What happens when science and faith look at the same universe? In this episode of Climate Brewing, Susan Oxley sits down with retired NASA scientist and Community of Christ minister Steve Dunagan to explore the remarkable intersection of earth science, climate change, faith, and a lifelong curiosity about creation. Steve shares how his NASA career led him from aeronautical research into Earth science and climate research—and why understanding creation can also be a way of understanding the Creator. Along the way, he reflects on the challenges facing our planet, the importance of paying attention to what science reveals, and the practices of gratitude, spiritual formation, and Christian community that continue to give him hope.
