🎙️ Ten Talents: Sir Isaac Newton — Faith and Science

Byline: Keith Koo, Host of Ten Talents

🌟 Episode Overview

Sir Isaac Newton is remembered as the father of modern science — the man who gave us the laws of motion and gravity, reshaped mathematics, and transformed how we see the cosmos. But what many don’t realize is that Newton wrote more about theology and Scripture than about science.

In this episode of Ten Talents: Multiplying Impact, Adding Value, Keith Koo explores Newton’s life through two lenses: Newton the scientist, admired even by skeptics, and Newton the theologian, who saw his discoveries as evidence of God’s design. Along the way, Keith shares personal stories and apologetics insights that show how Newton’s faith opens doors for conversations today.

🔑 Key Themes & Insights
Newton’s groundbreaking scientific contributions and why they earned him admiration across belief systems
How Newton wove faith and reason together — seeing science as a window into God’s creation
Why modern portrayals often downplay Newton’s theology, and what that means for today’s conversations
Personal anecdotes from Keith’s own apologetics journey with scientists, skeptics, and business leaders
Biblical reflections that echo Newton’s conviction that “the heavens declare the glory of God”

📖 Scriptures Featured
Psalm 19:1–2
Colossians 1:16–17
Romans 1:20
Matthew 5:16
1 Peter 3:15

💡 Final Takeaway

Newton’s life reminds us that faith and reason are not enemies but allies. He multiplied his talents — scientific and spiritual — to point others to God. Our challenge today is to steward our own talents with the same humility and purpose.
