Podcasts about science and faith

For marine biologist, writer, and lay theologian Rachel Jordan, the ocean has never just been a backdrop—it's been a living metaphor for her relationship with God. Raised in a Christian household, Rachel's wonder at tide pools and the mysteries of the deep developed alongside her budding faith. She explains how the intrigue of peering into tiny, brimming tide pools mirrored her fascination with glimpses of God's character: “There was something vast and impressive that laid beyond, that I wanted to explore.” Just as the tide pools hinted at whole worlds awaiting discovery, Rachel found that both faith and science propelled her deeper: “Being a Christian has propelled me further into a desire to understand science ... and being a scientist has, I believe, made me a better Christian.” Rachel may study the ocean's wonders, but her path has been anything but fearless. “I've had this recurring nightmare ... of getting eaten by sharks ... I was just terrified of it,” she confesses. And yet, her marine biology career meant close encounters with those notorious creatures were not just possible, but sometimes necessary. What's remarkable is how God met her in those moments of dread—not by removing the fear, but by transforming it. As she recounts, “The beauty is that God took this thing that I was afraid of and converted it to open-mouthed wonder.” Rachel's transparency normalizes fear as a companion to growth, whether learning to dive or facing daunting new callings. Her encouragement? “It's okay to feel [fear]; it might be something that God uses in your story to do something really big and to show you more of who he is.” Lessons of Grief and Hope from the Coral Reefs Perhaps nowhere does Rachel blend her scientific vocation and spiritual conviction more poignantly than in her stewardship of endangered corals. She describes the “magic castles” of Dry Tortugas National Park—towering, endangered pillar corals—where she devoted herself to preservation efforts. Witnessing the corals' decline from disease was, for Rachel and her fellow scientists, “tragic and deeply impactful.” Yet, as a follower of Christ, Rachel finds hope in the heartbreak. Not only does she grieve in community, but she sees loss through the lens of biblical resurrection. She connects the “white skeleton bony structures” of dead corals to Ezekiel's vision of dry bones: if God can bring those bones to life, can't he also restore coral reefs one day? For Rachel, loss becomes an invitation to hope: “All of creation is eventually going to be restored, remade ... I just wonder what he's going to do next.” Divine Lessons from Buddy Dives and Seahorses Diving, for all its wonder, is fraught with risk, which is why marine biologists always practice “buddy diving”—entrusting their lives to a partner in the depths. For Rachel, this is a living parable: “God is our ultimate dive buddy ... he's not only capable of rescuing us in danger, but he promises to never leave or forsake us.” Other creatures—even a seahorse named Mr. Snuggles—have revealed to her the joy of relationship, not just provision. “I want to, like Mr. Snuggles, draw close to him and just sort of curl up with him and hang out together.” Scripture: A Dive Site Brimming with Life What better metaphor for the Bible, Rachel muses, than a vibrant dive site—unchanging in position but always full of surprise, beauty, and life? “When I read God's word ... there's always something new to discover.” It's a place to keep returning with fresh awe and an explorer's heart. The Deep Calls to Deep Whether or not you'll ever strap on a snorkel, Rachel's conversation is an invitation: to see the world as shot through with the beauty and presence of its Maker, to find him not only in safe harbor but also in the open, sometimes scary waters of life, and to trust that every loss and fear can be met—and even redeemed—by the God who made oceans and corals... and calls each of us out into the deep. MEET RACHEL JORDAN Rachel G. Jordan is a professional marine biologist and lay theologian. A self-professed Jesus-loving coral nerd, she was raised in Idaho and has since traveled the globe chasing her passion for faith and science. She has an MS in marine biology and ecology from James Cook University (Australia), a BS in ecology from Seattle Pacific University (USA), and a certification in biblical studies from Bodenseehof Bible School (Germany). In addition to working as a coral biologist for the US National Park Service, Rachel has worked in marine aquaculture research, organic chemistry laboratories, veterinary research facilities, the pet industry, and a museum. When not diving or writing, she can be found reading C.S. Lewis, growing wildflowers, and exploring creation with her husband.

For marine biologist Rachel Jordan, both science and Scripture are means of knowing creation and Creator. In If the Ocean Has a Soul, Rachel considers the natural world through a spiritual lens, meshing marine biology with biblical truths in a keen and current take on faith and science. With engaging storytelling and deep knowledge of the Bible, she asks and answers questions like: How can Christians reconcile religion and science when the two seem opposed? What do suffering and death teach us about the character of Jesus? How do we care for the environment when there seems to be little hope for repair? What do the ocean and its sea creatures, specifically, reveal about God? In these pages, Rachel recounts fascinating aquatic phenomena alongside the sometimes humorous, sometimes tragic stories of animals she has known. You'll lose yourself in the shadows of an underwater labyrinth; hear spiritual wisdom from a great-grandmother coral the size of a Volkswagen Beetle; and fall in love with Porky, the pudgy porcupinefish greeting visitors at the Windjammer shipwreck. And along the way, you'll see how the promise of restoration unfolds in both physical and spiritual ways. Rachel's thoughtful scientific and theological insights encourage us to know the Creator of the sea and everything in it.

On this episode of ID the Future out of the archive, biologist Ann Gauger walks listeners through the triumphs, flaws, and tragedies of Louis Pasteur, the French scientist whose scientific breakthroughs have saved millions of lives, and whose work on microbes sounded the death knell of the idea of spontaneous generation. Dr. Gauger also discusses his pioneering and life-saving work on vaccines, the Christian faith that saw him through the death of his three of his children, and more. Source

Science is simply the discovery of Hashem's ways, it is part of knowing Hashem. The challenge to faith is not from science but from the secular world view that naturally accompanies it. This secular world view of science and technology originates in the story of the Tower of Babel.Source Sheet

“I managed to divide myself in half. We can let our lives run on parallel tracks, and that is one way people deal with things. But it's not healthy because the trains will collide.”  — Ruth Bancewicz Science and faith professional Ruth Bancewicz joins us on the podcast to discuss the integration of faith and science and the way churches can help. How does a scientist find space to express their faith within their research and teaching? Ruth Bancewicz joins us on the podcast in an interview with guest host and Women Scholars and Professionals Director Karen Guzman. Ruth and Karen sit down together to discuss Ruth's work as a science and faith professional, serving as a thoughtful catalyst for integration at the Faraday Institute for Science and Religion at Cambridge University in England. Ruth describes her journey into this unique position and offers encouragement to women who are working toward more fully integrating their faith with their work life — and encountering struggles along the way.

Today, Fr. Gale brings on Sophia Schmidt, a life-long scientist in the making, to discuss how science brings her to a closer understanding of God.

Modern culture often portrays faith and science as being in conflict, but this is a false dichotomy. The Bible is not a science textbook, nor does it claim to be, but it speaks truthfully when it addresses the natural world. Its primary purpose is to reveal God's character and redemptive plan, not to provide a technical manual on physics or biology. However, modern science exists precisely because of the Christian worldview, which teaches that the universe is rational, orderly, and governed by consistent laws that human reason can discover. Join me and Jay Seegert in this upcoming episode of the Bold Apologia Podcast as we explore why Christianity is not an enemy of science but its very foundation.For More of Jay Seegert's Content: https://www.thestartingpointproject.com/

This sermon excerpt from Jim West discusses the pervasive biblical illiteracy in modern American culture. He argues that a lack of biblical understanding contributes to many societal problems and proposes a multi-year study of Genesis as a foundational solution. West addresses questions about the book's authorship, historical accuracy, and compatibility with science, emphasizing the importance of Genesis as a truthful account of creation and humanity's relationship with God. He contends that understanding Genesis is crucial for comprehending the Gospel message and sharing it effectively. Finally, he calls for compassion and outreach to those unfamiliar with a biblical worldview.Support the showThanks for listening! Follow us on Facebook or Instagram more info colonialkc.org

Send us a textIn this eye-opening episode of the Elim Church Podcast, we invite you to explore the intersection of science and spirituality through the thought-provoking insights of our guest speaker, Roy. Boldly challenging the conventional old creation theory, Roy proposes the young Earth theory, advocating for a universe that is just 6,000 years old. He offers a fresh perspective on biblical creation interpretation, arguing that we must separate the infallibility of scripture from the interpretative side notes found in the Schofield Bible. By focusing on the original scriptural text and its deeper meaning, Roy encourages listeners to reconsider how we read the Bible, especially when it comes to understanding Genesis and the world around us.Roy dives into the plasma soup that existed when the Spirit of God hovered over the waters in Genesis 1. He offers compelling evidence that this concept may support a young Earth narrative, reinforcing the idea that creation, as described in the Bible, could be far more recent than mainstream scientific theories suggest. This opens the door to a radical reevaluation of how we engage with both science and faith.The conversation expands into the profound transformations that occurred following the Fall of Adam and Eve, which were not confined to the spiritual realm alone. Roy explores how these shifts fundamentally altered creation, from the rise of predators to the curse of weeds, and the pain of childbirth that became a part of human experience. These changes serve as a powerful reminder of the lasting effects of sin on both the physical world and spiritual realm, which leads Roy to ask us to consider the impact of humanity's fall from both a scientific and biblical perspective.Roy introduces an intriguing theory regarding the pre-flood Earth and the concept of a water canopy that once surrounded the planet. He suggests this canopy could have played a significant role in Earth's climate, life expectancy, and the conditions of early creation. When the flood destroyed this canopy, it forever altered the Earth, reshaping its ecosystems and atmosphere. Roy encourages us to reflect on how these spiritual and physical transformations are intricately linked, providing a comprehensive view of biblical and scientific events.As the conversation turns toward the cosmos, Roy explores how spiritual influences might extend beyond Earth, reaching as far as other planets. He points to cosmic scars visible in Saturn's rings and the moon's pockmarked surface as potential evidence of the distant repercussions of humanity's fall. What can these celestial marks tell us about the history of creation and our role within it? Roy proposes that the discovery of a fifth force of nature could help unravel these mysteries, offering new insights into the creation's ultimate design and purpose.The discussion also touches on the Nephilim and other celestial beings that interacted with humanity in both the Old and New Testaments. Roy sheds light on how these beings might have influenced the physical world, and what this means for our understanding of spiritual breaches. Through these biblical stories, we learn about the legal rights that permit spiritual beings to manifest in the physical realm. Roy underscores the importance of physical presence in enabling spiritual influence, highlighting the ongoing tension between these two realms throughout history.In the final segment, the conversation pivots to the future and biblical prophecy, especially the coming of the Antichrist. Roy discusses how these end-time events, as described in eschatology, could unfold, urging listeners to stay vigilant and aware of the signs of the times.

Are science and belief in God incompatible? Dr. Francis S. Collins, renowned for having led the Human Genome Project and the former Director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), says science and faith are two different ways of understanding God's creation.   We dove right in and had so much to explore! His father's folk music collection that is a true national treasure;  Connecting music with the mysteries of the universe both as a scientist and a person of faith;  An encounter with a heart patient that led Dr. Collins to his faith in Christ;  How he got the job to lead the Human Genome Project (no, it wasn't an answer to an ad on Craigslist);  Leading the NIH during a worldwide pandemic;  The ongoing harrassment and even death threats he and his colleagues at NIH have had to endure;  Struggling to understand the emergence of the anti-vax movement;  Nurturing relationships with folks who hold very different views such as the late Christopher Hitchens;  The BioLogos Foundation;  And the most interesting book club in the world!   Dr. Francis Collins is the former director of the National Institutes of Health. And was the longest serving director of NIH — spanning 12 years and three (very different) presidencies. Dr. Collins is a physician-geneticist noted for his landmark discoveries of disease genes and his leadership of the international Human Genome Project, which culminated in April 2003 with the completion of a finished sequence of the human DNA instruction book. Dr. Collins' research laboratory has discovered a number of important genes, including those responsible for cystic fibrosis, Huntington's disease, a familial endocrine cancer syndrome and, most recently, genes for type 2 diabetes among others.

Many people feel like they have to choose between science and faith. But do they really? What is the history of science and faith, and when did this supposed conflict start? Joseph Holmes and Nathan Clarkson welcome author and scholar Dr. Spencer Klavan to discuss this topic and Klavan's new book on the subject "Light of the Mind, Light of the World.

Cambridge educated Dr. Sharon Dirckx was raised in a secular culture where religion played a minimal role. Intellectual authorities led her to believe that science and belief in God were incompatible until she began investigating the verifiable claims of Christianity. She came to see that a robust, intellectually grounded faith was possible. Sharon's Resources: Website: www.dirckx.org Books: Broken Planet Am I Just My Brain? Why?

Ever wondered how a biblical worldview can shape your life and deepen your faith? In this episode, Pastor Ken Senchal dives into what it means to have a worldview rooted in God's truth. He explores how understanding our perspective—and those of others—can help us live a life that glorifies God and spreads His love. - Understanding Worldviews: Your worldview shapes how you see the world. Pastor Ken breaks down the key elements of a biblical worldview—God-centered, creation-oriented, and grounded in the truth of salvation through Christ. This worldview defines our purpose as glorifying God and living out His commands. - Embracing the Fullness of God's Word: We're reminded that following God's Word means embracing all of it, not just the parts that are convenient. Acts 20:27 calls us to accept the whole counsel of God. - Engaging with Other Worldviews: Pastor Ken takes us through different worldviews, explaining how understanding them can help us share the hope of Jesus with gentleness and respect, as instructed in 1 Peter 3:15. -Science and Faith in Harmony: Did you know that science can actually deepen your faith? Listen as Pastor Ken discusses how leading Christian scientists view the harmony between science and a biblical worldview, pointing to an intelligent Designer behind the universe. - Why the Bible Can Be Trusted: Romans 1:18-20 is our anchor as we explore the reliability and transformative power of Scripture. Pastor Ken explains why the Bible is the ultimate guide to life's biggest questions. A biblical worldview offers answers and comfort, especially in life's toughest moments. Tune in to discover how you can live out a worldview rooted in God's truth, finding hope and purpose through Jesus Christ. ---

Science and religion rely on faith and reasoning; both test hypotheses about life and the afterlife through lifelong experiments. Disparaging either is arrogant exaggeration; humility about the limits of knowledge is needed.

Today on Spiritual Brain Surgery, Leanne Ellington Takes Over the Mic Again!Leanne Ellington has an incredible story of chasing healing through silence, and finding God in the process. In her own words, she describes her faith journey:Picture this: a skeptical, bacon-loving, Hebrew-speaking Jew, embarking on a quest to explore faith after a transformative 100-pound weight loss and a series of "quarter-life crisis".It began with a whisper in my heart: "I think I might want God?!" But not wanting to go back to the old days of temple and rabbi sermons, I found a non-denominational church in vibrant Nashville, TN that turned into a miraculous journey that filled a void in my spiritual landscape and met ME in my skepticism, doubt, and curiosity in all aspects of life.All of a sudden this "God guy" that everyone ELSE was talking about that I had never met, and frankly never cared to meet…...suddenly appeared to ME --and revealed, completed, and healed parts of my story I didn't even know needed attention.Leanne has two incredible podcasts, What's God Got to Do With It? and Outweigh. She is an online coach and guide into applying neuroscience and faith to healing from body image and self-esteem issues, and we had an incredible talk. Today, Leanne takes over the podcast for part two of her two-part journey into faith, healing, and hope. Leave a voicemail with your question or comment!Five Ways You Can Support this show:Pray for us!Subscribe, like, and share it with your friends!

The idea that Christianity and science are inextricably in conflict is a relatively recent conception. However, with each new scientific discovery and scriptural insight, it’s an idea that’s being proved to be insupportable. Our guest has immersed himself in both science and faith and knows they work beautifully together to sing of the greatness of God. He will examine modern scientific concepts and what they can teach us about theological truths, such as the dual nature of Christ. Following the path of Christ and holding a scientific worldview at the same time is not only possible but also leads to a fuller, richer life of harmony and truth.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Are science and belief in God incompatible? Dr. Francis S. Collins, renowned for having led the Human Genome Project and the former Director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), says science and faith are two different ways of understanding God's creation.   We dove right in and had so much to explore! His father's folk music collection that is a true national treasure;  Connecting music with the mysteries of the universe both as a scientist and a person of faith;  An encounter with a heart patient that led Dr. Collins to his faith in Christ;  How he got the job to lead the Human Genome Project (no, it wasn't an answer to an ad on Craigslist);  Leading the NIH during a worldwide pandemic;  The ongoing harrassment and even death threats he and his colleagues at NIH have had to endure;  Struggling to understand the emergence of the anti-vax movement;  Nurturing relationships with folks who hold very different views such as the late Christopher Hitchens;  The BioLogos Foundation;  And the most interesting book club in the world!   Dr. Francis Collins is the former director of the National Institutes of Health. And was the longest serving director of NIH — spanning 12 years and three (very different) presidencies. Dr. Collins is a physician-geneticist noted for his landmark discoveries of disease genes and his leadership of the international Human Genome Project, which culminated in April 2003 with the completion of a finished sequence of the human DNA instruction book. Dr. Collins' research laboratory has discovered a number of important genes, including those responsible for cystic fibrosis, Huntington's disease, a familial endocrine cancer syndrome and, most recently, genes for type 2 diabetes among others. Dr. Collins was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom in November 2007 and the National Medal of Science in 2009.   It would mean so much if you could leave us a review on Apple Podcasts:  https://bit.ly/TPandRPod   Talkin' Politics & Religion Without Killin' Each Other is part of The Democracy Group, a network of podcasts that examines what's broken in our democracy and how we can work together to fix it.   Please support our wonderful sponsor Meza Wealth Management: www.mezawealth.com   And you can find Corey on all the socials @coreysnathan such as www.threads.net/@coreysnathan.   biologos.org/

Listen, when I tell you to buckle up and get ready for today's episode, I'm not joking. I was not prepared for the dropkick Dr. Anita Phillips laid down. The subject matter of today's episode will not be unfamiliar to you, because it is my core message, too. But today, Dr. Anita Phillips, a licensed trauma therapist, is here to talk about what's missing in the mental health conversation, why science and faith are not in conflict, why we have to stop demonizing emotions, and how to heal the nervous system. What she's about to lay out will be a repudiation of the self-help, self-healing messaging so prevalent in culture. And do you know something? I'm here for it.
