I read "The Case for a Creator" a few months back and loved it. I also enjoyed "The Case for Christ" and "The Case for Faith" - so much that I had my non-christian dad read them. I love what Lee does on "Faith Under Fire" too. I attend Rick Warren's church so ...

Re: Creation account - Gerald Schroeder explains
