Because we live in an ever-shrinking world, it is commonplace to encounter people whose faith differs from our own or people with no faith at all. As Christians, we want the people we meet to understand why we believe Christianity is true. Fazale Rana, Anjeanette Roberts, and Jeff Zweerink help readers establish common ground with people of different faiths by using science as a bridge-builder. This collection of essays is a brief, accessible introduction to RTB's creation model that will encourage your faith and equip you to share reasons for the hope within you.

For years naturalistic theories have monopolized academia as the only possible scientific explanation for the origin of life. But there's something many people don't know--the facts just don't support such theories. In Origins of Life, biochemist Fazale Rana and astronomer Hugh Ross reveal a model that shows how perspectives on first life's beginnings can be tested--as a creation event--with astounding results. Rana and Ross challenge the myth that scientific evidence supports naturalistic theories and show how research corroborates a transcendent Creator who formed and nurtured the initial life forms and more.

Can dinosaur blood and other soft tissues survive for millions of years? Fossils have preserved evidence but what does it show? In 2004, paleontologist Mary Schweitzer peered through her microscope and saw something remarkable. She saw fresh-looking remnants of soft tissue in the fossilized remains of a T. rex femur. This was totally unexpected. And it contradicted all the rules of paleontology. Scientists had long believed that soft tissue remains would have degraded away in thousands not millions of years. But this tissue staring back at Mary Schweitzer was millions of years old. While scientists were struggling to make sense of this surprising discovery, a group of Christians became electrified by it. Those Christians who believe that the earth is merely thousands of years old saw this breakthrough as obvious evidence that scientists had miscalculated the dates for the dinosaurs. The discovery of soft tissue remains associated with fossils has become in recent years one of the most prominent scientific arguments for a young earth. In this careful analysis, biochemist Fazale Rana demonstrates the scientific plausibility of recovering soft tissue remnants from ancient sites. Rana also shows how traces of dinosaur blood claimed by some as evidence for a young earth instead strengthen the case for an old earth and, thus, for the reliability of Scripture.

We Have Questions about Evolution But Is It Safe to Ask? 
As children, we fearlessly enter the world with curiosity and a sense of exploration. As we get older, the stakes get higher. We find that new ideas can be disturbing when they don't fit our view of life or they challenge our current understanding. The potential for disturbance is why many people are afraid to ask questions or to allow others to ask. 
In Thinking about Evolution, molecular biologist Anjeanette "AJ" Roberts, biochemist Fazale Rana, paleoanthropologist Sue Dykes, and analytical philosopher Mark Perez guide us to a place where, once again, we can fearlessly embrace curiosity. We're invited to ask questions such as, "Is evolution really a problem for the Christian faith?" and "What if evolution is true?" Then, we can wrestle with the answers together, building the confidence that allows us to be more comfortable with others' questions as well as our own.

Blaze a new trail of discovery in biochemistry.\nNearly a half a century after the introduction of the idea that humanity lives in a universe at the just-right location, the just-right time, and with the just-right physical constants, the anthropic principle continues to gain acceptance among astronomers and astrophysicists. Few scientists question the fine-tuning of the numerical quantities that define the universe. 
But what about the unexplored areas of chemistry and biochemistry? Do we witness an equal amount of evidence for fine-tuning? 
In Fit for a Purpose, biochemist Fazale Rana, fearlessly pushes the boundaries of the anthropic principle beyond cosmology. In the process, Rana invites the reader to discover the world of chemical and biochemical fine-tuning, as well as to contemplate this question: 
If the universe is fit for life, and biochemical systems are fit for their role in life, is it possible that everything is "fit for a purpose"?
