When placing a stirring rod in a beaker, why does it appear to bend? In this episode, Mr. P. and Dr. Danny Faulkner discuss how "Seeing Isn't Believing" and how our brains can be tricked sometimes when we look at the world around us. The eyes are complex and Mr. P. explains the parts of the eye and how they process light waves that sends an electrical signal to the brain. Learn the difference between an optical illusion and how the refraction of light can alter what we think we see.

Colossians 2:1-10 reminds us not to be deceived by plausible arguments or ways of human thinking. Rather than those things, we need to look to Christ because it is in him that we find all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. The bible is the starting point in every area of our lives.
