From a NASA scientist comes a fascinating tour through the cosmos, revealing God’s infinite and wondrous presence in the universe.
In this thought-provoking devotional, Conrad invites readers to explore the vastness of outer space through both the lens of faith and the rigor of science. From the life cycles of stars to the gravitational pull of the moon, each devotion weaves together scripture, scientific insight, reflection questions, and prayers—offering a fresh perspective on how the heavens truly proclaim God's glory.
Drawing from her work with NASA’s Perseverance Rover and her experience in ministry, Conrad bridges the gap between the material and the spiritual, encouraging readers to embrace both curiosity and contemplation. Whether pondering the expanding universe, the delicate balance of Earth’s ecosystems, or the mystery of the Trinity through the dimensions of space, this devotional illuminates how science and faith point together toward the divine. Perfect for seekers, scientists, and stargazers alike, A Believer's Journey through the Stars is an invitation to stand in awe of God’s creation—and to find deeper meaning in its beauty.
