From the host of The Liturgists Podcast and Ask Science Mike comes a story heard by millions of listeners about rediscovering God through science, expanded with available-nowhere-else insights into how neuroscience, physics, and biology help us understand God, spirituality, and ourselves.

Mike McHargue's journey to faith began on the shore of the Pacific Ocean, when a bewildering, seemingly mystical moment motivated him to reexamine the Christian faith he had abandoned two years earlier. But this time, it wasn't theology, scripture, or the arguments of pastors that led him back to God-it was science.

In Finding God in the Waves, "Science Mike" draws on his personal experience to tell the unlikely story of how science led him back to faith-a story with deep implications for the possibility of knowing God in an age of doubt and stunning scientific insight. Among other revelations, we learn what brain scans reveal about what happens when we pray, how fundamentalism affects the psyche, and how God is revealed not only in scripture but in the night sky, in subatomic particles, and in us.
