Reading the Bible Between the Ancient World and Modern Science
by Kyle Greenwood
Christians often claim to hold a biblical worldview. But what about a biblical cosmos view?

What does the dome of heaven have to do with deep space? Even when the biblical language is clearly poetic, it seems to be funded ...
