This is an adventure that began almost fourteen billion years ago,
one that so often threatened to fail. It's truly a miracle I'm
still here. Despite everything, I wouldn't have wanted to miss one
second of it. And the best is yet to come. With the help of an
extraordinary narrator, you're invited to discover the wonder and
drama of the history of the cosmos. In this story we follow the
journey of one proton who comes into existence at the beginning of
creation and makes it all the way through history to today. By
becoming a part of atoms and molecules that turn up at some of the
universe's most important moments, our friend Proton witnesses
emerging galaxies, the origin of life, its evolution into a wild
diversity of life forms, the first human beings, the birth and life
of Jesus, the beginnings of the Christian church, all the way up to
the present day. Through it all, the mysterious, seemingly
unbelievable plans of the Creator continue to unfold. . . .
Combining its authors' mind-bending scientific knowledge,
storytelling skills, and insights from theology, Dawn provides a
fresh look at the fundamentals of cosmology, evolutionary biology,
and the good news of God in one overarching adventure-in the form
of a gripping story. Readers who love both science and Scripture
will discover an engaging, thought-provoking tale that reminds us
we each have a big place in God's plan of creation-even if we're
very, very small. BioLogos Books on Science and Christianity invite
us to see the harmony between the sciences and biblical faith on
issues including cosmology, biology, paleontology, evolution, human
origins, the environment, and more.
Fin Whittle is sixteen and he likes guys. A fact which seems to be complicating his life.
One minute Fin's kissing the godlike Jesse; the next he s been cruelly outed. His family's response? To up sticks in search of a 'fresh start'.
A fresh start won't change the truth of who Fin is. Obviously. But it does introduce him to the best squad in town: kick-ass Poppy, her on-off girlfriend June and the super cute, super irresistible Rye.
Fin soon has a serious crush. And Rye might just feel the same way. But Fin's parents aren't happy. If their son won't change his 'lifestyle', they ll force him onto the straight and narrow . . . by way of 'conversion therapy'. An outrageous plan is needed to face down the haters and to give Fin and Rye (and their fireflies) a chance at the happy-ever-after their story deserves . . .
From moonlit meet-ups to vintage diners, pride parades to a passion for old vinyl, Fin & Rye & Fireflies is a gloriously upbeat tale of being true to yourself no matter what.
