Send a message to “Faith Ignited”

In a time when faith is largely ridiculed and seen as foolish, we often forget that some of the most brilliant people in history had a firm belief in a Divine Creator. This episode discusses a contemporary of Charles Darwin whose name has been lost to the world because he stayed true to his beliefs. The great natural scientist’s life holds a much needed lesson for our day.
