Why Science and Faith Belong Together: Stories of Mutual Enrichment

As we try to understand ourselves and the world we live in all too often we look first to science-and then if gaps remain in our understanding we try to fill the gaps with reference to God and our faith. Such a god-of-the-gaps approach has a long history and is sadly alive and well today. This book was written to provide an alternative approach posing this basic question: How can educated Christians maintain their intellectual honesty and at the same time be faithful both to Scripture and to science? This book provides examples of some of the liveliest science vs. faith issues today and suggestsways to think constructively about each of them.
