LABC Update – Monday, April 4, 2022

Family,

Easter is now thirteen days away. There is much to anticipate.

The relationship between theology and science is a nuanced one. In the article I am forwarding today colleague Mitch Randell reports on the recent Biologos 2022 Faith and Science conference.

I really like the quote from Oxford theologian Alistar McGrath  – “My theology will not tell me how far away the stars are and my science will not tell me why I matter.”  In his words I hear echoes of the the late paleontologist Stephen Jay Gould – “Science can give us the age of rocks. Faith can give us the Rock of Ages.”
