Advance Praise

"The questions Ian Hutchinson has been asked, and which he answers in this book, are the questions I have been asked and attempted to answer. Hutchinson is a scientist, a Christian, and has a pastoral heart for those who have deep and enduring questions about the Bible and science and these questioners don’t want pat and simplistic answers. Can a Scientist Believe in Miracles? belongs on the shelf of every pastor, every youth pastor, and anyone who teaches the interface of science and faith. It’s that valuable."
-Scot McKnight, Julius R. Mantey Professor of New Testament, Northern Seminary

"In this concise volume readers will encounter a remarkable array of topics relating to science, faith, theology, and philosophy that any thinking person should welcome. Hutchinson fields the questions capably and offers thoughtful answers that will provide stimulating insights on these fundamental issues. The book will arm Christians to confront their own deepest questions and those pressed on them by an unbelieving world. It will also provide non-Christians with a sound entryway into the rationale of Christian belief."
-John H. Walton, professor of old testament, Wheaton College, author of The Lost World of Genesis One

"In his new book, Dr. Hutchinson draws on his fascinating personal story, impressive credentials, and vast experiences addressing university audiences. The questions he tackles about God and science are both relatable and contemporary. All these factors combine to make his new book an engaging and compelling read."
-Leslie Wickman, executive director, American Scientific Affiliation
