Synopsis

Be curious. Stay reverent. Focus on the details. Delight in Creation.
Whether we realize it or not, these attitudes shape our ability to discover and understand truth, both in nature and the Bible.

We live in a noisy world where loud opinions about science are common. This is also true in the Church, where modern science is both admired and doubted, depending on the topic. What are your questions about the world? How does the Bible help you to understand them (if at all)?

In this resource, discover the important attitudes we need to make sense of God's works in nature, and God's words in Scripture. Rather than teach us what to think, the essays in this book emphasize concepts and skills that help us know howto think. Dive in and discover a rich toolset for thinking about creation, modern science, and the Bible.

Topics include:

  • Historical Christian views about science
  • A Christian theology of nature
  • The "two books" of revelation: Nature and Scripture
  • Introduction to the goal and practice of science
  • Introduction to the world and purpose of Scripture
  • Resolving conflicts effectively


Epic Science, Ancient Faith is intended for anyone who has questions about science and Christian faith. Discussion questions and visual aids make this a perfect resource for group study. Companion site at EpicScienceAncientFaith.org.
