How do we navigate the
anti-Christian views of science? This book helps build a Christian apologetics
approach to evolutionary science. I recommend starting this book at the end. Why?
In the last chapter, the author explains his coming to faith from a scientific
and atheistic viewpoint, while sharing the scientific community’s inherent bias
against a Christian worldview. This background is helpful to understand as you
move through the book’s concepts. In this volume, scientist and prolific author
of home school science curriculum, Dr. Jay Wile provides four chapters outlining
scientific facts that support design theory. He also evaluates the question of
miracles, highlights the beauty of nature—all while pointing to the Designer
and Creator. Each chapter includes end notes and diagrams. You’ll also find a
chart of 45 messianic prophecies and Bible predictions. 118 pgs, pb.
Publisher's Description of Reasonable Faith
Reasonable Faith is a concise, easy-to-read book that outlines the scientific evidence that supports the validity of the Christian Faith. It begins by highlighting the physical, chemical, and biological evidence indicating that the world was designed. The author demonstrates that science points unmistakably to the existence of God. He then uses historical, archaeological, and medical evidence to show that this God is the God of the Bible. This book contains powerful arguments that will challenge the non-Christian and bolster the faith of Christians.
Suggested by Dr. Wile for science-oriented students, these supplemental books offer more depth for interested students. Resources are completely optional and do not replace the textbook content.
