When God and Science Meet: Surprising Discoveries of Agreement

The National Association of Evangelicals asked a small cadre of authors to bring faith and science to the same page. The goal is not to answer all the questions but to unite the conversation in a way that values and respects both faith and science.

The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), through its Dialogue on Science, Ethics, and Religion (DoSER) program, has partnered with the National Association of Evangelicals (NAE) and Rice University on a three-year project that investigates the perceptions members of these communities have about one another. The goal of this partnership has been to increase understanding and foster more productive dialogue about issues that are vital to the health of the nation. This booklet, produced by the NAE for churches, is a small but important part of that effort.
