"Dying While Atheist" with Dave Warnock

Unreasonable

What would you do if you knew your days were numbered?

In 2019 Dave Warnock, one-time charismatic evangelical preacher now-atheist, was diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. ALS is a fatal condition, and with his diagnosis Dave had a choice to make: live out the rest of his life quietly waiting to die, or “live out loud.” That meant speaking publicly about his spiritual deconstruction, his disease, and dying without a belief in a god or an afterlife.

Trigger warning: this conversation speaks frankly about death. We are grateful for the opportunity to share Dave’s story with you, and for the time he gave us for this interview that we promise will move and challenge you.
