What about Evolution?

Science & Faith

“This book tackles some of the most difficult questions that emerge at the interface of evolution and Christianity. It is technically sound and nuanced in dealing with scientific, biblical, and theological issues, yet it remains accessible and pastoral at its core. The authors demonstrate the importance of engaging well with these issues and model how this can be done with humility in the context of a community with different experiences, perspectives, and concerns.”

When Did Sin Begin?

Theology

“In this timely book, Haarsma deals with the apparent dissonance between the doctrine of original sin and the biological evolution of humanity. Throughout the text, he systematically works through a variety of scenarios related to the origin of sin within an evolutionary context, clearly delineating the subtle differences between each approach and carefully working out the theological ramifications as well. Rather than narrowing in and promoting one particular point of view, Haarsma has laid out the parameters for a multitude of options, setting the stage for the reader to consider various possibilities. This book offers much food for thought and serves as a model for how we can wrestle well with difficult questions like this in the church.”
