Description
In the Schreiner household, conversations about creation, evolution, and ecology happen more often than normal. Schreiner teaches biblical studies, and his brother-in-law is a biologist. And both teach at institutions of Christian higher education. However, when Schreiner’s family was able to take a trip to Galápagos Islands in 2023 and 2024, his interpretive conclusions on the Bible’s creation texts, shifting positions on ecology, and general moral responsibility as a Christian collided in a palpable way.
Inspired by a range of experiences, from mingling with sea lions to taking water ferries across the Pacific to snorkeling with sharks, Schreiner jovially shares experiences and musings that testify to his shifting positions on these matters, his frustrations with the usual conversations, and whether he thinks there can be true irenic conversation between Christians and scientists. Informed, blunt, sometimes snarky, but always honest, Schreiner’s musings will likely resonate with anyone who travels with their family or wants to be honest about the many variables that must inform a Christian’s position on issues of creation, evolution, and ecology.
