The event is being held at the Excel Centre in London on Saturday 13th March from 10.15am until 4pm (doors open at 9.15am).

Here’s the pitch: “‘The God Confusion’ is a sensational chance, for sceptics and Christians alike, to clear the fog around God…World-class speakers Tim Keller (New York), Al Stewart (Sydney) and Rico Tice (London), a variety of fascinating interviews, films and musical items, short but informative lunch-time seminar options facing current challenges to faith like ‘Science’ and ‘Suffering’ and the thrill of thousands singing God’s praise – ‘The God Confusion’ promises to be an unforgettable experience.”

A standard ticket costs £30.00 for the day (£25.00 for concessions) and are available from The Good Book Company.
