The Faith and Science Podcast
A place where Christian Faith and Science come together. Each week we take the Revised Common Lectionary and try finding a science connection or tie in into these texts.

The readings for this week for the First Sunday of Advent are Isaiah 2:1-5, Psalm 122, Romans 13:11-14, and Matthew 24:36-44. This week we talk about how peace and patience seem to be connected.

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
