Additional text

“This is a great book to hand to a Christian student or friend who is asking questions about evolution. Denis Lamoureux, a pioneer of Christian engagement with evolution as both a theologian and a scientist, roots his arguments in the classic doctrine of the two books---God’s word and God’s world. But even more than that, his pastoral heart comes through in these pages as he shares his own story. Denis shows that people don’t have to choose between Scripture and nature but can say “Yes!” to both.”
