OriginScience.com - Editor's Story - How I went kicking and screaming from the traditional view of Creation to an old earth view.  From anger and confusion to a crisis of faith and finally, to acceptance
of the facts, the way are, and not how I wish them to be...
   


   
Testimony of a Formerly 'Young Earth' Missionary - An urgent plea for reason from someone who recognizes the danger of teaching YEC, among them, "setting our kids up "for a crisis of faith later in life."
 




 
 
Coming to Peace with Science by Darrel Falk - a Christian biology professor shares his view of theistic evolution. 
  
Whether you plan to get the book or not, if you read the reviews at Amazon, you'll better understand where the author is coming from, and how his perspective can assist you in beginning to reconcile science with Scripture.
I can't agree with allegorizing a large portion of Genesis, but the rest of the book is very helpful!

 
"Why I Left Young-Earth Creationism" - Glenn Morton - "Nothing that young-earth creationists had taught me about geology turned out to be true."  At the point of crisis, he read a book that helped begin to make sense of the issue.  Morton says of this particular author, "His view had the power to unite the data with the Scripture... Without that I would now be an atheist."

Don't be discouraged! There is hope. The Bible's message is trustworthy.  God is still God, and Jesus is still the Savior who rose again. The Bible isn't a science book, and Genesis wasn't written for 21st century intellectuals.  God may have allowed a figurative story of His Creation to be recorded, since a scientific explanation wouldn't have made sense to readers of that time anyway.  So continue to trust Him, despite the apparent difficulties in reconciling science with His Word.

Don't allow your heart to be hardened to the truth of God's Word.  Many have fallen away because of the discrepancies between science and common interpretations of Genesis.  Ask God for faith to continue believing, in spite of the difficulties.  He is a faithful Father, who will sustain you through your doubts and fears.
  
     
Ever wonder if we've raised the bar so high regarding the supposed 'perfection' of Scripture that we've removed the humanity from a book that was inspired by God, yet written by fallen men.  God's message is  authoritative, our only source of truth for the Christian life.  But it needn't be an utterly  perfect or inerrant book for the message to be true...
