Science shows how matter rises into life and consciousness; faith proclaims why it moves—toward unity, freedom, and love in Christ. Reconciliation means more than compromise.

Imagine having lived in the generation that discovered fire. Current scientific and technological advances will reorder our lives as much. Artificial Intelligence, decoding the human genome, links between mind and computer... All these things that were once science fiction are now quickly—and absolutely—becoming science fact. Could machines become sentient? Is "life" a computer simulation? Does science really have a genetic blueprint for all human life? Believers and unbelievers alike are easily unnerved by such questions.

Romans 9-11 may be the most perplexing portion of the Pauline Epistles. These three chapters are teeming with citations from the Hebrew Scriptures. Paul’s purpose for the quotations is often obscure, the logic of his reasoning is confusing, and attempts to understand what he is telling us can be frustrating. Dr. Anne Davis has recovered ancient Hebraic methods of searching the Scriptures, which penetrate Paul's mysteries and explain how "all Israel will be saved."

The latest and most bitterly contested battle in the culture war is the controversy over Darwin and intelligent design. But much of what you've heard about it is wrong. Jonathan Wells, a battle-hardened veteran with doctorates in biology and theology, sets the record straight.

Is there a God? It's a question billions of people have asked since the dawn of time. You would think by now we'd have a satisfactory, universal answer. No such luck...or maybe we do and we just need to look in the right place. For Dr. Jay Lombard that place is the brain, and more importantly the mind, that center of awareness and consciousness that creates reality. In The Mind of God, Dr. Lombard employs case studies from his own behavioral neurology practice to explore the spiritual conundrums that we all ask ourselves.

Alien Goddess enters this urgent conversation with a perspective no one else is offering.

Yet how many know a plan exists for widespread adoption of human microchipping beginning in the year 2017? While testimony has been given that safeguards are in place to ensure privacy in connection with implantable biometric identification, some believe confidentiality is the last thing internal radio transmitters will protect--that the plan to microchip humanity smacks of the biblical mark of the Beast.

The modern world faces religious, spiritual, and existential quandaries, as new technologies redefine the beginnings and ends of life.
