Can Science Explain Everything?

Can Science Explain Everything?
By John C. Lennox

Can science explain everything?  Many people think so.  Science, and the technologies it has spawned, has delivered so much to the world: clean water; more food; better healthcare; longer life.  And we live in a time of rapid scientific progress that holds enormous promise for many of the problems we face as humankind.  So much so, in fact, that many see no need or use for religion and belief systems that offer us answers to the mysteries of our universe.  Science has explained it, they assume.  Science and religion just do not mix.  (more…)

The Possibility of Prayer

The Possibility of Prayer
By John Starke

The world clamors for efficiency and productivity.  But the life of prayer is neither efficient nor productive.  Instead, as we learn in the psalms, prayer calls us to wait, to watch, to listen, to taste, and to see.  These things are not productive by any modern measure ― but they are transformative.   As a pastor in Manhattan, John Starke knows the bustle and busyness of our society.  But he also knows that prayer is not just for spiritual giants.  Prayer, he writes, (more…)
