I recently wrote a sermon for Epiphany titled: Faith and Science Audio
In it I asked, what do you see in this: GODISNOWHERE?
Some might see "God is now here." Others might see "God is nowhere."
Not much more than 150 years ago the greatest scientists saw complete harmony between science and theology. Isaac Newton firmly believed in an elegant, mathematical universe.. He wrote more about the Bible than he did about science (See, The Clockwork Universe, Edward Dolnick)! But then some scientists began looking at the natural world apart from God. They consider the universe to be an elegant accident! But their theories are running into trouble, especially with the math. To make an accidental universe work, they are realizing they need infinite multi-verses and parallel universes. That is more fantastical than an elegantly created universe. And there is no natural evidence of such things (See, Our Mathematical Universe, Max Tegmark).
The wisemen followed nature (the star) and God's word to Bethlehem to see Jesus. Faith and science are in complete harmony.
