Meet the Host

Somebody Who's
Actually Asked
These Questions

Your host brings years of navigating the intersection of faith, reason, and real life — not from a seminary pulpit, but from the kind of honest doubt that leads somewhere. Trained in science, rooted in the Reasons to Believe tradition, and deeply committed to the next generation.

No gatekeeping, no jargon. Just someone who took the hard questions seriously and came out with something worth sharing.

What We Cover

Questions We Actually Answer

The Big Bang, fine-tuning, and what the universe's origin says about everything.

Philosophy

Evil, consciousness, free will — the ones we lose sleep over.

Scripture

Ancient texts, modern critique, and why it still matters.

Mind & Soul

What neuroscience can and can't tell us about who we are.

Culture

Faith in the public square — how it all connects to real life right now.

      
      Why This Podcast Exists

"The questions haven't changed. The conversation has to."

Reasons to Believe has been at the intersection of science and faith since 1986. But a new generation is asking the same ancient questions in fresh ways — through podcasts, not pews. The Shift meets them there. Rooted in RTB scholarship, built for the scroll-and-stream era.
