Foreword
“If you are . . . wondering if there is any way that Christian faith and evidence-based science can work together, Janet Kellogg Ray is an able guide. She is a biology teacher and a Christ-follower who invites you to walk alongside her in her journey and provides an engaging overview of the views, evidence, and arguments on origins science.”
Science & Faith
“Many have read Ian Barbour’s four modes of relating science and theology: conflict, independence, dialogue, or integration. Theologian Ross Hastings reflects on another mode: coinherence. Drawing on the coinherent nature of the Trinity itself, Hastings brings an explicitly Christ-centered approach to a conversation that too often degenerates to mere deism. Hastings’ in-depth theological work, informed by his background in chemistry, is a valuable and welcome resource for understanding science in light of Christian faith.”
Science & Faith
“Theologians have long described Scripture and nature as two books of God's revelation; now Pastor John Van Sloten digs deep into this truth. He actively reads the two books together, with 'the Bible shining light on creation and creation bringing deeper understanding to the Scriptures.' John introduces fascinating examples from many fields of science and medicine and draws thought-provoking parallels to theological truths. He invites us to engage with more than our reason—to ponder God's creation in our hearts and turn in worship to the Author of it all.”
Apologetics
“Hand this book to a seeker who is struggling with Scripture or to a young person who is ready to give up on Christianity. Dan Kimball walks through the hardest passages of Scripture and the ways they are mocked on social media. On science, he shows how texts like Genesis 1 were not meant to answer our modern questions about evolution but to teach the ancient Israelites about the one true God and the goodness of creation.”

New Explorations in the Lost World of Genesis
Science & Faith
“Fifteen years ago, John Walton taught us that the Bible was written for us but not to us. His Lost World books open our eyes to the ancient cultures of the Old Testament, with a wealth of new insights that deepen our understanding of God's Word while upholding scriptural authority. For those who know Walton, this book compiles his latest thinking and shows a humble scholar at work. Much of the book is responses to common questions, a friendly dialogue format accessible for first-time readers.”

“choose to keep talking—because of Christ. This book shows the hard work needed to love one’s enemy and seek the unity of believers. This is the authentic dialogue that our churches need today.”

Science & Faith
“This book is a model of Christian discernment, considering the latest scientific research in the light of Christian faith to address challenging questions of our day. Barrett and King explain the established findings of evolutionary psychology (EP) while shedding the pop psychology and anti-God baggage that is often added to it. Yet their goal is not merely showing the intellectual compatibility of EP with Christianity but 'placing evolutionary psychology in the service of Christian theology' to address larger questions. By better understanding human nature and the traits that make us unique from animals, we can better fulfill our purpose as God's image bearers and work more effectively to build communities that thrive in the ways God intended. The book's readable style, vivid examples, and helpful study guide make it a great book for students, book clubs, science fans, and pastors.”
