It shows how deep biblical truths shape a distinctive way of thinking and living in the world, and it provides patterns and examples of how to bring the Bible to bear on some of the key assumptions, debates, and issues of our age, equipping the reader to apply these patterns to new questions and in new contexts. At its heart lies a central conviction: to explain the Bible to the culture in which we live is not enough; we must also explain the culture in which we live in terms of the Bible. With this aim, Thinking through Creation explores how to view our culture through the lens of the biblical account of the Trinitarian God and his creative act as recounted in Genesis chapters 1 and 2, using biblical ways of thinking to meet the challenge of engaging in authentic, positive, and constructive dialogue with the great ideas and values of our time.
