One80

Let us know what you thought of the show!

Raised in Trinidad, Thaddeus Maharaj led a typical Christian life. As career pursuits brought him to Toronto, Thad found himself drawn to the world and away from his faith. He started pursuing apologetics as a way to disprove Christianity and find justification for his life choices. But instead, he discovered compelling arguments that prove Christianity to be truth and was drawn to a fresh faith in Jesus. He is now an apologist and Christian creative with Theotivity, a thoughtful place where theology and creativity come together.
