Part metaphysical detective story, part manual for living, The Map of Heaven explores our spiritual history and the birth of modern science, showing how we forgot, and are now at last remembering,...

Dr. Collins makes the case for God and for science. Dr. Collins considers and dismisses several positions along the spectrum from atheism to young-earth creationism, including agnosticism and intelligent design. Instead he proposes a new synthesis, a new way to think about an active, caring God who created humankind through evolutionary processes. He explains his own journey from atheism to faith, and then takes listeners on a tour of modern science...

Throughout history, arguments for and against the existence of God have been largely confined to philosophy and theology, while science has sat on the sidelines. Despite the fact that science has revolutionized every aspect of human life and greatly clarified our understanding of the world, somehow the notion has arisen that it has nothing to say about the possibility of a supreme being, which much of humanity worships as the source of all reality....

On the one hand, we have traditional science, based on the premises of materialism, reductionism, and randomness, with a belief that reality consists solely of matter and energy, that everything can be measured in the laboratory or observed by a telescope. If it can't, it doesn't exist. On the other hand, we have traditional religious dogma concerning God that fails to take into account evolution, a 4. 6 billion-year-old Earth, and the conflicting...

No class of works is received with more suspicion, I had almost said derision, than those which deal with Science and Religion. Science is tired of reconciliations between two things which never should have been contrasted; Religion is offended by the patronage of an ally which it professes not to need; and the critics have rightly discovered that, in most cases where Science is either pitted against Religion or fused with it, there is some fatal...

Provides the requisite knowledge and practical guidelines for some of the most common counseling situations.
Today's rabbis, in addition to being spiritual leaders of their congregations, are also expected to be competent counselors to members of their community. Yet rabbis often feel inadequately prepared for the difficult challenges of their counseling role.
To many, rabbinic counseling appears deceptively simple, requiring no more than good...

Why would any educated scientist with a PhD advocate a literal interpretation of the six days of creation? Why, indeed, when only one in three Americans believes 'the Bible is the actual word of God and is to be taken literally, word for word' according to a recent Gallup poll. Science can neither prove nor disprove evolution any more than it can creation. Certainly, there are no human eyewitness accounts of either. However, certain factors are present...

In his fascinating new book, In the Beginning Was Information, Dr. Werner Gitt helps the reader see how the very presence of information reveals a Designer: Should the presence of information that organizes every part of the human body, from hair color to the way internal organs work, be taken for granted?...

It takes manifestation to overcome the mundane, and the supernatural to triumph over the spectacular. In a world, where the ordinary is celebrated and over-achievers are asked to "fit-in" instead of fulfill their dreams, this book pushes those boundaries even further. In this book, the author advocates for an all-out routing of the forces of darkness by the instrumentality of God's light. God's light has, however, been misunderstood for thousands...

Unraveling the Mysteries of the Universe
What do you see when you gaze at the night sky? Do you contemplate the stars as the random result of an evolutionary process? Or do you marvel over them as a testament of the Creator's glory?
Modern science has popularized a view of the cosmos that suggests there is no need for God and denies any evidence of His existence. But The Story of the Cosmos provides a different-and fascinating-perspective. It points...
