Summary

The narrative that science and Christianity are enemies is false. Not only are they not enemies but Christianity helped science develop beyond the limits imposed on it by ancient cosmologies. In this sample lesson from her Word on Fire Institute course titled "Science for Evangelists," Dr. Trasancos introduces us to the basics of science and why there is no real conflict between science and Christianity.

Welcome back to the Word on Fire Show. I'm Brandon Vott, the host and Bishop Baron

0:10.2

is not with us this week. If you heard last week's episode, you learned that we're kind

0:14.6

of shifting our release schedule here on the Word on Fire Show. Instead of having a discussion

0:19.6

podcast every week, we're now going to have one every two weeks. So that'll relieve a little

0:24.6

bit of the stress from Bishop Baron and myself. But in the intervening weeks, we're going

0:29.6

to share audio samples from a lot of our Word on Fire Institute courses, Bishop Baron's

0:35.2

study programs, recent talks and lectures Bishop Baron has given. So there'll still be

0:40.2

a huge amount of Word on Fire content coming your way. Today, we share a sample lesson

0:46.3

from a brand new course that just launched in the Word on Fire Institute today. Today's

the debut. The course is titled Science for Evangelists. And it's taught by one of our

Word on Fire Institute fellows, Dr. Stacey Trasenko's. This first lesson is titled Science

was born of Christianity. And in it, Stacey explains how science and Christianity are

1:10.2

not enemies, but that Christianity helped science to get off the ground to develop beyond

1:16.0

the limits imposed on it by ancient cosmologies. Stacey also introduces evangelists to the basics

1:22.3

of science and helps to burst this science versus Christianity myth. So if you've ever

1:28.6

had problems discussing science, if you know loved ones who have left the church because

1:33.3

of science, I think you're really going to enjoy this lesson. But again, it's just sample

1:37.6

lesson one. There are several more lessons in this course. And if you'd like to receive

1:42.4

all of them, you need to join the Word on Fire Institute. I'll say more about it at the

1:47.3

end of this episode. But you can learn more at wordonfire.institute. That's the website

1:53.0
