Before attempting to post original content about science and creation theology, I’d like to feature other people’s materials that I have found to be accessible, insightful, and helpful as introductions to the issues and topics at hand. The first of these is a set of essays by Robert J. Schneider of Berea College in Berea, Kentucky. I’ve repeated the full table of contents for Dr. Schneider’s essays with links that open the individual essays in a new browser window. (In other words, you can open and close each essay from this blog post; if you want to stay at the target website, click the “Essays” tab in the menu bar to go back to the table of contents after each essay.) I actually printed all the essays once so I’d have the whole “book” to read and mark up. I guess I’m still a bit old school.

I hope these essays remain available for years to come. Take the time to leave a comment (see the comment link in the website menu bar) and don’t miss the Resources page, either. Some of the links may not remain current, but the page gives some helpful “bios” about some of the key thinkers in this area.
