The Faith and Science Podcast

The readings this week are Exodus 16:2-15 and Psalm 105:1-6, 37-45, or Jonah 3:10-4:11 and Psalm 145:1-8, with Philippians 1:21-30, and Matthew 20:1-16. This week we look at when beavers flew that were both creative and using the resources they had to solve a problem. This also helps remind us that God works in creative ways if we allow God to do so. It is important for us to allow God to do God's work, which will often have creative results. Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful. Remember to answer this week's question: Where have you listened and received a creative response to your question? #FaithandSciPod If you're wanting to hear another podcast on these texts check out: 9-20-2020 - Science Need Generosity I look forward to all of your feedback, Tyler Bublitz March On by Silent Partner Porches and Universes by Puddle of Infinity Social Media Twitter: @FaithandSciPod Facebook Group: Faith and Science Podcast Group Facebook Company Page: The Faith and Science Podcast LinkedIn: Faith and Science Podcast Email: thefaithandsciencepodcast@gmail.com References: The Green Blades Preaching Roundtable (Weekly) or Green Blades Rising Publications (Monthly) reach out to ecofaith@nemnsynod.org and say which you would like to sign up for! https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/running-ponies/why-76-beavers-were-forced-to-skydive-into-the-idaho-wilderness-in-1948/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beaver_drop https://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/article/why-beavers-were-parachuted-into-the-idaho-wilderness https://www.boisestatepublicradio.org/environment/2015-01-14/parachuting-beavers-into-idahos-wilderness-yes-it-really-happened https://time.com/4084997/parachuting-beavers-history/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=snbTtuDCT6w https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpWKd9uT2Ro https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgBUTt4Ffhw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7QnhvWqbYI https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=617618600551432&set=a.401206185526009

The readings this week are Exodus 14:19-31 and Psalm 114 or Exodus 15:1b-11, 20-21, or Genesis 50:15-21 and Psalm 103:(1-7), 8-13, Romans 14:1-12, and Matthew 18:21-35. This week we look at how we as humans can get laser focused and miss the objective that we are striving for. In doing that, we become arrogant and ignorant of the things around us and end up hurting us in the end. This often means we need to be humble and forgive ourselves and others, in order to keep to the goals we see we need to accomplish.

This week we look at community ecology dynamics to be able to better understand how we need to work together instead of competing against each other. In doing so, we find ways to grow as a human while building a stronger church and church community.

This week we look at how important DNA sequencing is to helping us to better understand different parts of our ecosystem. In better understanding them, we start to better understand ourselves. We also can see why invasive species are so damaging to our ecosystems and what we can learn about ourselves from that.

This week we look at science discoveries that are showing to have bigger impacts than first thought. These are discoveries that are and will help us understand ourselves better with time even though they come from octopi and bacteria. Are we willing to keep striving to understand more to get to where God wants us to be? Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful.

This week we look at how we have a difficult walk to do with our current climate crisis. In that though, there seems to be some hope from some recent discoveries that may require some geo-engineering. This will be hard work, but it's nothing new to followers of "The Way". Are we willing to put in the work again this time? Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful.

This week how plants and lobsters can work in abundance and not expect a large return. They provide in abundance and expect that God will work within that to provide. Why don't we work in the same way? Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful.

This week look at how an irritant can become something beautiful. This is something that can easily be overlooked but if we are willing to look and dig deeper we just might find something that is much more beautiful than we expected, or even save lives! Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful.

This week look at how much has changed in the last 500 but especially the last 200 years when it comes to communication. Our desire to share ideas with each other quickly can be seen in how much we have improved it. Do we, though, do the same with our instantaneous communication that we have with God? Do we use the resource or look for the responses that God is trying to communicate with us about? Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful.

This week we talk about seed dispersal and how plants communicate with each other. If we take this information and think about it with the parable of the sower and the seed, we see the need to communicate with others with their faith. If that is the case, are we making sure that we are not only working our soil but sharing and communicating with others what we can share and what we need to grow?

This week we talk about how we have now physically changed the tilt of our planet due to how we are changing the amount of groundwater around the world. Are we okay with this?

Dear Listeners, After advertising and talking about it for months, I was able to attend Gustavus' Academy of Faith, Science, and Ethics for 2023. I had an amazing time interacting with this amazing group of young adults and hearing how they see Faith and Science working together and also the questions they have. I believe listening to this, it gives us a glimpse of the questions that some of the younger people in the faith are wondering about with Faith and Science. Hopefully, this encourages all of us to keep the conversation going. Thank you so much, Tyler Bublitz To learn more about the Academy please check out: https://gustavus.edu/chaplain/academy/ https://sites.google.com/gustavus.edu/gafse-summer-intensive-2023/home?authuser=0

This week we looking at the Migratory Bird Treaty and how that has impacted our understanding of seeing beyond barriers. By slowly understanding how birds migrate, we start to appreciate them as a resource and see the world around us as a resource that the world benefits from. As we expand our vision, we start to see our role within the creation and gain a deeper understanding of the creator of it. Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful. Remember to answer this week's question: When have we had the relationship with the creation that we should? In understanding the creation, we are better able to understand the creator! #FaithandSciPod If you're wanting to hear another podcast on these texts check out: 6-21-20 - Persecution is Part of Our Christian Character I look forward to all of your feedback, Tyler Bublitz March On by Silent Partner Porches and Universes by Puddle of Infinity Social Media Twitter: @FaithandSciPod Facebook Group: Faith and Science Podcast Group Facebook Company Page: The Faith and Science Podcast LinkedIn: Faith and Science Podcast References: The Green Blades Preaching Roundtable (Weekly) or Green Blades Rising Publications (Monthly) reach out to ecofaith@nemnsynod.org and say which you would like to sign up for! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jRmTAzfcZA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Nr6GxC6z7c https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfZhM9kzLFo https://partnersinflight.org/ https://moumn.org/

This week we look at how our mental state can prevent us from being able to recover or being able to do what God is calling us to do. We can often find ourselves in a state of putting up roadblocks that prevent us from doing what needs to be done in order for us to grow into the person that we are being called to be. This is why making sure we are also working on our mental state is very important as well. Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful.

A frog goes through its life and gets to the point where it has to take the "leap" of faith and leave the water and everything it's known and go into the world beyond the water. We too, especially after the ascension are called into that new life as well which might mean "leaping" into something new.
