New Books in the Church Library – The Intersection of Faith and Science

Faith and ScienceBLOG

 

 

 

 

Interested in learning more about the intersection of faith and science after our recent Sunday events?

John Polkinghorne, internationally known as both a theologian and a physicist, has written extensively on this topic.

New to the church library are his:

Quarks, Chaos & Christianity; Questions to Science and Religion (215 P)

Questions of Truth; 51 Responses to Questions about God, Science, and Belief (215 P)

The Way the World is; the Christian Perspective of a Scientist (215 P)

Also, Ian G. Barbour, another distinguished figure in the field, has written

When Science meets Religion; Enemies, Strangers, or Partners? (215 B)

The question/answer format of the first two titles above make them useful for browsing &/or answering a particular concern, but all of them are accessible to the general reader. The authors argue that Christianity presents a credible and compelling worldview that can be taken seriously even while fully understanding the importance of science.
