Scientists Talk Religion Around the Globe by Elaine Howard Ecklund and David R. Johnson

All around us we hear public discussion about faith and science. Should creation be taught in public schools alongside evolution? Is our faith literally all in our brain? Did the universe begin with a big bang, the hand of God, or both?

Have you ever wondered how–as a thinking Christian– to engage these questions with wisdom and compassion?

During the fall of 2012, St. Andrews entered into a series of conversations through sermons, adult and youth education, as well as guest speakers, that all centered on learning as a community how we can talk about issues related to science and faith with compassion and wisdom in the midst of a fraught world.
