The Passionate Professor | Dr James Tour
Playback speed
James Tour is not your average university professor - not only is he a professor of three different fields (chemistry, materials science, and nanoengineering) at Rice University in Houston, Texas, but he’s also started 17 companies, has many hundreds of patents, and has written over 850 scientific publications. However, those achievements are not what he’s most excited about; rather, it’s sharing his deeply-rooted faith and seeing thousands over the years coming to Jesus, including one of his Nobel Prize-winning colleagues. It’s a stunning interview!▶️ Watch this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/rX2iMmmD8mwJesus and Science Foundation: jesusandscience.org Dr. Tour's website: jmtour.comYouTube | Facebook | Instagram | X.comDr. Tour's weekly email newsletter.He has read the book ‘The Gospel Focus of Charles Spurgeon by Steven J.
