Publisher's summary

Science and faith can - and do - support each other.

Science and Christianity are often presented as opposites, when in fact the order of the universe and the complexity of life powerfully testify to intelligent design. With this comprehensive resource that includes the latest research, you'll witness how the findings of scientists provide compelling reasons to acknowledge the mind and presence of a creator.

Featuring more than 45 entries by top-caliber experts, you'll better understand....

  • How scientific concepts like intelligent design are supported by evidence
  • The scientific findings that support the history and accounts found in the Bible
  • The biases that lead to scientific information being presented as a challenge - rather than a complement - to Christianity

Whether you're looking for answers to your own questions or seeking to explain the case for intelligent design to others, The Comprehensive Guide to Science and Faith is an invaluable apologetic tool that will help you explore and analyze the relevant facts, research, and theories in light of biblical truth.

A Thought-filledTreasure

I cannot imagine a more thorough, balanced explanation of the how to view the natural world from a creationist perspective. The authors have done a magnificent job of affirming sound scientific discovery, supporting it with biblical scripture all the while staying true to God’s holiness and the redeeming work of Christ’s death and resurrection on our behalf. Tremendous resource to help educate and inform those who have different perspectives on scripture and/or science. I look forward to revisiting many of these essays and explanations as I seek to grow and solidify my own understanding of these incredibly interesting and important topics.

A brilliant, comprehensive summary of ID

As the adequacy of neo darwinism increasingly fails to explain what science is discovering in the cosmos and biology, this books gives the reader a good introduction to intelligent design.

A thoroughly enjoyable listen to some of the leading advocates of ID. Definitely a recommended book for anyone wishing to have a good introduction to, or broadening of the subject of intelligent design.

A detailed look at science and Christianity

Up to date, and covers lots of important topics. The narration is good (although a couple of words seemed to have usual pronunciation such as platonism – but lots of technical terms were spot on - well done).
It might have been nice to have a chapter response by someone who disagrees.
