Kevin Sorbo, known for his roles in Hercules: The Legendary Journeys and God's Not Dead, has aligned himself with John Lennox, a professor emeritus of mathematics at Oxford University, for a documentary project titled Against the Tide: Finding God in an Age of Science. This initiative positions itself as a scientific exploration and defense of Christian faith against prevailing atheistic viewpoints.
The documentary aims to present a case for belief by featuring Lennox's debates and intellectual arguments against prominent figures in the "New Atheist Movement," including Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, Lawrence Krauss, and Peter Atkins. Sorbo reportedly traveled to Great Britain to collaborate with Lennox, who is recognized for his prolific writings on Christianity, atheism, creation, and morality. The film also includes visits to the Holy Land to examine the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Sorbo has spoken of encountering professional difficulties in Hollywood, suggesting that his outspoken Christian faith may have led to him being "booted out." He has participated in public debates with proponents of atheism.
Further online discussions, separate from the Against the Tide project, touch upon themes of spiritual deception and emerging global narratives concerning "non-human intelligence." These conversations, involving figures like Mondo Gonzalez and Alan DiDio, caution believers to remain grounded in scripture amidst what they describe as aligning world events with biblical prophecy. The discussions also reference rising global tensions involving nations such as Israel, Iran, and members of NATO, alongside perceived cultural shifts in the West.
