Religion & Spirituality
It was more than four hundred years ago that Francis Bacon, now recognized as the architect of the scientific method, made the claim that God has given us two books to study: Scripture and creation. God’s Word and God’s world. He believed that not only was there a beautiful synthesis between faith and science, but that they, in different ways, give us a fuller revelation of who God is. Times, however, have changed. According to a recent poll, 55% of Americans believe that there is an inherent conflict between faith and science. How should we respond? What does Christianity teach us about the interaction of faith and science?Resources:PursuingFaith.orgBooks Mentioned in this Episode:Cosmic Chemistry by John LennoxCan Science Explain Everything by John LennoxWhere the Conflict Really Lies: Science, Religion and Naturalism by Alvin PlantingaScience and Religion: a New Introduction by Alister McGrathThe Great Partnership: Science, Religion, and the Search for Meaning by Jonathan SacksWe'd love to hear from you! info@pursuingfaith.org
