The Christian & Atheist 'Faith Swap' - Unbelievable?
Playback speed
Two friends, Bentley Browning (the Christian) and Simon Capes (the atheist) are both comics. They tell Justin about the religious role reversal they are undertaking and why they decided to do it. Bentley will be stopping prayer, Bible reading and going to church, while Simon will be taking them all up.
We also hear from Jake Warren an atheist who made a film about living with evangelical Christians, and Heather Tomlinson a journalist who became a Christian from a secular background.
