Advanced Studies in Faith and Science: The Pascal Centre | Featuring Dr. Jitse van der Meer

The Redeemer Podcast

Welcome to the Redeemer Podcast! In this episode, we are looking into the Pascal Centre with Simon Mischuk and Owen Ecker, Redeemer summer research assistants.

Founded in 1988, The Pascal Centre for Advanced Studies in Faith and Science promotes constructive relations between Christian faith and the natural sciences by means of education, outreach, and research in the light of Scripture. In seeking to provide Christian leadership in a secular culture, the Pascal Centre addresses not only current but also new and forgotten questions. The Pascal Fellow attached to the Centre is Dr. Jitse van der Meer.

As van der Meer writes, “For many, the question of how science can help to understand the Bible has high priority, but the Centre also explores how Christian faith can contribute to an understanding of nature. The Centre approaches this question not just in the sense that faith motivates the study of God’s creation, but it explores how religious beliefs affect the very content of scientific explanation.”
