Creation or Evolution: Does It Matter? is a book of hope that deals with the enduring debate between two explanations for our existence. This debate won't be won in the courtroom or the classroom or even in the Sunday school class. It will only be won in the hearts of people. On a personal level, the book develops the importance of the question posed in the title (i.e., Does It Matter?) by considering the implications of accepting creation or evolution. Both evolution and creation models are examined. The book makes a strong case for creation. It shows that the Biblical account of the origin and diversity of life makes sense, is consistent with sound science, and gives us hope and purpose. Readers are encouraged to examine the evidence with an open mind.The book is a resource for understanding and presenting the origin and diversity of life from a Biblical and scientific perspective. There are many creation/evolution books on the market. This book takes a personal approach in presenting the compelling need for finding truth about origin of life. It also makes the complicated arguments easy to understand for an average, nonscientific audience.
