I’m thrilled to have Melissa Cain Travis as our guest on today’s episode. Melissa's work explores how science and faith can intersect, and how this intersection can lead to a deeper understanding of both. In today's episode, we will be discussing the life and work of Johannes Kepler, and how his faith influenced his scientific discoveries. We'll also be exploring the ways in which science and faith can converge, and how this convergence can deepen our understanding of the world around us.
