Wired For Truth: Autism and Unshakeable Faith Through Heartbreak with Nick Peters
Can a good God allow a life to be shattered by divorce?
Today, Christian apologist Nick Peters (PhD candidate) opens up about the intersection of faith, autism, and the trauma of a failed marriage.
If you’ve ever felt like your pain was too great for "Sunday School answers," this conversation is for you. We dive deep into why Nick continues to trust the "data" of the Gospel even when his heart feels crushed, and how he navigates the world as a neurodivergent scholar.
