Pascal: Make good people wish Christianity were true

Description

In this video, we explore Blaise Pascal's profound insight that we must make Christianity attractive, echoing J.R.R. Tolkien's perspectives on the power of the Christian story. Pascal's words remind us that to appeal to good men, our faith must resonate with genuine wisdom. The discussion highlights Pascal's famous quote and how his approach serves as a corrective to modern apologetics, emphasizing the importance of addressing emotional barriers before presenting rational arguments.
