Science Points to the Ultimate Designer with Melissa Cain Travis

from Finding Something Real Podcast · host Janell Wood

This is the seventh episode in a series of episodes dedicated to a young woman named Lizzy. Today we're talking with special guest, Melissa Cain Travis, a fellow of the Discovery Institute's Center for Science and Culture. Lizzy is a college student from Chelan, Washington. Lizzy grew up in a loving Christian home but has a lot of questions about God, identity, and purpose. She is a very curious person and is someone who often takes things literally. She admits she struggles with anxiety and wonders why God pursues her when it's hard for her to trust Him. She says she's sensed Him trying to get her attention but is unsure about having experienced His love. Lizzy and Janell have known each other for seven years.    About Melissa Cain Travis, Ph.D. Melissa Cain Travis is a science and religion scholar with a special interest in the intersection of science and Christianity in the Western tradition.
