He is also a former economist-turned associate pastor at Christ the King Presbyterian Church. In this episode, ATN host Paul Taylor and Nathan delve into a wide variety of topics encompassing faith, technology, and science. Join them as they talk about the Christian perspective on creation, Nathan's work with Harvard Medical School's pgED project, and the role of Christianity in shaping technology ethics--both in academia and industry.\n \nNATHAN BARCZI\nNathan Barczi has served as Associate Pastor at Christ the King Presbyterian Church since 2014, where he was awarded the John Stott award from the Creation Project at the Henry Center, a grant that supported him and his congregation in a year exploring the doctrine of creation in an age of science with eminent scientists and theologians.  He is a cohort facilitator for the Boston Fellows, and a fellow of the Center for Pastor Theologians.  His Christianity Today article about his work with Harvard geneticists exploring the bioethics of gene editing won an Evangelical Press Association Award.
