Why Think That?

Listen for free

Why Think That? is a podcast about the ideas beneath our ideas.

Each episode explores how people come to believe what they believe, touching on topics like philosophy, science, meaning, technology, morality, truth, God, and the world we’re all trying to make sense of. The show aims to slow down to examine the assumptions, experiences, histories, and frameworks that shape why someone thinks what they do.

Hosted by Justin Bailey, whose own shifting beliefs led to a deep interest in how people come to think the way they do, the podcast sits at the intersection of philosophy, faith, science, culture, and emerging technology. Conversations range from deeply personal to rigorously intellectual, often both at once.

At its core, this podcast is about learning to think more clearly, more honestly, and more generously, while rediscovering the wonder that lives just beneath the question, Why Think That?

  • Why a Christian Scientist Became a Baptist Pastor
    Feb 7 2026

    In this conversation, I sit down with Dr. David Anderson (my uncle) to trace a winding faith journey that runs from Christian Science into evangelical Christianity—and to slow down over what gets gained, lost, and reshaped along the way. We talk about conversion stories and pastoral callings, but also about intelligence, formation, family influence, and how early frameworks quietly shape what we later call “faith.” Dave reflects on his dramatic shift in belief, the role prayer has played in his life, and how he understands God’s action without flattening mystery into slogans. Along the way, we wrestle with salvation, denominational boundaries, and the modern church’s tendency to confuse certainty with depth. It’s less a testimony episode and more an honest attempt to think carefully about how faith actually forms—and what it costs to take it seriously over time.
