    Does Science Prove God Exists?

    Leaders in the New Atheist movement have always made the claim that God doesn’t that science explains everything. However, as we progress in our knowledge of the natural world, the evidence for an intelligent, all-powerful creator also becomes greater. In this new installment of Stunned by Scripture, Dr. Bergsma takes on this atheist belief by examining the science. In this episode Dr. Bergsma unpacks cosmic fine-tuning, exploring how the cosmic constants of the universe provide strong evidence for the existence of God. Science does not contradict Scripture or the existence of God, but rather proves it.  ✨ Want the Ignatius Catholic Study Bible for FREE?

    How I Was Stunned By Scripture

    In this first episode of his new podcast, Stunned by Scripture, Dr. John Bergsma invites us into his journey from Protestantism to Catholicism. Having grown up in a Dutch Calvinist home, Bergsma began his career as a pastor only to come face-to-face with the weaknesses of the various Protestant theologies. Today he shares how his struggles with sola Scriptura and sola fide challenged his core beliefs, setting him on a path that led inevitably into the Catholic Church. Like him, you will be stunned by the enduring Catholic truths present in the Scriptures. ✨ Want the Ignatius Catholic Study Bible for FREE?
