It can be a shock in our culture for a Christian to encounter evolutionary biology and conversely for a Darwinian to encounter biblical Christianity. Can a devout Christian with a high view of scripture accept scientific views of evolution? Some proponents of biblical Christianity or Darwinian evolution are quick to claim their incompatibility. However, as strong believers in both Christ and the sciences, we find more harmony than friction between them. If you or someone you care about sees a tension between evolution and Christian faith, we want to help you understand their interaction. This book, written by a biologist, a pastor/biblical scholar, and a theologian, addresses questions from the gifts of each of their disciplines. We acknowledge the insights and authority of the Bible, explain the science of evolution, explore their mutual relevance, and argue that holding the two together deepens our understanding of the world and its creator.

Industry Reviews

“What about Evolution? is one of those rare resources that sheds more light than heat when addressing the controversial issue of the relationship between evolution and faith. Writing from their own disciplinary areas of expertise, the authors guide us through a complex thicket of issues—biological, theological, biblical, and pastoral—with both wisdom and grace. An excellent resource for you—and surely others you know!”
—Todd Wilson, Cofounder & President, The Center for Pastor Theologians

“A scientist, a theologian, and a pastor write about evolution. Instead of the entrée to a witty joke, What about Evolution? is a serious invitation to learn more about both science and the Bible. Humility, gracious dialogue, and fellowship take center stage as the authors respond to challenging questions from the science vs. faith conversation. This book supports anyone searching for faithful and fruitful ways to converse about evolution and Christianity.”
—Sarah Bodbyl Roels, Faculty Developer, Colorado School of Mines

“This book tackles some of the most difficult questions that emerge at the interface of evolution and Christianity. It is technically sound and nuanced in dealing with scientific, biblical, and theological issues, yet it remains accessible and pastoral at its core. The authors demonstrate the importance of engaging well with these issues and model how this can be done with humility in the context of a community with different experiences, perspectives, and concerns.”
—Ryan Bebej, Associate Professor of Biology, Calvin University
