About this listen

 Many believe that Christianity and science are at odds, that one undermines the other, and that people have to choose only one. But the truth is, science and faith don’t just coexist—they complement each other in profound ways. Science, in its quest for understanding the natural world, often leads us to a greater appreciation for the Creator. The beauty and precision of the universe—its fine-tuned physics—point not away from God, but directly to Him. God can be worshipped not only in the church, but also in the laboratory, as both realms reveal His order and majesty. Throughout history, even figures like Galileo believed that truth found in science supports truth found in scripture. After all, all truth is God’s truth. Whether scientific or religious, truth lives in harmony. How, then, do science and faith coexist? In our humanity, we grasp only a limited piece of the truth, but God’s perspective encompasses all. How do we integrate the two realms in our own understanding? In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Joseph Vukov, a writer, speaker, and Associate Professor of Philosophy at Loyola University Chicago, who explores the intersection of ethics, science, and religion. He’ll share how science can enrich our faith, not diminish it, and how we can love God and science at the same time. Things You’ll Learn In This Episode -God’s POV vs. the human perspective As humans in a fallen world, our understanding of the Universe is limited. Is that why so many people struggle to see the harmony between science and religion? -Faith isn’t sub-rational, it’s supra-rational Some people think the realm of faith exists underneath the realm ruled by science. How does faith go beyond reason and intellect? -The deliberate Godly design behind the science of our Universe The Universe’s design isn’t a case against God’s presence, but rather a strong sign of it. What does the fine-tuning argument reveal about the order of creation? Guest Bio Dr. Joseph Vukov is a writer, speaker, and Associate Professor of Philosophy at Loyola University Chicago. He is also the Associate Director of the Hank Center for the Catholic Intellectual Heritage. Dr. Vukov’s research explores questions at the intersection of ethics and the cognitive sciences, and at the intersection of science and religion.
