Can I, a Scientific Student, Believe? (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A science student's intellectual battle to unite himself to his religious parents.

When his Jewish family invites Nicodemus to move with them to Jerusalem, he asks a religious scientist how faith and science can combine; but when fast answers are in short supply, he must both learn that faith requires serious study and that there is more to faith than knowledge alone, or his family's convictions will remain beyond his reach forever.
