God’s Creation Series (Book 1: Space & Time)

The ‘God’s Creation Series’ is written for those interested in Biblical ideas of God as creator, and what science tells us about those processes of creation.

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth didn’t have any shape. And it was empty. -Genesis 1:1-2 (NIrV)

In this book: ‘Space & Time’, kids get a taste of these two concepts and how they are related. From spinning planets, glowing comets, burning stars, and pinwheeling galaxies, to a discussion about bowling balls on a trampoline (that explains how space and time warp)-and much, much more-scientifically accurate concepts are discussed in kid-friendly language. With the addition of drawings, photos, and fun facts, young scientists enjoy exploring the authors’ idea that science is uncovering the awesome and intricate plan God had in mind when he created the heavens and earth.

This book is part 1 of a series presenting well-illustrated and informative explorations of the natural world within a context which presents God as creator and science as a way of finding out about His creation. The authors present a positive approach to viewing God as creating through the use of natural processes which we can use science to understand, and generally follow their stated claim that “these books are about the wonders of God’s creation, not so much about when each event took place”. The books are well-presented and colourful with an engaging mix of photos, cartoons, side-notes and relevant .

Other books in the series include “Sky & Sea”, “Rocks & Plants” and “Fish, Bugs & Birds”.
