God and the Big Bang
Edited by Kate Christopher
KS3 / KS5
Suitable for secondary
Science and religion are different approaches to answering questions about the world, so why are they presented as in conflict?
Developments and discoveries in science are often cited as the reason for decline in religious belief. Is religion directly challenged by science, or are science and faith simply operating in different spheres? Scientific knowledge is often presented as the only reliable form of information, yet for people of faith religion provides answers to questions they feel science cannot.
This curriculum book for ages 11-18 explores current questions at the heart of contemporary science and Christian faith through the work of scientists, philosophers and thinkers who are also Christians. Students will consider what is meaningful in both science and Christianity, and what both reveal about the human condition.

Unit 1 – Genesis: the beginning
