Why Believe in God if Science Exists?
The question is usually not whether God exists. It is whether He still has a job if science can explain everything. The two were never rivals. On the biblical account, science is the assigned work.
Welcome to Explorations — standalone essays, each walking into a single question the biblical text raises and following it wherever the evidence leads. Unlike Eternity Training, these do not build on one another; each stands on its own, makes the strongest case the text will carry, and holds it with conviction but open to correction.
