The Spirituality of Science

Following the example of the “Society Rooms” of the late 1600’s and the Clapham Circle of the early 1800’s, Q Society Rooms are designed to gather small groups of leaders to dialogue, learn, and work together to explore how to express the Christian faith in a post-Christian culture. A Participant’s Book, Leader’s DVD and Guide, and a group project complete the Q Society experience, which will challenge every participant’s innermost beliefs and pre-conceived ideas about life, faith, the world, and cultural responsibility. In The Spirituality of Science: What Christians Can Learn From Scientists, host Gabe Lyons and DVD presenters Francis Collins, Catherine Crouch, and Louie Giglio explore the difficult questions of faith and science: Is the idea of God simply a delusion and religion the main obstacle to the advancement of civilization? Is science itself anti-faith? Does evolution threaten the very tenets of Christianity? Doesn’t the creation debate highlight the enmity between science and faith? Lyons and Norton Herbst then help you and the group explore---through short articles by noted authors, transcripts from Q Talks (included in the Leader’s DVD and Guide), five meetings to discuss important topics related to the overall theme, and thought-provoking questions---the relationship between science and faith, and you’ll discuss how all Christians (non-scientists included) should be mindful of these issues.
