  • Applauds Science & The Cross

    This podcast is a breath of fresh air for those in the Christian fold who wish to engage in science and/or disciplines informed by science. Helps keep me centred when I am discouraged by, at times, the appalling lack of understanding or willingness to engage in environmental, medical, or other scientific topics that one commonly encounters with evangelicals. Keep up the great work.

  • Excellent, Timely, and Informative

    Thank you for your discussions and interviews regarding science and faith. As a Christ follower who believes in science, I'm very disillusioned by what the American (white) conservative evangelical subculture (of which I was a part for 35 years) has become and how there's been so much extremist politics and denial of good science, like with vaccines and the need to combat climate change. Your program and organization are greatly needed.

  • So this is Christmas

    Thank you for your sharing. I was just talking to God before I listened to your podcast this morning and telling him how very joyful I am about Christmas how disappointed I am and the wars and how people behave and just the world we live in. I kind of want out I’m impatient for him to come downright cynical and mad. I'm tired of trying every year to feel joyful to really try to warm up and since reaction to the birth of the savior, the emotions aren't there this year other than the sadness so t... more

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

203. Sabrina Little | Run in Such A Way
Q: How do carbon-plated shoes raise ethical concerns in sport?
They offer measurable performance gains, which can change competitive dynamics, raise questions about fairness, and risk privileging those with access to expensive gear, thereby challenging the spirit of sport.
203. Sabrina Little | Run in Such A Way
Q: What makes running uniquely suited to exploring virtue and character development?
Distance running embodies perseverance, patience, and emotional self-control in tangible ways, turning the athlete's internal dialogue into observable habit formation that translates beyond sport into everyday life.
197. Rebecca Copeland | Wicked Problems and Unoriginal Sin
Q: What first step would you recommend to someone who wants to do better regarding wicked problems?
Start with one concrete action in your life and combine it with learning about the broader issues and communities working on those problems.
197. Rebecca Copeland | Wicked Problems and Unoriginal Sin
Q: How do you think science plays a role in the work of repentance, particularly for unoriginal sins?
Science can help us understand the impacts of our actions and the interconnectedness of the issues we face, thus amplifying our efforts in addressing unoriginal sins.
108. Debra Rienstra | The Discipline of Hope
Q: What can individuals do to address environmental concerns?
Engaging in personal little work like finding local ecological issues to address creates a network of actions that can scale up and connect with others' efforts.
