Origins: A Reformed Look at Read the press release I would be happy to talk to you about my personal Christian beliefs and how I reconcile apparent differences between Christianity and science. Please feel free to contact me via email or other means (see my home page). Some of my presentations listed below have links to PowerPoint slides, text, or handouts, which give you an idea of my views on science and the Christian faith.
