Along with our regular full-length episodes and series, I will also be producing this year some shorter episodes that we'll affectionately call Shower Thoughts. These shorter episodes will be an opportunity to have some fun wrestling with some of the more speculative ideas and hypotheses in the world of theology and meaning-making.

Today's episode is all about Christianity & evolution. Living things are fundamentally driven to survive and procreate. They adapt features that best help to ensure they do just that. The ones that don't die out.  Traditionally, Darwinian theory suggests that evolution has no goal, but for some reason, as Jeff Goldbloom's character in Jurassic Park exclaims, "Life finds a way."

But why?

Does evolution have a point? And can the answer be found in the Christian story of Good News?
