Publisher's Synopsis
Are you bothered by the conflicting messages you get from what the Bible teaches about God's creation of everything and what the world says happened? When you look around and see so much evil, conflict, and trouble in the world, do you wonder how this place we call home got so bad? Do you long to know what God's original creation might have been like? Are you hopeful that there is something better in the future? To get answers to those questions, you must start in Genesis, the first book in the Bible. That means we must first give the biblical text a chance to give answers to our questions about origins. Then, recognize quality scientific and historical information that supports the biblical text. Through Connecting Faith to Life on Planet Earth, study Genesis 1-11 in detail then God's work of restoration in the rest of the Bible. Knowing how the Bible ties everything together will help you connect your faith to life as you see it around you. And God's promise of restoration will give you hope for today and for the future.
