr Francis Collins and N. T. Wright explore some of life’s biggest questions: Can science and faith truly coexist? Has evolution disproved Christianity? What do truth, evidence, morality and human nature tell us about reality?

Francis Collins, former Director of the National Institutes of Health and leader of the Human Genome Project, shares his journey from atheism to Christian faith and explains why his scientific work has never conflicted with belief in God. N. T. "Tom" Wright, host of the Ask NT Wright Anything podcast, brings his expertise as a world-renowned New Testament scholar to questions of Scripture, resurrection, truth, wisdom and the Christian vision of creation.
Together, in a conversation hosted by Rev. Dr. Bethan Willis, Oxford Pastorate Chaplain, they address the perceived conflict between evolution and Christianity, the crisis of trust in a post-truth culture, Adam and Eve, radical altruism, consciousness, the soul, and the search for wisdom. The evening concludes with audience Q&A and a surprise musical finale from Collins, Wright and BioLogos’ Jim Stump.
