Quantum Prayer: What Today’s Science May Teach Us About the God Who Answers Prayer

Is it reasonable, given what we know from current science, to believe in a God who answers prayer? The author notes that most people pray, including most professional scientists. Yet, this varies from the common view of science as opposing belief or proving that the laws of nature prohibit God from acting. The author’s readable but in-depth review of the major themes of current science leaves more than sufficient room for God to be active in the world and individual lives without resorting to violating the laws of nature. Do science and theistic belief conflict? The growing consensus in professional and academic circles is toward confluence rather than conflict. That discussion is beginning to move into discussion in churches, schools and coffee shops. This book is part of that emerging discussion covering a wide range of the most intriguing topics and issues in contemporary science.
