How Science and Theology Began in Christian Institutions

Modern science first blossomed within Christian universities, where young theologians and believers like Isaac Newton and Copernicus laid the groundwork for what we now understand as scientific inquiry. In these early academic settings, the church held strong authority over scientific research, often resulting in tensions and disciplinary actions if findings contradicted religious doctrine. This historical backdrop sets the stage for the modern perception of conflict between science and theology. However, as our understanding evolves, so does the relationship between these two fields. In our latest episode, Martin Hanna emphasizes that the same God who reveals himself in the Bible also reveals himself in nature, advocating for a harmonious dialogue between science and faith. Tune into this conversation with us on Church Talk with Dr. Joe Kidder, hear how we can embrace true science without feeling threatened and learn how both realms can complement each other in the pursuit of knowledge.
