...you see what I did there? I swear that it's only by coincidence that my first blog post involves the book of Genesis. You see, my wife and I host a Bible study in our home, and we are currently going verse-by-verse through Genesis. Part of what I love about Genesis is the scientific fact and theory that can be found in it. I'm not talking about reconciling the Christian view of creation with evolution or the Big Bang Theory--the Bible has no support for that--but science and the Bible are not the opposite forces that a lot of people make them out to be.
