Can Christians take seriously the claims of modern science without
compromising their theological integrity? Can theology contribute
to our understanding of the natural world without reducing the
doctrine of creation to a few flashpoint issues? While there is no
shortage of works that treat the intersection between science and
religion, little attention has been paid to the theological
reception of developments of modern science. Yet a deeper look at
the history of Christian thought offers a wealth of insight from
theological giants for navigating this complex terrain. Science and
the Doctrine of Creation examines how influential modern
theologians-from the turn of the nineteenth century through the
present-have engaged the scientific developments of their times in
light of the doctrine of creation. In each chapter a leading
Christian thinker introduces readers to the unique contributions of
a key theologian in responding to the assumptions, claims, and
methods of science. Chapters include Kevin J. Vanhoozer on T. F.
Torrance Katherine Sonderegger on Karl Barth Craig G. Bartholomew
on Abraham Kuyper Christoph Schwoebel on Wolfhart Pannenberg Edited
by Geoffrey Fulkerson and Joel Chopp of the Carl F. H. Henry Center
for Theological Understanding, this book grows out of the Henry
Center's Creation Project, which promotes biblically faithful and
scientifically engaged dialogue around the doctrine of creation.
From Warfield's critical appraisal of Darwinian evolution to
Pannenberg's pneumatological reflections on field theory, these
studies explore how Christians can think more carefully about the
issues at stake using the theological resources of their
traditions.
