Questions asked: 

1.	Conversations about science and Christianity are often more polarised in the US than in the UK. What advice do you have for Christians in America?
2.	What are some of your favorite analogies or images for explaining science and faith topics with laypeople? 
3.	Are you working on any projects now?
4.	What science and faith topics do you find most exciting?
5.	What science and faith topics do you find most troubling or vexing?
6.	Having started your career as a physicist, what advice do you have for young scientists that are Christians?
7.	What sort of Christian community did you have as a physicist? Were there any regular gatherings of Christian academics?
8.	Some people balk at the idea of an eternal afterlife for scientific reasons—they believe that physics precludes the possibility. Is it possible to imagine a different physics that would allow for immortality, incorruptibility and God being all-in-all? How might such a physics differ from our own?  
 If the resurrection of Jesus was the beginning of the New Creation ex vetere (transforming the old creation), how might we imagine the `new physics’ interacts with our own between the time of the resurrection and the ascension?
9.	What did you like best about being a physicist?
10.	What do you like best about being a theologian?
