Rebekah Bennetch lives in Saskatoon, Canada.  She grew up in a Christian family.  Her dad is a pastor, and other family members are involved in Christian ministries.  She professed faith from a young age, went to Bible college, atteneded church and went on mission trips.  But in 2007 she "came out" as an atheist and now describes herself as the "black sheep" of her family.
Sheridan Voysey is a writer, speaker and broadcaster on contemporary spirituality. For many years he presented "Open House", a nationally-syndicated Australian radio show on life, faith and culture.  He now resides in the UK.
They discuss what led Rebekah to abandon her faith, how Christians can best treat their "apostate" friends and family, and what lessons can be learnt for fruitful dialogue between believers and atheists.
