- In this video, Rosalind Picard shares the story of her journey to God. Along the way, she unpacks the critical realization that Science, as wonderful as it is, is not the only vehicle to bring us to Truth and that many aspects of human life simply fall outside the view of Science. She then explains her process of seeking answers to those huge Why questions that go beyond mere process or mechanism. I hope you enjoy!

Former non believer here...I was a homeless addict, I'd been through so much grief, pain and sadness and I moved into a new home with my husband after getting off of opiates and I spent a year being attacked by the demonic. Mentally, spiritually, and physically. Well, long story. Im more sure now of the presence of God than I am of anything else. My testimony; the experience is the best gift I've ever been given. I've stayed on the straight and narrow (joyfully) for 7 years and God has given me new life!!!❤
Makes you question why any god would create demons, wouldn't it?
A bit of a racket really
Always the desperate, brainwashed, or ignorant
@@domdomination430 we are flawed! I'm also an award winning musician, a wife, a scholar, a friend, an artist and an athlete. I completely understand feeling the way you do. I used to too. I'm praying that God will open your eyes. Have a wonderful day:)
@@Jimages_uk Hello Jim, the only logic any of us have is human logic but it doesn't help with the supernatural; with a higher power. God gave all of his living creatures free will. I don't have all the answers but I do know that he is with us. If you're wanting to seek God try praying with an open heart. Ask God to bring you unshakeable faith. Ask him to reveal his presence to you and bless you with the Holy Spirit. He will. Have a good day!
@@Mario_Sky_521 if your god is omniscient, he knew when he created these angels, that they would rebel, but even if he didn't, he could have, being almighty, destroyed these rebellious angels, but instead, sent them down to you, removing YOUR own privileges in support of the demons.
Not a god I would support, free will is a cop out, and just an excuse theists make because of all the cracks in the god they invented.
“When you encounter truth there’s something in you that sings.” I really love that.
@ 4m 50seconds
I wonder why listening to your insides sing isn't an established part of scientific methodology. I wait, I remember. It's because it has led people to believe false things before.
@@elvancor … and? Not any more misleading to a person than the reasoning mind … which is no datum for truth
Truth is a sound - it rings no doubt about it - Proverbs and psalms are working !
Yeah it's so true though, I related to that 100% instantly. You can't measure it, you just know.
I was raised without religion but I'm becoming more and more intrigued by it because of people like her or Jordan Peterson. I just ordered the Bible on Amazon and I'll try to find out for myself.
It will change your life!
🤍
Excellent Plan !
To share my experience, please read the Bible with reliable commentary book and listen to sermons from reliable pastors such as John MacArthur (he has uploaded very comprehensive sermons on his channel Grace to You) etc. You shall be amazed how great God’s Word is. May Lord Jesus Christ strengthen our faith in Him and lead us to His kingdom. Amen.
I would highly suggest visiting a few churches, people are very welcoming and they will be more than happy to pray for you.
I went to see her speak awhile ago, I was lost in my biomedical research, and she changed my life. I decided to go down the same road, and at the end of the journey, I cannot deny Gods existence anymore.
Love your testimony! God bless you!

You've come out of your darkness and into the light of God...CONGRATULATIONS !!!
@@ronaldhol9175 god is a piece of crap so why don’t you fuck off?
He truly is the way🙏💗
I'm so emotional lately. First I teared up over Russell Brand talking about Lent and not wanting to be separated from God and now this lady. Prayers are being answered. Thank you God.
Me, too. And it's not just those with a platform coming to Christ. On a personal level, I see everyday people turning to Christ. The days are dark, but the light of Christ is shining brighter.
Me too! I can’t explain it but I keep getting emotional seeing all of these encounters ❤
"The mystery of the Incarnation is very simply that of God’s asking a woman freely to give Him a human nature."
Fulton J. Sheen, The World's First Love: Mary, Mother of God
God bless 🙏
I see it too in my own circle! My children are suddenly acknowledging God and that they are praying! Say whaaaa?! I see more and more “celebrities “ openly saying they found Christ as well. I am calling it a revival! 🥰
It's always been there. The faith bandwidth has improved over the last few years because the proselytizing athiests have largely lost their audience.
Bless this lady. It seems it takes a heavy dose of courage these days to be a highly educated scientist and also be a Christian.
There are many well educated Christians who are scientists, botanists, mathematicians, etc. Check out John Lennox.
Assuming someone who doesn't deny the overwhelming evidence of Christ is uneducated or unintelligent is just ignorance, and bigotry, not saying that you assume such a thing, but people do, I did for over 25 years, and then I realized that the truth was stranger than fiction. I now love to study science in all facets even more, because it all points to Christ!
@@Jonesmalone562"the truth is stranger than fiction"...❤
That's because nothing in science provides evidence that any god exists, and much of science provides strong evidence against some particular religions like Christianity. If you look at the actual reasons that scientists are Christian, they have nothing to do with the good evidentiary standards of science. Francis Collins converted because he saw a beautiful waterfall and felt emotionally moved by it, for example. Dr. Picard never mentions the specific reasons and speaks in generalities, but according to her bio, she converted to Christianity during her freshman year in college. So, she was a Christian. Later, she became an MIT professor.
It is true that many scientists are not Christians, & hold no religion. But those same people treat this world as their heaven & make our existence a heaven on earth, as they do not believe that our existence exists after death.
I feel that there is something very selfless in living as if our days are numbered & wanting to make a positive impact on the world.
Been an atheist and talked bad about Christianity my whole life.
I felt a pull toward it at the start of the year, met my local priest and visited his church and he gave me a bible.
Shortly after that I was holding a cross given to me 15 years ago in Afghanistan by an army Padre, I tried to refuse it at the time saying I wasn’t religious, he made a joke and placed it in my hand and told me he would pray for me. On that tour I was in a very large explosion where it was thought I was killed instantly. I walked away without a scratch.
In that moment holding them in my hand again thinking back I had a flood of positive emotions and broke down in tears. That padre got me closer to GOD. When I returned I stepped away as I didn’t wear my dog tags with that cross on it. But I felt in that moment he was there the whole time! Looking after me and making sure my suicide didn’t work when I was at my lowest. I’ve always felt alone in this world but that moment I felt so loved and embraced.
It’s affected everything in my life in a positive way. I’m far from perfect but my word do I see where I go wrong now and even stop my self reacting now, so much more inner peace which is growing daily.
For whatever reason it’s happened, I’m so glad it has and I am all in. Reading the bible and learning along the way. 🙏🏼❤️🫡🇬🇧
Great testimony brother. Keep the faith strong for us!
ex non believer - now christian. got healed from a 12 year long depression after only 3 prayers.
jesus christ ❤
What prayers?
@@user-yk9sk7pg6v asking to be cured of depression MR Obvious! but not from your mouth only!
@@user-yk9sk7pg6v It doesn't matter what you pray. It matters WHO you pray to.
Well, there's proof if I ever needed it.
Praise God..... my experience as well, re. depression. I weaned myself off all meds, and decided to trust in Jesus alone...
His grace was and is, truly, amazing..... Also, I was an ex-Buddhist / New ager, God had mercy, reached down into the meditation hall and touched my spirit and reminded me who I REALLY was, and who He'd always been. . . . . .
I truly believe God gave science as a means to show us a glimpse of who God himself is … How beautiful is Creation , and how much more God himself is !
That's interesting. I never thought about that 👍
I don’t think he *gave* science, but rather, he created an intelligible world, and gave us the minds to discover the intelligibility, which science sprang forth from.
This is actually the mentality of many early scientists, like Boyle, Kepler, Newton. They understood that the universe is rational and orderly _because_ of their theological beliefs.
Logic seeks out logic, we are made in His image St Maximus made this argument
Amen
I've heard it said a little science drives you away from God, a lot of science pulls you back. There is an intelligent design in all creation that cannot be ignored.
True, but it doesn't mean that the ancient Israelite war God that needs blood magic is the one true God.
Absolutely
That's a great statement, and describes my experience fairly well. In the book The Psychology of Totalitarianism, author Mattias Desmet explains how once we reach the edge of our ability to objectively know, we begin to describe what we can't know artistically, or, poetically. In other words, religion begins where science ends.
@@Rileyedhes joking. You are a believer.. you cant comprehend how silly it is for most of us that a huge portion of humanity believes in a zombie soul eater god.😂
You yourself, probably laugh at aztec or incan human sacrifices.
The irony is lost on you.
@@Volleyball_Chess_and_Geoguessr but what you need to see is that ultimately it is a religion growing beyond violence and war. Beyond sacrifice and vengeance. But that is a deeper, more nuanced, mature view. I've found that most atheists have a childlike grasp of religion, rather than a view which embraces the more difficult aspects of life and existence.
I was a preaching atheist and I wanted ammunition for my atheism. So I read the gospel according to Luke. Just like she said it was truth like beautiful music. I was changed and became a believer. It is powerful.
yes, the Word of God is sharper than a two-edged sword..... it pierces the most profound reasonings.... easily.
It’s great that you found inspiration there. I feel it’s important to recognize that there are many sacred texts and people might find the same meaning in other traditions. The trouble is some Christians don’t allow for this.
@@maayys No. there isn't.
@@bible1st There isn’t what?
What an amazing story. Thank you
I got baptized a year ago now, and I have noticed changes. I'm less angry, less envious, less prideful, more ready and willing to forgive and I feel my guardian angels presence more now. I've gained the power to know what the right (moral) answer is in certain situations. The holy Spirit is truly incredible.
Congrats!!!❤❤❤
So true!!! How wonderful, God Bless you ALWAYS!
What's even more incredible is you did it completely on your own, simply thinking the holy spirit played any part at all. The truth is you are capable of extraordinary things when you fully commit to it, the placebo is simply proven to expedite results within the mind. No matter how you get there, Congrats.
@@joshfreeman3452 Hello Josh, happy Saturday:) Just wanted to share a super short version of my story. Former non believer here. I used to roll my eyes at the idea of God, I would get annoyed when I'd hear people talk about Jesus. I valued intellect and would use human logic to explain why believing in God is Silly...well, many traumatic losses in my life later and I was broken and beaten down. I had lost everything but my marriage. My husband and I moved into a new home when I was 39 years old and the year of demonic oppression began. It began as terrifying dreams and feelings of being watched and progressed to poltergeist activity, repeated banging on the side of our house that sounded like a semi truck was ramming into it. Terrifying disembodied voices and dark apparitions to mental and physical, yes, PHYSICAL abuse that started happening to me every single day. I can't talk about the nature of that abuse here.I did EVERYTHING to get help. Fled the home only to be followed, sought mental health help (which didn't help because I was deemed lucid), ruled out EVERY LOGICAL thing that it could have been and in the end after ALL OF THE THINGS I did to get away from this demon the ONLY THING that saved us was the Word of God and becoming a believer. The DAY, the first DAY I actually prayed for the first time the attacks stopped. I woke up the next morning and felt completely different. There's alot more...enough to fill a book but anyhow, some of us have had experiences that have given us no room for doubt, and I mean no room. I will never turn back. Your intellect and logic will never bring you close to God but your humility will. Most of us find him when we realize that NO one else can help us. Anyhow, I hope that someday you do come to know the God that made you and that loves you beyond your comprehension. The placebo effect is part of what God gives us. It's the power of belief and hope! It is the best Love and Strength I've ever known. Have a blessed weekend and stay safe out there.
@@joshfreeman3452 I don't expect a non believer to understand. You have to experience it yourself. Living water is not a placebo. god bless.

I was raised in a religious way in the Presbyterian Church. It wasn't until I was older in my twenties when I fully chose to submit to Jesus Christ and it changed my life.❤️🙏❤️
@@teresanero4547 yes exactly 💯
You went from one cope to another. You don't care about reality or what's true. Don't ever tell others that they're wrong.
I went through similar. i was atheist and used to tell religious people they were crutching to avoid existentialism. Until, i fell into deep anxiety, nihilism and that exact existential dread. In that time i studied astrophysics, biology and psychology. After looking a bit at them subjects often you become scared of the fact you're stood on a tiny speck travelling thousands of miles an hour through the abyss, nothing in your life has meaning, not even your family and there's no point to this. That is where i was. I actually said a prayer at that point even though i didn't believe. From that day, i kept studying and the more i learned, the more i saw God. He pulled me out of that unbearable state.
The process went a bit like this.The universe had a beginning which means there had to be a cause. (Remember, according to the naturalist view before this NOTHING existed, not even the moulds to shape the physical world, no maths, nothing at all). This means the cause of the universe is outside of space, time and matter; all powerful; perfect, eternal and a personal being because it chose to create us. From there you realise the creator has the right to tell us what we can and can't do in his creation. This is where the 10 commandments come in. That's when you have to ask yourself, according to them, am i a good person? lets see: have i ever stole? yes. have i ever lied? yes. etc etc. You quickly realise that to God's perfect standard, NONE of us are good people at all. So, since we have sinned and gone against the creator's rules, most the other religions say doing good will outweigh the bad. However, this would not be a just judge. If you had a speeding fine then went to court and said, "but i went under the speed limit the rest of the month" is that going to justify your punishment? No. This is actually a pivotal point in disregarding other religions. So, if all sin must be punished because that is what is just, surely that means none of us deserve heaven? Correct. We all fall short of God's standard. However, if you were in court and your friend came along and paid your fine would that work? yes. As long as it is paid for the judge finds it just. You see, this is where i came to faith. God partially limits himself to flesh to come to earth as Jesus, live a sinless life, perform miracles, heal people and die on the cross to pay that price for us all. Many people then say God cannot limit himself, not only is saying that limiting God, but God already partially limited himself when creating us. He did not need us. Yet he limited himself to share his glory with people who want to be with him. Add to this the 300+ prophesies Jesus impossibly fulfilled( literally read Isaiah 53), the fact his disciples went from fleeing out of fear when he died to suddenly be willing to get decapitated, sawn in half, fed to animals because they said they saw him risen (as he said he would on the 3rd day). Then you look at the archaeological evidence, mirales, NDE's, the fact that the apostles has absolutely no incentive to make any of them things up. THEN look around us right now. The prophesies happening in front of our eyes. Anyways, yeah i went from nihilism to Christ, he fixed my anxiety, i no longer fear the future. However, if you're reading this and feel worked up about what i have said, please know, i used to feel that same way. Soften your heart and be open minded. Putting our faith in Jesus is God's gift out of grace for us to get to heaven, even relying 1% on your own works and actions makes you fall short of his standard because only God is good.
Sending love to whoever has took the time to read.
What a smart and humble woman. God bless her
She is smart and I don't think she is right about the historical evidence. It either she talked to pastors to get her information or a terrible historian. Most historian don't think the resurrection evidence even exist.
@@joeleniola9140 Please, we possess Jesus' burial cloths with his image, caused by resurrection. I am referring to the Shroud of Turin, and it is authentic.
Additionally, how would you explain the conversion of Paul and James, both skeptics? What did they have to gain? As far as we know, both were executed. These are historical facts.
@@les2997 They never respond and do not know how to concede with grace like an adult when confronted with evidence that contradicts their bias.
@@les2997 "Shroud of Turin"
I guess we are scooping that low huh. The cloth does not prove anything, it dates back to the medieval ages and it is still debated.
The conversion of Paul is indeed interesting but does not prove the resurrection. He never met Jesus. This does not prove Jesus did miracles or really anything. Just like an atheist turning to Islam or Christianity does not prove the religion.
How do you explain the fact that the biblical account is all we have for something like someone coming from the dead. How do you account for the fact that we don't know the author of the first four doctrines. how do you account for the fact that witness you claim to have all wrote down their stuff decades after the event. How do you account for the fact that your god decided the best place to appear is not the heart of Rome where more people will write about him but in the middle of nowhere where we have not much information about the people there at that time.
Thumbs up.
I have a similar story. Although I am not a scientist, I am fairly educated and informed. When I was 27 years old and going through a miserable time in my life with alcohol, drugs, and a failing marriage, I decided I would start reading the book that I had criticized all my adult life and had never opened. After about a week of nightly reading the OT, I realized it was the truth and then I read the gospel of John and realized I had a serious problem and that I needed salvation. It's been 45 years and I am still growing in sanctification by the grace of GOD. Praise HIM all ye people!
Yes. You have to be convinced that you have a magic invisible disease, before you can believe in the magic invisible cure. When you're desperate and emotionally vulnerable, it's easier to believe such toxic, self-degrading things about yourself.

I also went through that same experience, Atheist, Agnostic, Theist and full believer in Jesus Christ. I had reached the end of my cleverness, having dabbled in all kinds of Eastern and New Age philosophies, I was sick, lost and confused. I finally proceeded to read the Bible from cover to cover, I experienced it like that character in the Never-Ending Story and I KNEW every word of it was true, it changed me profoundly and set me on a journey where I was healed physically, mentally and emotionally. Jesus is the way, the truth and the life.
Hi Rosalind, I'm glad you're happy. I like it when a woman is happy!! Maybe we'll run into each other in heaven.

It is very useful to have the best of a conversation in a few minutes with your videos. Thank you. I appreciate your work. It saves me a lot of time. And sometimes, when I have the time, I look for the rest of those videos.
I can’t imagine that she gets much support from her colleagues. They probably call her all sorts of crazy behind her back. Truly courageous to come out publicly as a Christian in the USA in 2024’. Can you believe that’s a true statement?
Even many Christians don't get much support from other Christians if you actually say you believe in the Risen Christ.
Yes. The position of people of faith, especially in the artistic, scientific, and public spheres is analogous of the plight of out gays in the bad old days, like, "You're one of THEM?"🎉

Great testinony! It is refreshing to see an honest scientist with an hunger for the truth. “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened..'
And all those people who seek and don't find, fuck them right?
The thing that impresses me so much is how she came to believe this. So many people only come to it because of some unbelievable tragedy in their lives, drug addiction, a loved one dying, homelessness etc but she came to it through just opening up her mind to it. Not that this matters that much but for people who dismiss it because they say it's a crutch, etc, a fantasy because your alone etc she proves this wrong. What an amazing woman. I would love to show this video to anybody who thinks dismissively about Christianity and faith . I have found it is truly a gradual process, I just started a few years ago and have a long way to go but I do feel it building inside. I think it helps to listen to the great works of classical music and not just the cantatas or the handel's messiah, etc but really anything that is just beautiful, that moves you
I decided to pray the Rosary every day just because I liked it and after a while I met Jesus.. I didn't know why, until I learned that the Virgin Mary leads you to Jesus.

she doesn't explain why after studying all the other religions, she rejected those and said Christianity is the 'right' one. In her mind now, there is only one correct (I guess she'd say 'true') religion, and she should have to justify why. Maybe she doesn't want to offend others directly, in the hope they will accept 'the gift'. She does appear very nice and very smart, would like to see her debate Dawkins or the other guy who is now leading the brigade.
@@jamesrav it is not easy to grasp, but Christianity is not a religion, it is a word to encapsulate man’s relationship with God restored through The death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. A man, created through the union of the Holy Spirit and a woman - Mary, who became Emmanuel - God with us.
He lived a sinless life, despite many temptations, so that when he died, he was completely innocent, and therefore the only one who could stand in our place.
The ‘gift’ is free to us. All we need to do is to accept who he is, and place our faith and trust in him. In that moment our spiritual eyes are opened, as we are reconnected with our Heavenly Father.
Religion is invented by man. It is usually a series of rules designed to illicit conformance. It is usually all about what man can do for god, to please him, to gain acceptance.
The truth is what God has done for man through the birth, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
There are many famous scientists who profess or have professed Jesus Christ as Lord. John Lennox, former professor of mathematics at Oxford University is one such person.
I hope and pray that you take time to investigate the claims of Jesus Christ for yourself.
Guys like Lee Strobel and Josh McDowell did so and went out of their way to prove otherwise, but their research eventually led them to the truth.
@@jamesrav Psychopaths, the rich, attractive people, liars appear nice and smart. Ethos has nothing to do with the actuality of what's true. All religions are a cope about reality, they are a system of control. It's fine to shame people for their beliefs because they reject what's probably true. What's not probably true is a book claiming some all-powerful God exists and had direct influence over the world. People taking other people's word for their belief system about reality. It's better to parrot what I say then parrot a book written to cope and control.
Her authenticity and honesty puts a smile on my face. Welcome sister.
How refreshing to see someone so intelligent and honest at the same time. So rare today.
It's God/Jesus given wisdom when you truly seek Him in His Holy Writ seeking to be adopted by Him by the only way He teaches which is by becoming John 3:1-21 qualified... the way is so narrow _[Matthew 7:13-14]_ and read Matthew 7:21-23 _[in context of Matthew 7:1-29]_ so you may ensure you become immune or are immune to Matthew 7:21-23, Revelation 3:15-16, 21:8, 22:15.
Many religious believers are honest in their wishful thinking. Not rare at all. We want so desperately for it to be true that we honestly believe it to be true.

@@mrsnoo86there is a greater power in the universe we call God. It’s a real phenomenon. Whether that’s a supernatural conscious being or whether it’s just a material creative force, it exists. Something does not spring spontaneously out of nothingness, by definition of nothingness.

My son was raised knowing Jesus and also with an appreciation for science. He's a physicist now but has abandoned his faith. 😢 I continue to pray that he'll meet scientists who are Christian like Dr. James Tour and Dr. Picard, and realize that science does not necessitate atheist.
Sometimes as we get older we come back don’t lose hope 🙏🏼
Show him Dr. Hugh Ross, a brilliant astrophysicist and Christian apologist :)
Dont worry all roads lead to God
Hes on his journey
This happens to a lot of scientists - myself included. I just hope you can accept him for who he is. It is not worth judging people for their beliefs or lack of them. Belief and disbelief are not voluntary. People weigh evidence differently and people accept cognitive dissonance to varying levels.
I love this video because I’ve watched so many testimonies where it seems like people have these explosive discoveries of Christianity and Christ and their life changes immediately in like every way possible. But I have found that my wall has been slow and incremental as far as change, and I think that makes sense to see it as any kind of relationship. The more we let out our walls and expose our heart the deeper that bond becomes.
Your analysis of the videos keeps getting better and better. Thank you for doing this.
I am an MIT graduate and became a follower of Jesus in 2001.
Praise the Lord!!
Cool story, bro!

Ex-atheist to Christian here too. God's Love always overwhelms my faithlessness
Matthew 24:14 "And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come."
Technology has spread the gospel across the globe (not everyone has heard, but every nation has probably heard). According to the Bible it is likely the end is soon and it is not the time to settle down but it is rather the time to warn people that Jesus said he was coming back.
Google Matthew 24:19.
Romans 10:13-14a "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed?"
Saying the name of Jesus without a shred of doubt is where Salvation is at, according to the Bible.
I love your comment. Thank you.
@@warningwarning8826
North Korea has not been reached yet and much of Japan hasn't heard. The gospel is spreading in China, India and Africa, though.
@@fazole You are making a good point. But I think in order to censor the gospel some of them would have had to hear it. Remember it does not say the gospel shall be preached to every person, just to all nations.
Beautiful
I was challenged not only to believe this but put it into practice . That’s what made the difference.
It's great to see very intelligent person who admires and enjoys the integrity of the Bible. Thank you and God bless You all.
Her comments reminded me of the poem "The Touch of the Master's Hand." I'm gonna look it up right now & read it. It's about an old violin that was on the auction block & how it just sat there & nobody wanted it (us, sometimes). Then an old man in the back comes up & picks it up & starts playing it (Christ). He makes beautiful music and the crowd is suddenly interested & the value of that old violin goes up and up!
Thankyou for your short podcasts. I love your testimony.❤❤❤❤
the old started to fiddle with Christ ? odd story .
@@holadonkey
It's a beautiful allegory.
You should look it up & read it. It makes me cry every time.
The middle part goes like this:
"And many a man with life out of tune and battered and scarred with sin,
Is auctioned cheap to the thoughtless crowd, much like the old violin".......
Christ is a dirty cunt
So, you're worthless until someone of worth does something with you? How wretched you must be to think that poorly of yourself. You don't need a god. You need a fucking therapist.
I was raised in a Christian family and went through the paces, but never really had a personal faith. As a teenager I began seeking more and attended various churches, studied scriptures more, talked to more people about their faith, etc. but that true faith wasn't really there.
Later in life when I began getting interested in physics, philosophy, astronomy, and more I was then able to truly grow in my faith and understanding of it all. Now I truly know and understand what it is to have faith and to be able to see and feel God in EVERYTHING.
Wow! Thanks for sharing that.
Yep, because when you really get into physics and biology, you'll end up not having enough faith to be an atheist. Love Frank Turek. It takes WAY more "blind" faith to NOT believe in a Creator, than to put your faith in the Creator of everything.
@@richbaker7187 So very true.
We are at an amazing time of having access to so much information that with spending hours a day listening to the likes of Turek, Heiser, Lennox, Craig, etc. as well as diving deep into the sciences one reaches epiphanies within the correlations between science and God daily.
Even after years of doing so I feel that I have barely scratched the surface of understanding yet I long to keep searching and learning because it continues to awaken something inside.
Atheism is based on the BELIEF that there is no God despite the overwhelming evidence around us that there is God, there is Creator, there is Devine order, there is good, there is evil, there is Truth (objective), there is love, the man is a complex spiritual being not just a bunch of chaotic chemical and psychical coincidences and reactions.
By the way, there is a CATEGORIAL MATERIAL EVIDENCE that the Gospels are absolutely right about the death and the resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ the only Begotten Son of God and God Himself. This is the Shroud of Turin (the burial cloth of Jesus) which contains the undeniable material information, recognized even by the honest non Christian scientists.
P.S. Jesus went through hell on earth and bellow, carried our unmeasurable filth and died for us, and for us to be ashamed of Him and His Gospel is beyond cowardice. There is nothing courageous to proclaim His Holy name even in deadly circumstances - it’s the smallest act of gratitude we own Him and at the same time it is a matter of eternal life or death for us.
My husband and I had a similar experience. We were raised to know about Jesus, but it was our science degrees and backgrounds which began to bring it all together. Our faith actually enhanced our lives in ways we never imagined. It is the rock we stand on.
Thank you for your work. I truly enjoy your videos and impressed by the succinct conveyance of wisdom.
Beautiful testimony, and I appreciate how careful and authentic she was in sharing it.
Hebrews 11:1-3
1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
2 For by it the elders obtained a good report.
3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
I can't see molecules. But science tells me they exist. There are things we cannot see but we have faith they exist. I didn't build the bridge I cross daily, but I have faith that it will support my vehicle and help me cross a body of water safely. Yet again you have outdone yourself. Thank you, brother. I love you 🙏🏿✌🏿💙💪🏿
We can see molecules. We can see blackholes . She feels that god is real. But shows zero evidence for her peculiar supernatural god. Im glad she is happy . But history is a social science.
Best comment!

Beautifully relevant.
It wasn't until I picked up the Bible that I began to see the truth. Christians all around me, but their words didn't get through to me. As soon as I read Mark, THAT NIGHT, I felt that same feeling she described. It was a blanket of peace and love like I'd never felt before. I'm certain it was the Holy Spirit entering me.

According to polling, atheists on average have read the bible more than Christians and know more about Christian theology than Christians do on average. Many Christians, when they finally read the Bible, become atheists. You were trained to think that if an idea feels good to believe, then that is evidence the belief is true. That's provably false, and thinking like that will leave you open to all sorts of exploitation by liars and con artists. After all, you've already fallen for the con that is Christianity.

Great video. Thank you for putting us on to Rosalind Picard.
There's a saying I quote sometimes that this lady described what is meant by that saying. Around timestamp 4 minutes. The saying is in the form of a question. It is this. "Can you recognize the bell of truth when you hear it ring." Real good stuff.
One of the things she said that really struck me was that she said people claim to be educated and yet won't read the Bible for themselves. Yes, this 100 percent! If there was a .001 percent chance that my rejection of God would lead to everlasting torment I would like to think that I would at least look into whether or not what the Bible says is true (if I were an unbeliever).

Bullshit. I sought and did not find, because nothing was there to find.
There is no way for your to claim any atheist is a sheep as opposed to a theist. The atheist accepts what they can know in a reality and know that a theistic God probably doesn't exist and even more so a God probably wouldn't care about the eternal projection of your consciousness in the highly unlikely scenario that God exists. The theist copes with reality and lies to themselves and others about objective reality.
Love this video! Amazing Testimony!
but mate... where did you get your cap? I really liked it!
I like how in the clip with Lex, she talks about if you read it there are parts that can’t be proven, but you just know. That’s the thing that brought me back to the faith.
Truly accepting Christ changed my life too, my fear and anxiety left, he gave me Strength joy and peace. Massive improvement.
There are tons of atheists who, after they left Christianity, found a profound sense of strength, joy, and peace, and were relieved from fear an anxiety brought about by their prior religion. Is that evidence for atheism? Or do facts not care about your feelings?
@weirdwilliam8500 people have rights to make their own decisions who are you to argue anything. Because you don't like hearing something you use the misdirection or misinformation on nothing to back your claim. Of course it's easier not to be self disciplined and do as you wish but this isn't how things work. If all matter is made up of the same subatomic particles then all matter is nothing more than vibrating frequencies of tiny empty space. If this is true then according to the Bible God created heavens and earth god created the universe god created everything you can't have something from nothing, but yet sub atomic particles are 99.999999999999% empty there has to be a source of creation. Through creating something you have purpose to create or else you don't create anything. What would have purpose to create something so vast that humans can't explain yet.
Christ is a moron
Your channel is immensely inspiring - the Case for Christ is all around us, and you wrangling these many subject matter experts and synthesizing an analysis really makes me rethink how I evangelize and conduct myself as a Christian.

This woman is genuine. I enjoyed listening to her journey.
Great journey but zero evidence for her supernatural god.
@@brianmesser12 If there was objective proof, you would be required to worship and accept the Truth. No Good Father wants to force their son/daughter to act and live a certain way, that's slavery. A Good Father will give his children the tools to figure it out for themselves, and at times will reach down and help them back up when they stumble and fall. If you seek, you will find.
With this short life we have a choice, which brings faith and belief into the picture. Meaning we have to be diligent, honest, and patient in our perspectives because there is no authority directly telling us what to believe or have faith in even though there are those who have spent their entire lives earnestly seeking "truth" who have left their musings for us to read and consider (I would start with the Bible, as the genuine woman in the video did). We can't be lazy, which in turn makes us better humans. Who knows, in order for this reality to operate the way it does, faith and belief (in something - even if you claim it is nothing) may be a necessary component.
@kingdomcome1617 this debate is silly. Nobody has any evidence for the supernatural. You first need to show evidence for the supernatural.
@@brianmesser12 Not debating, just having a conversation.
IMO the evidence is there for those who want to see it for what it is. And it is called "super" natural for a reason. What if the only way to prove it is subjectively - and only to yourself?

She seems not only super-smart but also circumspect. That, with her natural warmth, makes for a winning combo when trying to listen for a person's wisdom.
the single most consistent fact about the history of science is; we have always believed our current understanding of reality is far greater than it actually was.
Thats true but is not sufficient to be the basis for inducing a personal God … why not just keep exploring and discovering?

@@asage5801 no insult taken.
But could it be that it is you who have more reading and researching to do? "There is likely no question you can ask that has not been addressed already". And you have read everything? are you more learned than Sy Garte, John Polkinghorne, or Francis Collins? I don't mean this as an insult, but have you pushed the limits of your own echo chamber?
A very eloquent and thoughtful woman. Her testimony is good as it is refreshingly humble
I love that I may never have anything in common with a highly educated highly intelligent person like her, but we do have in common the wonderful experience of knowing God, reading the Bible, and having the exact same experience which is also promised by God to each person that seeks him and loves him with all their heart, soul, mind, strength
Most people have the ability to tap into this universal mind that i call God and find truth. They just have to open their minds and eyes and absorb the information when it comes to light. Where someone is abundant in something, they lack in other areas. To have abundance you have to put time. Key is to find balance 🙏✌️

I really love hearing about her journey, and she is so eloquent and genuine in explaining her thoughts and beliefs. It's quite beautiful to listen to. She explains how science is only one of many different methods of gaining knowledge and finding truth, which is a good insight. I would just like to add that Christianity and Jesus are also only one path of many that can lead you to a deeper understanding of and relationship with God. I personally think that other religions, philosophies, and belief systems are even more beatiful, insightful, and meaningful, and there will always be deeper and deeper levels of truth to seek out, understand, practice, and embody. And aside from regular modes of learning and understanding things on a conscious level, there are vast dimensions of truth that can only be accessed through various active practices, methods, rituals, expanding/altering consciousness, etc. A lot of the deepest levels of knowledge that I've found to be the most profound can almost solely be understood through direct experience. :)
So glad I happened upon this video!!! How encouraging, to hear there are people being saved in Academia!!! ❤❤❤ praise God, He gets all the glory!

Also gotta remember that those who witnessed first hand the good works of the lord were also willing to die for what they’ve seen. Many killed even. And their passion never seized.
This happened to me when I was 21.. it happened to many people in near-death experiences for instance.. they experience something that teaches them that there is a reality beyond the five senses to perceive.. there is a communication with an intelligence that is out of this world..

Definitely not “a lot”. It’s so good. Thank you for sharing her testimony with us. It’s so refreshing to see an intellectual Godly woman of faith highlighted. Intellectual women of faith of are not often seen and it’s hugely comforting for someone like me.
I converted from just being an atheist (which I became after growing up in a Christian church) to having a very high respect for religion and understanding its importance to humanity and culture abroad.
That goes both ways because that influence has been used for good and to enslave people so it would be nice to know a world without incredible beliefs that separate humans.
I’ve seen many people give the same sentiment before turning to Christ. God is softening your heart and preparing you to accept Him. I considered myself agnostic at one point. Although I was deemed “successful with a bright future” by most, I always felt empty. I never knew why until I was at my breaking point, crying out for answers. Once my pride and ego had been shattered, and I was left sobbing on my knees, Jesus revealed himself to me. I pray you don’t have to reach that low of a point to turn to Him, but once you’re saved it won’t matter anyways. I hope you search for answers with all your heart, because God is waiting for you.
@@devenmetcalf6973 thanks for the sentiment. I never stop searching for answers.
It is so beautiful. I may be a Christian, but I LOVE Coexisting♥️ Seeing God through multiple lenses just makes me fall in love with my journey even more. Love me some Islamic philosophy on beauty and Buddhist philosophy on revelation and enlightenment. Other religions strengthen my faith, not challenge it.
@@devenmetcalf6973 A lot of Christians tend to convert when in a vulnerable place. Just because you feel that some piece has been completed in your life doesn't make it true.
I liked it when she said it about her life “I didn’t realise it needed improvement at the time”. It says so much there, i was like that before, i thought i was doing fine but i did actually become better and little step at a time im getting better to my self relationship with God and people around me. Somehow you started to see clearly and its hard to explain to the non believers. I hope and pray they experience it too.
I was a physics major, switched to mathematics due to a ton of God hate in the physics community. Fairly early on in my education I came to the conclusion that scientists get to be the curators of the greatest art museum ever, describing the work of the Artist, the Lord.
I was a former nonbeliever. I also have a science background and support the scientific method. I came to Christ as well. My life was fine at the time. There was no desperation at the time. Then I experienced some real life challenges both personal and physical. It was my year of the biblical Job I call it. Yet, my faith didn’t waver. It grew. If I didn’t have my faith, I don’t think I’d be here. Her description of feeling the truth like a musical instrument is spot on.
Very Strong and Courageous woman...Respect
Listening to this testimony of one person's journey to religion, to Christianity , (to Christ?) was encouraging. Shows the loving patience of her creator. I've read or listened to many such testimonies and are of the opinion that any sincere and honest seeker of the Creator will not be ignored by or hated by Him ("while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us") nor disappointed by his apparent silence. "something in you that sings" is so beautiful yet not the sole communication nor uplift from God. Many other honest seekers have come to similar conclusions after traveling down one of very many false trails and discovering its falsity. However, there is just a single savior-god for us all regardless of where it is that you come from. I pray that she (and readers right here) asks for and receives full forgiveness for sin and continues to sing to the Lord as she grows closer to him emotionally, spiritually and physically (her specialty)
Is that the same loving patience that sits by while children are molested by his priests who never get punished for it?
The way she describes Proverbs, that is exactly how I feel when I read it. There is something about those wise words that sparks something inside you
The Bible, including the book of Proverbs, is a collection of ancient texts written by various authors over centuries. It’s not a scientific textbook or a manual for understanding reality. Emotional responses to these writings are subjective and do not necessarily reflect their literal truth or objective value.
So nice to listen to an intelligent scientist who openly and objectively shares her scientific findings. This is how my journey of God came about as well. The more you look to disprove or prove God’s existence there you will only find Him.❤
I didn't hear any scientific findings, in her reasons for converting. She was in fact very vague and listed categories of reasons rather than specific reasons. She also converted to Christianity her freshman year in college, according to her bio, and so she was clearly not convinced by an advanced scientific analysis of anything.

For those of us who have made the journey and obviously for this beautiful and highly intelligent woman to come to Christ, I just want to thank the Lord our God, for His love, His patience and His desire that all should come to the Father, that none be lost. Praise God.
I just wanted to say thank you for your content! I'm a believer and know and trust in the Lord but your videos help me have a greater understanding of arguments for and against belief in Christ. They present some very thought provoking questions and help to challenge arguments against having faith in Jesus as just a feeling or being intellectually inadequate...thank you!
So thankful for people like her that tell their story. I have always thought only logic counts, but in the end that does not hold up. Becoming christian gave me the option to see beyond logic. And listening to NDE stories just afirm you have to look beyond logic.
Beautiful transformation!! God called to her and she answered him! There was a place in her heart that only God could fill with his spirit. Bless her courage to share!!
My Dad was known as the “Praying scientist” - his book It’s About Time by David W Allan is a brilliant expose in the power of prayer FOR scientists. (He received the idea for the common GPS that we all use now- and of course not given credit- but he doesn’t care - he only wants to use his brain to help mankind & do Gods will ) He was an incredible and goodly father to be raised around!! God bless all in their earth adventures!
So interesting, I share similar sentiments. I met her once because she's my PhD advisor's PhD advisor 😅
She’s so refreshingly intelligent AND humble
