Discovering Truth, Beauty, and Love in Jesus with Gernot Zeilinger

Gernot Zeilinger is our guest on the podcast today! Gernot is an Austrian husband and father of three. He grew up in a Roman Catholic family, but turned towards socialism, atheism, and punk when he was a teen. He shares his story of how his 5-year-old daughter’s questions lead him to investigate Christianity, how he came to finally surrender to God, and how Christianity was set apart from fairytales. They also talk about how the Resurrection is the best explanation, how the Gospel writer’s honesty points to truth, and much more! We hope you enjoy this episode! Gernot has a B.A in International Business Administration as well as a Certificate in Theological Studies from Wycliffe Hall, University of Oxford and a Certificate in Christian Apologetics from the Oxford Centre for Christian Apologetics. He is currently pursuing a Masters in Systematic and Philosophic Theology at the University of Nottingham and has started the process to become ordained in the Lutheran Church in Austria. He is currently working for Campus für Christus (the Austrian subsidiary of CRU) to create an apologetics ministry there named PROFUNDUM, focused on building bridges and dialogue between Christianity and secular perspectives to show the truth and relevance of Christianity for the world. ___________________ We would love to thank our Patrons for all their amazing support!
