Over the last 100 years, scientists in various fields have persuasively argued that the Earth was formed by natural processes operating over long periods of time. How is a Christian to reconcile these ideas with the Genesis creation account? Doesn't the Bible teach that God spoke the Earth into existence fully formed just 6,000 years ago? Dr Ken Coulson answers these questions by affirmign the legitimacy of large-scale processes without denying the young-age view. This book will enable the Christian to authentically and passionately portray science in a positive light, while at the same time easing some of the tension that currrently exists between modern science and a faithful interpretation of Genesis 1.--Back cover.
