Atheist turns into Apologist - What is YOUR calling? Doug Powell Interview - Full Unedited
Doug Powell’s Wild Journey | The Revo Report
Description:
Welcome to The Revo Report with Vince Revo, where we inspire faith with reason and reason with faith! In this episode, we dive deep with Doug Powell—an apologist, former musician, novelist, and expert on the Shroud of Turin. From his Damascus Road-like conversion as a teen atheist to uncovering ancient relics, Doug’s story is a rollercoaster of faith, creativity, and discovery.
Doug opens up about his unexpected encounter with God, which flipped his life from atheism to unshakable belief. He shares why he keeps the details private—not to mystify, but to focus on what matters: objective truth. A former recording artist who jammed with legends like Alan Parsons and Tommy Shaw, Doug traded the stage for a higher calling after music opportunities faded. His creative spark didn’t dim—it ignited a new passion: writing archaeological novels that blend real history with gripping stories, like a truthful twist on The Da Vinci Code.
We geek out over his adventures, from witnessing ancient Bible fragments pulled from mummy masks to researching the Shroud of Turin and the Sudarium of Oviedo—artifacts he believes could be Jesus’ burial cloths. Doug’s postgraduate work in Rome and pilgrimage to Mount Athos (a men-only monastic peninsula in Greece) reveal jaw-dropping details: blood stains matching across centuries, pollen tracing a relic’s journey, and a shroud image science can’t replicate. Could a burst of light at the resurrection have burned that negative into linen? Doug unpacks the evidence, leaving us with goosebumps.
As a presuppositionalist, Doug argues Christianity isn’t just the best worldview—it’s the only coherent one. He tackles skepticism, the problem of evil, and how churches can equip believers to engage a doubting world. Reflecting on his shift from music to ministry, he offers wisdom for young Christians: your calling isn’t your identity—God is.
