“Scientists of Faith: 28 Stories of Brilliant Scientists with Remarkable Faith in God” (CLICK HERE for it)
This colorful book by Christy Monson, illustrated by Wiliam Luong, and published by Bushel & Peck Books (2023) features 28 scientists who all share a faith in God. The scientists are from a variety of monotheistic faith traditions. The while the book does include scientists from history, like Isaac Newton and Gregor Mendel, it focuses on more recent scientists. The publisher’s web page says that the book is “ideal for kids 7-11 years old”, but older children and even adults will find it of interest.

The Faith and Science pages (F&S) are a unique resource on the web. The material in F&S is stuff that you will find nowhere else (or at least not without a lot of digging). Featured areas on F&S include “History of Church and Science”; “Church and Science Today”; “Science and Scripture”; “Science, Religion & Society”; “Life in the Universe”; “Cosmology”; and more. The level of the F&S material ranges from being accessible to all audiences, with even some material oriented toward young readers, up to material for university specialists.
The F&S pages, like this blog, are made possible by the Vatican Observatory Foundation (the Vatican Observatory’s US operation that operates the Vatican Advanced Technology Telescope, or VATT, in Arizona). CLICK HERE to support the F&S pages, this blog, and the operation of the VATT.
