Creating Harmony Between Biblical Faith And Science

An audio interview with Deborah Haarsma

In this Omega Center interview Brie Stoner invites BioLogos President Deborah Haarsma to share  her work, perspectives, and passion on a range of topics, including how we can engage in fruitful and open dialogue with Christians who differ in their approach and beliefs of an evolutionary universe.  As their conversation unfolds Dr. Haarsma highlights some of the concerns that conservative Christians report in accepting a scientific worldview, and how we might bridge the views held within a traditional faith perspective and an evidence-based approach.
