Series: DOES GOD EXIST?

Episode 2: Who Made God? (And Does It Even Matter?)

Have you ever thought about where everything came from? Like, everything everything? What about God? Who made them? This episode tackles the BIG questions about the universe and its possible creator.

We look at why asking "Who made God?" might be the wrong question entirely! The idea of God as understood in many religions is that God is eternal with no beginning and no end. Pretty hard to wrap our human brains around, right? Instead of focusing on who made God, maybe we should be thinking about what it means that God always existed.

Modern science actually offers evidence that the universe did have a beginning. We unpack the "Surge" arguments, a set of scientific observations that point to the universe having a starting point, and explore what that might mean for the existence of God. Don't worry, we break it down so it's easy to understand.

We'll also look at what some religious texts say about God and eternity, and how those ideas connect to our lives today. Get ready to dive deep and think about life's big questions: What's our purpose? What happens after we die? If God is eternal, does that mean we are too?

This episode will make you think about the universe, God, and your place in it all in a whole new way!
