The Winsome Creationist
A Christ-Centered Approach to Creation
About This Book
Young Earth Creationism™ is dying, despite many efforts to keep it alive. The church is becoming less young earth creationist, not more. It isn’t working.
The Winsome Creationist separates the church’s historic view of origins — young age creationism — from the corporate, consumerist Young Earth Creationism™ most associate with it. The result is a fresh framework that preserves biblical truth while building bridges instead of burning them.
What This Book Covers
- A brief history of young age creationism — busting the myth that it started with the Seventh Day Adventists
- An honest look at what has gone wrong in the modern creationist movement
- The passing of the baton — who is making a positive difference today
- A biblical theology of disagreement and how to engage with both “old” and “no” age creationists
- Moving from the battlefield to the lecture hall — fostering unity despite specific disagreements
- How to maintain biblical commitments in the face of an ever-growing scientific landscape
- A vision for the exciting future of young age creationism
To be winsome is to be artful. Respectable. Gracious. Yet, incisive. Truthful. Direct.
Written with the dual passion of a committed young age creationist and a marketer who understands the art and science of persuasion, this book lays bare what needs to change — and charts a hopeful course forward for those who believe in the historic view of origins.
