Wonder: The Harmony of Faith and Science
A five part film series from Word on Fire exploring the intersection of faith and science.
A perceived incompatibility between faith and science has led to a rise in the number of religiously unaffiliated. This perception runs counter to the experience of Catholic tradition, which conveys the beautiful harmony between faith and science.
In this film series, each episode examines a different area of scientific knowledge in relation to the great tradition of the Catholic faith.
The series is narrated by The Chosen’s Jonathan Roumie. It was produced through the support of the John Templeton Foundation.
The heavens declare the glory of God. Psalm 19:1
