The Faith and Science Podcast

9-14-25 - Innovation, Growth, and Thinking Outside the Box

The readings for Holy Cross Sunday are Numbers 21:4b-9, and Psalm 98:1-5, or Psalm 78:1-2, 34-38, with 1 Corinthians 1:18-24, and John 3:13-17 or for the Fourteenth Sunday after Pentecost are Jeremiah 4:11-12, 22-28 and Psalm 14, or Exodus 32:7-14 and Psalm 51:1-10, with 1 Timothy 1:12-17, and Luke 15:1-10.  This week we talk about the recent potential breakthrough of the Milli Spinner for blot clots.  It is taking some ideas that we have had in the past and building upon them instead of staying put and being satisfied with what we have discovered.  Instead we push forward and potentially have found a great breakthrough that could impact many people's lives.  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 are you going to grow with new ideas? #FaithandSciPod

9-7-25 - From Potter's Clay to Forest Cycles: Embracing Change

The readings for this week for the Thirteenth Sunday after Pentecost are Jeremiah 18:1-11 and Psalm 139:1-6, 13-18, or Deuteronomy 30:15-20 and Psalm 1, with Philemon 1:1-21, and Luke 14:25-33.  This week we talk about the example of a dead tree and what that can teach us.  What appears to be "dead" still can provide a lot to the living and is seen as a vital part of the tree cycle.  It is a very important part for many parts of God's creation being part of a life/death/life cycle.  Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful.

400 Special Episode!

Dear Listeners,
 
We have made it 400 straight weeks of talking about Faith and Science!  I first want to thank everyone who has tagged along on this crazy journey.  I hope you enjoy this episode as we thank you and talk about what some of the future holds for the podcast.  Hope you enjoy it as we continue talking about Faith and Science each week.
 
Thank you so much,
Tyler Bublitz

8-31-25 - What Flowering Plants Teach Us About Pride

The readings for this week for the Twelfth Sunday after Pentecost are Jeremiah 2:4-13 and Psalm 81:1, 10-16, or Sirach 10:12-18 or Proverbs 25:6-7 and Psalm 112, with Hebrews 13:1-8, 15-16, and Luke 14:1, 7-14.  This week we look at flowering plants.  Have you ever considered that plants don't all flower at once?  Why don't plants flower all summer long?  How did plants get to a point of understanding when their "competition" was blooming so that they could make sure not to flower at the same time.  There is a humbleness that we can see in nature that needs some exploring that we get into this week.  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 is pride taking over your Sabbath? #FaithandSciPod

Huge Announcement - Time to start Talkin' Faith and Science

After years of thinking about this, I am going live on Thursday August 21st at Noon Central time with my first Talkin' Faith and Science Podcast.  I am excited to hear the feedback and thoughts on this new project.
 
 
See you on Thursday,
Tyler Bublitz

8-24-25 - Holy Pauses

The readings for this week for the Eleventh Sunday after Pentecost are Jeremiah 1:4-10 and Psalm 71:1-6, or Isaiah 58:9b-14 and Psalm 103:1-8, with Hebrews 12:18-29, and Luke 13:10-17.  This week we look at this history of Penicillin.  We see that there were multiple people who saw potential in it but yet were not able to pursue studying it.  The first major paper that goes through some of the benefits of Penicillin, didn't lead to a major breakthrough right away.  There was a period of rest to process what had been learned and then it appeared it was something to be pursued.  We as people need to be able to take our Sabbath in order to do the same.  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 do you take and when do you take your Sabbath? #FaithandSciPod

8-17-25 - Sour Grapes: A Climate Wake-Up Call

The readings for this week for the Tenth Sunday after Pentecost are Isaiah 5:1-7 and Psalm 80:1-2, 8-19, or Jeremiah 23:23-29 and Psalm 82, with Hebrews 11:29-12:2, and Luke 12:49-56.  This week we look at our environment.  It can no longer be ignored.  We must address that we need to take care of the place that we live in before we lose it.  If we are truly following Christ, we must be willing to give up what we know as comfortable and move into a place that may seem challenging but is following closer to what God is wanting us to do.  Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful.

8-10-25 - Prepared for Flight: When God's Gifts Meet the Moment

The readings for this week for the Ninth Sunday after Pentecost are Isaiah 1:1, 10-20 and Psalm 50:1-8, 22-23, or Genesis 15:1-6 and Psalm 33:12-22, with Hebrews 11:1-3, 8-16, and Luke 12:32-40.  This week we look at being prepared.  The Wright Brothers' didn't expect to be the people who would fly the first manned flight but through things throughout their lives and not be intimidated by the task at hand, they were able to be the first ones.  With our faith, we need to put ourselves into positions where the gifts that God has given us, can be used and seen in the world around us.  Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful.

8-3-25 - Co-Migration and Community

The readings for this week for the Eighth Sunday after Pentecost are Hosea 11:1-11 and Psalm 107:1-9, 43, or Ecclesiastes 1:2, 12-14; 2:18-23 and Psalm 49:1-12, with Colossians 3:1-11, and Luke 12:13-21.  This week we look at Co-Migration.  This has been observed in multiple species and is being noticed that it is happening more due to the fact of how our climate is changing.  This leads us into a discussion of making sure that we are working together and not becoming focused only on "me".  If we can focus on working together, the chances for us all growing are much higher.  Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful.
