The Language of Science and Faith

by Karl W. Giberson and Francis S. Collins

c2011

As Christians, do we have to choose between affirming that everything exists because of God or accepting the explanation of nature by science which does not include God in the picture? Giberson and Collins claim that we do not have to choose one or the other, for science does not discount the Bible, and faith does not reject science. Their dialogue explains how God cares for and interacts with his creation, while science offers a reliable way to understand the world God made. The authors clear up the erroneous conclusions of Christians and atheists about science and evolution by sharing the results of research in physics, geology, astronomy, and genetics. This book will become a classic for those who read it with an open mind and are willing to wrestle with questions about the relationship of modern science with the Christian faith.
