Description for A Worldview Approach to Science and Scripture
Review �Carol Hill�s book is terrific and I am happy to endorse it. A Worldview Approach to Science and Scripture provides an excellent integration of God�s revelation in His written word in Genesis to His revelation in His created world as seen through the eyes of science. Her presentation is both scholarly and accessible to laymen. This book is extremely timely, given the recent Barna surveys (2018) that indicate that the most common reason that students today are losing their faith is over perceived conflicts between faith and science.� (Walter Bradley, Emeritus Professor, Texas A&M University and Baylor University 2019-10-10)�This book does a much-needed service for all Christians troubled by the relation of their faith to science. While other writers have also taken the position that Genesis is to be understood from the standpoint of the worldview of its own time, Hill has spelled out just how to do that in nontechnical language and convincing detail.� (Roy Clouser, Emeritus Professor, College of New Jersey; author, Myth of Religious Neutrality 2019-10-10)�Carol Hill takes both Scripture and science seriously, affirming the inspiration of the Bible and the evidence for biological evolution. She shows that the evolution of Homo sapiens as a group 200,000 years ago can fit with a historical Adam and Eve living around 5000 B.C. This view is an important option for the church to consider alongside other recent work on human origins. Hill provides a beautiful presentation in this full-color book.� (Deborah B. Haarsma, President of Biologos, coauthor of Origins 2019-10-10)�In most discussions or debates about cosmic and human origins and how the Book of Genesis figures in such conversations, we are accustomed to looking back from our vantage point to figure things out. But what if we tried to put ourselves in the shoes of the people who produced a text like Genesis? What if we tried to see the universe from inside their worldview and look out onto the world then through this lens instead of only looking back from now? Carol Hill helps us to see that taking such a vantage point may be a key way to unlock the meaning of an ancient witness like Genesis, and readers will benefit from this unique perspective on the larger issues at hand in all such considerations.� (Scott Hoezee, Director of the Center for Excellence in Preaching, Calvin Theological Seminary 2019-10-10)�In this book, Carol Hill, a seasoned geologist, combines her expertise and her knowledge and love for the Bible to address some of the most vexing issues of our time regarding the origins of the earth, animal and human life, offering some guidance on how to read Genesis in a responsible way in the light of the latest scientific developments. Her worldview or contextual approach brings the reader face to face with archeological, biblical and scientific data that enable one to gain a new appreciation for what the Bible is trying to teach. This is a very helpful tool!� (James Hoffmeier, Author of Israel in Egypt and Ancient Israel in Sinai 2019-10-10)�As the title indicates, this book stakes out the claim for a �worldview� approach to synthesizing the biblical witness with the findings of the natural sciences. In so doing it occupies the terrain somewhere between old-earth creationism and evolutionary creationism. Hill�s approach accepts the evolutionary paradigm while also strongly affirming the historicity of Genesis 1-11. She writes with remarkable clarity and charity. Without agreeing with all the positions set forth, I have to say this is one of the best one-volume works on the creation/evolution dialogue in print.� (Kenneth Keathley, Theology Professor, SBTS; author of 40 Questions About Creation and Evolution 2019-10-10)�Building on her expertise in geology, Carol Hill argues attractively for a �worldview� approach to the book of Genesis. Her common-sense approach shows the errors of many common views, setting out the context for the biblical records.� (Alan Millard, Emeritus Professor of Hebrew & Ancient Semitic Languages,University of Liverpool 2019-10-10)�A Worldview Approach to Science and Scripture makes an important contribution to the discussion of the compatibility of scientific and biblical understandings which will be helpful in both the Christian community and general culture. Professional geologist Carol Hill draws the reader into the world of ancient Mesopotamia and the land of Eden, both culturally and scientifically, in order to provide context for interpreting the early chapters of Genesis. Through the plentiful use of photographs, maps, and tables, the book offers rich new information and insights for addressing some very old questions � regarding origins of the living world, a global flood, and more.� (Michael L. Peterson, Professor of Philosophy and Religion, Asbury Theological Seminary 2019-10-10) Read more About the Author Carol Hill is a geologist who has worked in the Grand Canyon and Carlsbad Cavern for over 40 years.
