We are wit­ness­ing an aggres­sive attack on the cred­i­bil­ity of the Chris­t­ian faith. Chris­tians are increas­ingly called to embrace Dar­win­ian evolution—or acknowl­edge that they are alto­gether opposed to science.

But for the con­trib­u­tors to this vol­ume, this is a false premise. Com­mit­ted to the author­ity of Scrip­ture, the need for care­ful exe­ge­sis, and the impor­tance of rig­or­ous sci­en­tific inves­ti­ga­tion, these thir­teen sci­en­tists and the­olo­gians offer valu­able per­spec­tives on a con­tro­ver­sial area of debate for con­cerned Chris­tians who are deter­mined to draw their own conclusions.

“This is a most help­ful com­pi­la­tion, which is designed to make one think very seri­ously about the whole issue of evo­lu­tion and the Bible. To those who love the Scrip­tures, and seek to be faith­ful to them, this will prove enor­mously help­ful.” —Rt. Rev. Wal­lace Benn
