Faith, Evidence, and the Search for Truth with Todd Brimm
Manage episode 522335614 series 3584571
“Nobody wants to be fooled — we all want to know if what we believe actually holds water.”
Kevin and Jamie talk with Todd Brimm — Army and Navy veteran, retired police detective, instructor, and theologian — about belief, evidence, and the questions people wrestle with at different points in life. They get into what led him to write “Does God Exist?”, how his background shaped the way he examines information, and why he decided to challenge his own assumptions the same way he would evaluate a case.
The conversation moves through worldview, bias, scientific culture, and the human search for meaning, all through Todd’s lens of lived experience rather than theory.
