Earth Created: In God's Hand
Study of Genesis 1-3 and related scripture in light of theology and science shows that faith experience illuminates God's hidden heart in the Bible and God's hidden hand in nature. This book clarifies some of the issues that are recognized between how many read and interpret the Bible and our current knowledge of science. It provides insight into how we develop our understanding of the world that is created and the word of God. The book considers some speculative ideas to stimulate thinking outside the boxes by too narrow a focus on religious views or scientific dogma. The desired result is a larger picture of reality in which there is unity of disparate parts. This is the journey that the reader is invited to take. The results of my own journey are summarized in a final diagram. I trust that it will be helpful.
