The Sacred Chain: How Understanding Evolution Leads to Deeper Faith

Product description

• How can we hold the Bible as a sacred text and yet reconcile modern science with it?
• By condensing noteworthy events in the history of our universe into one calendar week, what can we learn about God’s creative process and priorities, and where humans fit in?
• If humans are created in the image of God, what does evolution have to teach us about our species and our place in creation?
• What about the soul? How can we understand our transcendent qualities if the human body is the product of evolution?
• How does evolutionary science help us understand how God might use pain and suffering for important and good purposes?
• Does it have to be one or the other—science or religion—or is there a third way, one that not only preserves faith in the face of modern science, but leads to a stronger, more relevant, and more authentic faith?
