In 2022, a Bible passage struck Krauland — a one-time atheist, or one who does not believe in God — in a way that compelled him to begin developing his latest work.

“It was Matthew 7:13-14 … where Jesus himself says (with regard to the afterlife) that we should ‘strive to enter through the narrow gate because the gate is wide and the road is broad that leads to destruction, and many enter through the broad gate but small is the gate and narrow is the road that leads to life, and only a few will find it,’” he said.

The Bridge From Science to God

If you believe in science, then you will believe in God. You just don’t know it yet.

The fact is that during these past twenty-five years or so, scientists in the fields of Astronomy, Astrophysics, Chemistry, Particle Physics, Molecular Biology, and Biotechnology Engineering, have pushed back the frontiers of human knowledge to the point where the role of the divine is now undeniable. They have clearly developed the scientific evidence to prove God is real. He is present, and He is aware of us.

Once you see this evidence and accept this truth, then your life is in for some wonderful changes. You will accomplish more than you ever thought was possible.
