Astronomy questions and definitions in a Biblical perspectiv
As a scientist who is also a Christian, I have found it unfortunately difficult to find literature that appropriately deals with scientific facts from a biblical viewpoint. This book is a prime example of what I wish I could find in other scientific fields (including my own). The book deals with a number of current and relevant scientific issues (astronomy, meterological) and gave a balanced biblical perspective. The author of the book was willing to delve into some difficult issues and give a response that was reasonable and concise.

Donald DeYoung does not hold back from challenging some Christian thought that delves more on superstition and rumor than on facts. I was both intellectually challenged and encouraged to search scripture for truth revolving around the gospel. In my perspective, this book is a rare find in its readability and scientific basis. It would be a terrific study tool for teenagers college students in Christian schools and for those who are mere laymen in the field of Astronomy.
