Do you believe science has its roots in Christian thought?  In this episode, Gabe talks with Dr. Denis Alexander, Emeritus Director of The Faraday Institute for Science and Religion and Emeritus Fellow of St Edmund's College, Cambridge.  They discuss what science can and can’t tell us. They also discuss Dr. Alexander’s books, including his latest, Coming to Faith Through Dawkins, which is a compilation of the faith journeys of 12 men and women from different backgrounds who all reached the same conclusion: that Christianity is more intellectually undeniable than New Atheism.  Listen in as they highlight a few of these stories and how Christian theology dispels even the strongest arguments New Atheism makes.
