The Russell Moore Show

Science, Skepticism, and Wisdom


Listen Later

Science should be a quest to discover truth. Christian faith means following the one who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

This pair of facts defines the life and work of this episode’s guest, former director of the National Institutes of Health, Francis Collins. He and Moore discuss COVID-19, conspiracies, and the creator God. Their conversation draws upon Collins’ new book, The Road to Wisdom, and highlights Christian hope for perspective amidst polarization. Collins and Moore also talk about Artificial Intelligence, the power of the Sermon on the Mount, and their common friend, the late Tim Keller.
