How the Bible and Science Fit Together

Did life arise through evolution, or did God create the world? Creationists and the "New Atheists" around Richard Dawkins at least agree that both cannot be true at the same time. Many people who feel drawn to the Christian faith wonder: "How can I believe in the Bible if it means I have to reject science?" But is that really the case? Do we really have to choose between science and religion?

Timothy Keller aims to help both believers and seekers reconcile science and faith. In this concise essay, he provides answers to some of the most common questions he has been asked in this context:
• If one holds the Bible as the word of God, must the creation accounts be understood literally?
• Is evolution not a "theory of everything" that explains the world without God?
• If life arose through evolution, can Adam and Eve be historical figures?

For all those who do not want to choose between science and religion! With a foreword by Christoph Raedel.
