Overview
Does science discredit the Bible, God, religious faith? Absolutely not, says Dr. Michael Guillen, former Harvard physics instructor and Emmy-winning ABC News science editor. In Amazing Truths, he uses his entertaining, down-to-earth storytelling skills to reveal ten astonishing truths affirmed by both ancient scripture and modern science that answer some of our biggest questions: Can faith really move mountains? Does absolute truth exist? Are humans truly unique? Is it possible to communicate with God? How much about the universe do we actually know? How could Jesus have been fully man and fully God? In Amazing Truths, Dr. Guillen explains that faith is not some outdated way of thinking. Faith is a necessary part of science, Christianity, and any intelligent, comprehensive, coherent worldview-vastly more powerful than even logic. Amazing Truths will expand your mind and bolster your faith. You will see for yourself what Dr. Guillen, a theoretical physicist and devout Christian, has discovered in a lifetime of serious exploration-that science and faith are not at odds. In fact, they're the ultimate power couple.

Reviews
The title of this book says it all: Michael Guillen illustrates how science and the Bible are partners in revealing amazing truths about life-and life eternal. -- Spencer Christian, weather forecaster and host for KGO-TV For many people today, even self-described Christians, science has replaced the Bible as the ultimate authority in their lives. In Amazing Truths, Michael Guillen explains brilliantly why that secular view is unfounded and offers one that is better informed intellectually and spiritually. -- Rev. Greg Hughes, senior pastor, Malibu Presbyterian Church Religion and science aren't as different as we believe, Guillen argues. Can faith and science ever reach total agreement? Probably not, he writes, because science has effectively taken God out of the equation. Nevertheless, Guillen articulates how bringing faith into scientific study can reinvigorate inquiries into life's deepest mysteries. -- Publishers Weekly The lie that faith and science are enemies is never more in danger than when the affable, wonderfully understandable, and winsomely brilliant Dr. Michael Guillen is on the case. If we'd had him as our physics teacher, most of us would be physicists today! -- Eric Metaxas, New York Times bestselling author Michael Guillen has always had a unique ability to make fascinating science topics understandable and relevant to people's lives. Amazing Truths is proof of that. -- Joan Lunden, journalist, author, and television host
