The challenge often put forward is that God is a delusion and science has removed the need for faith in anything.
Test of Faith, is a set of resources from The Faraday Institute for Science and Religion that are designed to help churches and other groups navigate the questions raised when science and faith meet.
The award-winning three-part documentary Test of FAITH: Does science threaten belief in God? asks the question, ‘How do believing scientists respond to this challenge?’ To accompany the DVD is a book, Test of FAITH: Spiritual Journeys with Scientists, containing stories from ten scientists, all of whom can speak to the way in which science has enriched their discovery of God and subsequent faith journey. There are also study resources for churches, adult small groups, secondary schools, and Christian youth groups. Contributors include Prof. Alister McGrath; Revd Dr John Polkinghorne KBE FRS; Dr Francis Collins, former Director of the Human Genome Project; plus many other leading scientists and theologians.
Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury commends the initiative: “I am very pleased that The Faraday Institute has been able to help churches and individual Christians in this task by developing this fascinating resource.”
