about his book, God and Evolution: A Faith-Based Understanding.
If you have a fast internet connection, check out his educational (and
entertaining) powerpoint asking "How did it all happen?" (it's
74 MB, yes that's MB not kB) and also "Time and Eternity" (16
MB). |

from a press release by Eastern
University:
God and
Evolution: A Faith-Based Understanding getting good reviews; nominated for
national award. ...
"There
is a way for God to be both our God – the God of the Bible and the God
of Christian
faith – and the God of so-called cave men
and
dinosaurs. Part of the purpose of this book is to present and defend this
position — to suggest new ways of looking at old things, to offer a perspective
of faith
that does not ignore facts or compromise scientific integrity." David
L. Wilcox
