By Christy Monson

0.0 (0 reviews)

Summary

Scientists of Faith introduces young readers to thirty remarkable men and women from various countries, eras, and scientific fields, all united by a strong faith in God. The book explores how faith and science can coexist harmoniously, highlighting stories such as Robert T. Bakker, a Christian minister and paleontologist who revolutionised views on dinosaurs; Gregor Mendel, the monk who uncovered genetics; and Andre-Marie Ampere, whose belief supported him through personal challenges. This collection demonstrates that faith can inspire and empower a scientist's explorations.

Description

Can faith in God and belief in science coexist? Might science even deepen our wonder at God's works? Absolutely!

In Scientists of Faith, readers will meet thirty brilliant men and women from different countries, time periods, and scientific disciplines who all share one thing in common: an unshakeable faith in God.

From Robert T. Bakker, a Christian minister and paleontologist who changed the world's thinking about warm-blooded dinosaurs; to Gregor Mendel, the monk-scientist who discovered the hidden world of genetics; to Andre-Marie Ampere, the eponymous explorer of "amps" and electricity whose faith in God sustained him through family crises; Scientists of Faith reveals that faith in God isn't just compatible with science—it can be a scientist's most powerful force in the journey of discovery.
