Betting on Pascal

About this Episode

In this episode we delve into theologian Graham Tomlin’s thought-provoking article, “Blaise Pascal is Haunting Our Unbelieving Age.” With the modern world increasingly defined by skepticism and a crisis of meaning, we explore how Pascal’s insights—his Pensées, his famous wager, and his reflections on faith and reason—speak powerfully to our contemporary moment. How does a 17th-century polymath continue to shape our understanding of belief and doubt? And why does his voice seem more urgent than ever? Join us as we unpack Pascal’s enduring influence in a world searching for certainty.
