ISCAST Perth: Has Science Accidentally Found Evidence There Is a God?

Drawing on developments in both mainstream science and biblical scholarship, Martin Hill presents a credible pathway for being both a Bible-believing Christian and an intellectually honest participant in modern science.

Recent discoveries surrounding the Big Bang, the formation of the Earth and the biosystems on this planet provide some remarkable and compelling evidence for the existence of the God of the Bible. The Big Bang theory’s determination that space and time began in a singularity billions of years ago proved catalytic, prompting many within the scientific community to re-engage with questions of divine origins. This has fuelled diverse efforts to explore how the Genesis 1 text might align with the relevant science.
