Under the Streetlights

In Under the Streetlights, a former atheist shares his journey of asking tough questions, pondering the purpose of life, and ultimately stumbling toward faith in God. Having been raised in an atheist home, science functioned as more than a discipline for Matt Deisen; it was his religion. He had faith in the scientific method, but faith in God was a foreign thing, a strange thing, even a dangerous thing.

He was raised, like so many in his generation, to view religion with tolerant skepticism and respectful disbelief. But Matt had questions. How could you possibly know if God truly exists? How can you follow someone you cant see? And why do you need to go sit in a building or join a religious club in order to find Him?

In his early years, Matt wanted Christians to fail in their faith, to wake up from their delusions, and come back to reality. And then something happened.

Under the Streetlights follows Matt on his journey of questioning what we have taken for granted, thirsting for something deeper, and ultimately finding what each of us in our own way is longing to find... an unshakable belief in something greater than ourselves.
