I've often encountered the argument from christians that if god isn't real or if evolution is true then how can there be morality? [Spirituality & Religion]

I'd like you to think about that question and posit an answer.
Not an insult, not a criticism. Just think about the question from the perspective that god is not real and see if you can think of an answer to how there could still be morality and moral behaviour.

We are all individuals who know how we prefer to be treated. We don’t like to be slandered. We don’t like to be lied to. We like to be treated with kindness and thoughtfulness. We like to be respected. We don’t like to have our things stolen from us. We don’t like to be physically or mentally abused. We also prefer not to be murdered. Now, apply those and our many other preferences to how we want to be treated and assume that everyone else wants the same or similar. It doesn’t take fear of retribution from a god after we die to understand the basics of how to treat each other.
