Named a 2007 Book of Distinction by the Sir John Templeton Foundation. The special edition of this award winning book celebrates the 200th birthday of Charles Darwin. Since, even before, the publication of Darwin's seminal work on evolution, science and religion have often been at odds. Even today culture wars continue to rage. How can I be faithful to God and fully enjoy the progress of science? Who is Charles Darwin and what did he actually say? Can you believe in God and evolution? Does teaching evolution corrupt our social values? How can you connect science and faith? Can science be a Christian vocation? So how can we interpret the creation story in the Bible? Authors Ted Peters and Martinez Hewlett give a balanced discussion of the impact of evolution to help church leaders understand the values at stake. They make the convincing case that Christians can connect their faith in God with a scientific understanding of evolution with integrity.
Today's seminary students often come to their graduate work with little or no knowledge of science or theology; yet they most certainly have opinions about evolution, as will their future congregants. How can such students plunge into the whirlpool of controversy that surrounds the heated debates between science and theology? How can they negotiate the often ideological waters of Darwinism, NeoDarwinism, Social Darwinism, Sociobiology, Young Earth Creationism, Intelligent Design, and Theistic Evolution? Here the authors answer these questions, offer a bridge for understanding the inner coherence and passion of each stream of thought, and lead to a constructive proposal: evolution in natural history is part of God's method for carrying the creation from its origin to its consummation in the eschatological new creation.
It is an astonishing discovery: a bloodstained burial shroud entombed in the crumbling walls of a historic French Monastery. Carbon dating concludes the fabric is from the time of Christ. A molecular biologist conducts a daring experiment: the cloning of genetic material recovered from the cloth. Now two men—Father Laurent Carriere and scientist Josh Francis—are plunged into the center of a worldwide religious and political power struggle. But even as Washington and the Vatican vie for control of the relic, members of a secret society take steps to reclaim the holy artifact they have sworn to protect—by any means necessary.  Selected by the Literary Guild® and the Doubleday Book Club®.
