Episode 6: The intersection of science and faith - exploring big questions, with Sarah Moring from God and the Big Bang

The Roots for Churches podcast

May 8 2024 • 33 mins

In this episode, we explore the intersection of faith and science with Sarah Moring from God and the Big Bang (GatBB).  Sarah encourages us to step into the gap between church teaching and the science curriculum to create a place where children and young people can ask their big questions, blending scientific exploration and faith formation.

The episode touches on creation and evolution, with an openness of perspective. How can we bring God our questions and our wondering, and find faith in our understanding of our world?

Roots has partnered with GatBB to create a STEM-themed Roots Holiday Club exploring:

  • Can science support faith in God?
  • Can science answer all our questions?
  • Can faith be based on evidence?
  • Does science make it hard to believe in God?
  • Does science solve all our problems?

Through fun science-based activities, children are encouraged to discover more about faith and science. As well as experiments, discussions, crafts and quizzes, each session features a Bible passage to explore together and tells the story of a significant scientist, such as Mary Anning, in a way that helps to unpack the session theme.
