• 12-14-25- Patience in the In-Between

  The readings for this week for the Third Sunday of Advent are Isaiah 35:1-10, Psalm 146:5-10 or Luke 1:46b-55, James 5:7-10, and Matthew 11:2-11. This week we talk about patience and how that can be difficult. We explore how John the Baptist was still trying to figure out if Jesus was the Messiah—which isn't that much different than where we are with CTE research at the moment. Are we on the right path? Are we looking at the right things? How can we trust what we're seeing is leading us in the right direction? The answers to these questions only come with time and patience to work them out. Thanks again for taking the time to listen, and I hope this is a tool that you find useful. Remember to answer this week's question: Where are you practicing patience during Advent? #FaithandSciPod If you're wanting to hear other podcasts on these texts check out:   12-15-19 - What are We Expecting? 12-11-22 - Don’t be Slow to be Sure!

• 12-7-25 - Be Prepared!

  The readings for this week for the Second Sunday of Advent are Isaiah 11:1-10, Psalm 72:1-7, 18-19, Romans 15:4-13, and Matthew 3:1-12.  This week we talk about the aspect of preparing.  We see this within gardening but we also see it in the process of species that are getting reintroduced to an environment they used to roam.  There is a lot of work and preparation that goes into making the decision to do something like that along with preparing them for such a task.  Are we willing and able to do that with our faith especially in this Advent season?  Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful. Remember to answer this week's question: How do you prepare in Advent? #FaithandSciPod If you're wanting to hear other podcasts on these texts check out:   12-8-19 - Things that Change Everything 12-4-22 - The Need for Hope!

• 11-30-25 - Preparation, Patience, and Peace

  The readings for this week for the First Sunday of Advent are Isaiah 2:1-5, Psalm 122, Romans 13:11-14, and Matthew 24:36-44.  This week we talk about how peace and patience seem to be connected.  We can see in science that there is a need to be patient in order to do good research and we see nature doing the same thing to make sure it is providing for itself well.  Our faith needs to have patience as well in order for us to really know the peace that God can only provide.  Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful.

• 11-23-25 - The God Beyond Our Expectations

  The readings for this week for the Christ the King/ Reign of Christ Sunday are Jeremiah 23:1-6, Luke 1:68-79, or  Psalm 46, with Colossians 1:11-20, and Luke 23:33-43.  This week we talk about species that have been rediscovered after being "extinct".  This is often due to lack of funding or the lack of really knowing the species super well to be able to find them.  This leads us to God surprising us and usually we need to be willing to wonder and explore and see how God shows up in those times.  Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful.

• 11-16-25 - The Wisdom to Say No

  The readings for this week for the Twenty-third Sunday after Pentecost are Isaiah 65:17-25 and Isaiah 12, or Malachi 4:1-2a and Psalm 98, with 2 Thessalonians 3:6-13, and Luke 21:5-19.  This week we look at mirror cells and get some into the debate on if we should go through the process of making them.  It is a good reminder that the effects could be unexpected and thus we need to use wisdom and don't always assume that things will remain that way forever.  When we get caught up in thinking how great we are, this is a good opportunity for us to lose sight of what God is really trying to teach us.  Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful.
