In this episode, Doug sits down with Dr. Matthew Huddleston, a physics professor at Trevecca University, to delve into his remarkable life journey. First we hear about his family's decision to move to the middle of Africa in what is now the Democratic Republic of Congo when he was just a boy. He talks about the challenges of transitioning to Africa and the reverse culture shock of moving back to the U.S. as a teenager. We also hear about how Dr. Huddleston developed his passion for physics under the African night sky.
The episode also delves into the intriguing intersection of faith and science, discussing how Dr. Huddleston harmonizes his Christian beliefs with his scientific understanding, despite the perceived conflict between the two realms.
Listeners will also hear about Dr. Huddleston's recently published first novel, a science fiction adventure based on his study of physics. He also recounts his recent adventurous return trip to Congo after 35 years, where he revisits the village of his childhood and embarks on a quest to explore an undiscovered jungle waterfall.
