Dr Samuel Wilkinson Reveals The SCIENCE of Purposeful Living

Are we spiritually lost in the modern world? In this thought-provoking episode, Dr. Sam Wilkinson dives deep into the tension between faith and evolution, exploring how these seemingly opposing forces shape our sense of purpose. As society grapples with a growing crisis of meaning, Dr. Wilkinson reveals the hidden impact of evolutionary patterns on our relationships, personal development, and search for significance.

Is the disconnection we feel today a byproduct of science, or a deeper spiritual void? Join John R. Miles and Dr. Wilkinson as they unpack how micro choices, family bonds, and everyday struggles influence the larger quest for a fulfilling life.

Don’t miss this powerful conversation — it might just change the way you view your purpose.
