I’ve always been a hardcore atheist. In my early 20s, Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens were my role models, and I stood firmly against religion. But after watching Charlie Kirk’s memorial, something shifted. I realized how much of our culture is built on Christian values, and how powerful those values can be for grounding life.
In this video, I share my journey from atheism to exploring Christianity, why I bought *Mere Christianity* by C.S. Lewis, and the story of forgiveness that challenged everything I thought I knew. This is not about suddenly believing in God, but about learning what Christianity can teach us about gratitude, discipline, and moral foundation.
If you’re curious about faith, values, and finding meaning, this is my honest reflection.
