In this episode of the Prodigal Daughter podcast, we delve into the intersection of faith and science, exploring archaeological, historical, and scientific discoveries that affirm the reliability of the Bible. The host shares her personal journey from cultural Christianity to evidential faith and discusses why evidence-based faith is crucial in today's secular society. Key topics include archaeological discoveries like the Dead Sea Scrolls, scientific principles in the Bible, and the importance of apologetics in fortifying faith and addressing skepticism.
