The Re-Creation of Planet Earth and the Real Account of Life’s Beginnings

Have you ever wondered why there is such a huge discrepancy between what scientists say about the age of our planet and what the Bible says?

What if there was an analysis of creation that combined science with scripture in the search for truth—yielding a unique and provocative conclusion about life’s beginning?

In The Re-Creation of Planet Earth and the Real Account of Life’s Beginnings, author Brian Donnelly explores just this integration of science and biblical truth to provide a more realistic account of creation and re-creation.
