Can We Believe in Creation and Evolution?: Questions Science Asks of Scripture and Scripture Asks of Science

Many Christians remain skeptical about whether science’s current old-earth, evolutionary consensus properly respects the Bible. And many scientists’ concerns about Scripture hinder their faith.
