The Origins Debate: Evangelical perspectives on creation, evolution, and intelligent design

Description

For centuries, Christians have argued exactly what God did �in the beginning.� If this were only a question of science, it would not be so contentious. But theology and science shape one another, and there are few easy answers. This key collection of essays presents the current state of the debate, showing how faithful evangelicals have come to their respective views, and what is at stake for the church.
