No Dark Sky

Does living in a vast universe make humanity less significant? Scott Acton spent more than 20 years helping build the most advanced telescope humanity has ever made. The goal? To see the first stars that ever turned on in our universe. If it works, we’ll be looking more than 13 billion years into the past. If it fails, that’s ten billion dollars down the drain. A lot goes wrong. But here’s the catch: the more we learn about how vast our universe is, the more we risk opening even bigger questions—questions about purpose, questions about whether humanity is significant in a universe this massive. And yet, what this telescope could reveal is something no human eyes have ever seen. Have questions about evolution and Christian faith?

Synapse and the Soul

Is my brain me? Diane Lane is a neuroscientist. She’s spent her life studying the brain—its patterns, its failures, its power to define who we are. But when her mom has a stroke, something essential seems to slip away. The woman she knew is still there—but changed. It forces us to ask: If our brain can so deeply alter us, does it define who we are? We visit a neuroscience lab and hold real human brains in our hands. We meet a man who wants his mind back—and he’s willing to go to extreme lengths to get it. Finally, we wrestle with a haunting question at the edge of science and faith: Are we just the sum of our neurons… or are we something more? Have questions about evolution and Christian faith?

Fault Lines

Am I bad or sick? Lindsay has lived with disordered eating since childhood. She tried everything she could find, but nothing worked. For decades, each failure felt moral—like she was choosing wrong. Then she starts a new medicine, and within 24 hours, the compulsion that shaped her life disappears. If one shot can silence a lifelong impulse overnight, what does that mean about all the years before? Was it a moral failure or a medical condition? We step into the court room with murder trials. We meet a man caught between his faith and his genetics. And we uncover a secret science experiment aimed at making people more virtuous—all to understand where moral choice ends and biology begins.

His cells look nothing like anything they’ve seen before.Nearly a hundred years later, that moment sets the stage for what could become the biggest medical breakthrough in human history—one powerful enough to explain our past, rewrite our future, and spark a battle that reaches the White House.
