What is the link between creation and redemption? What responsibility do we as humans have in creation, and what practical actions we should take now to glorify Christ and advance his kingdom?
The L. Russ Bush Center for Faith and Culture is proud to announce The Goodness of Creation and Human Responsibility (Feb. 18-20, 2021)— a Faith + Culture Forum designed to address these important questions.
In this post, get to know one of our speakers, Dr. Alister McGrath.
Alister McGrath is Andreas Idreos Professor of Science and Religion at Oxford University. McGrath was an atheist as a teenager, and discovered Christianity while studying chemistry as an undergraduate at Oxford University. He holds three earned doctorates from Oxford in the natural sciences, Christian theology, and intellectual history.
He has a long-standing interest in exploring the relation of science and faith, and has published extensively in this field. He is best known for his critique of Richard Dawkins, and for his widely-used theology textbooks, especially Christian Theology: An Introduction, now in its sixth edition. His most recent book is The Territories of Human Reason: Science and Theology in an Age of Multiple Rationalities (Oxford University Press, 2019).
