Evolutionary History in Theological Perspective: Exploring the Scientific Story of the Cosmos argues, with a new theological interpretive lens, that Christian theological interpretations make more compelling sense of evolutionary history than naturalistic or spiritual ones.

Evolutionary History in Theological Perspective: Exploring the Scientific Story of the Cosmos develops a new theological interpretation of evolutionary history. Exploring both secular and theological interpretations of evolutionary history, this new interpretation hinges on the similarities between individual redemption and the eschatological story of cosmic redemption as mediated by the Holy Spirit throughout evolutionary history. This new lens is then applied to relevant questions raised by the evolutionary process (especially suffering), and helps overcome the current shortcomings of contemporary interpretations of evolutionary history.

Mario Anthony Russo is founder of the Dortmund Center for Science and Faith in Dortmund Germany.
