Culture often pits faith and science against each other—but as believers, we know they are intentionally and beautifully woven together by our Creator for His people to explore and enjoy. Yet, studies show that by age six, many girls already perceive themselves as less capable in STEM-related fields than boys—a gap that only widens over time. How can we, as parents, counter this message and inspire our daughters to see science as an avenue for both discovery and worship?

In this episode, American Heritage Girls Founder & Executive Director Patti Garibay welcomes back marine biologist, science author, and veteran homeschooling mom Sherri Seligson to explore how faith and science go hand in hand. Sherri shares her journey from studying shark behavior at Walt Disney's Living Seas to equipping families with Biblically grounded science education. She unpacks why engaging in STEM is vital for girls—not just for career opportunities, but for deepening their faith and confidence in God's design.

From overcoming barriers in STEM to cultivating awe through nature, Sherri offers practical encouragement for parents looking to integrate faith and science in their daughters' education. Plus, she gives us a glimpse into her latest book, Wonders of the Ocean Realm, revealing how the intricacies of marine life point directly to the Creator. If you want to encourage your daughter to explore science while strengthening her faith, this episode is for you!
