Healing through the ESN Steam Grant Project

October 21, 2018 by ESN Announce Leave a Comment

Stephanie Holmer

When I was approached to lead conversations with graduate students about science and faith topics as part of the Emerging Scholars Network (ESN) STEAM grant project, I accepted with a good deal of hesitation. I had grown up with a narrative of science and Christianity being in conflict, had no resources for resolving that narrative as an undergraduate chemistry major, and became totally exhausted of the topic by the time I was starting my graduate school journey. Things were no different by the time I graduated and … [Read more...] about Healing through the ESN Steam Grant Project

How should Christians in the sciences choose an epistemology? (STEAM Grant Series)

June 9, 2018 by Jim Stump Leave a Comment

ESN is currently creating a Faith/Science curriculum for young adult small groups.  We've partnered with InterVarsity graduate student discussion groups to identify faith/science questions that are important to emerging scholars, and we're commissioning thoughtful Christians in science or theology/philosophy to explore those questions in this series at the ESN blog.  We will publish these posts as a booklet curriculum for campus groups. Today, we're delighted to welcome Jim Stump on the topic of epistemology.  This … [Read more...] about How should Christians in the sciences choose an epistemology? (STEAM Grant Series)

Science Corner: A View From the Poles

August 16, 2017 by Andy Walsh Leave a Comment

Summer, or at least the summer school holiday, is winding down, but it's not too late to take up a summer project. I was challenged by an interview I heard with New York Times' columnist David Leonhardt to reconsider my point of view on an issue. While perhaps not exactly the kind of political issue Leonhardt may have had in mind, the first issue I thought of was the value of conflict--not a physical donnybrook but points of genuine disagreement or contrast in perspective on matters philosophical, theological, … [Read more...] about Science Corner: A View From the Poles

Science in Review: Taxi Cab Science

May 31, 2017 by Andy Walsh Leave a Comment

Last week I had the opportunity to attend a science writing workshop organized by Christianity Today. I wrote a few pieces for their e-magazine The Behemoth and since they are now looking to expand their science coverage in their main magazine, they kindly invited me to participate. I appreciated the opportunity to reflect in a more focused fashion on my role as a science communicator, on the promotion of science versus the practice of science, and on what readers want and need from science coverage. After a day and … [Read more...] about Science in Review: Taxi Cab Science
