Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

We celebrate distinctive attributes of Creation - its orderly structure, measurableprocesses - using an elementary analysis of the precision of Earth's systems. Scripturalprinciple and scientific knowledge are compared at an uncomplicated level to guidethe learner to greater knowledge of the Creator.The character of God is seen in the Air (the heavens and atmosphere), the Earth(the geosphere), Fire (energy), and Water (the hydrosphere). A fifth element, Ether, proclaims the grace of nature, evidence of God's providence and Earth's resilience. Thefive elements, borrowed from Greek philosophy, track the divinely ordered Creationaccount. These spheres work in tandem to collectively sustain life on Earth, convergingat the soil, from which God made living beings (the biosphere), notably humans.We survey these domains, review man's connection and their interdependence, andguide the reader to see that the visible Creation was placed before us to help usperceive the invisible Kingdom of God; we call this the Romans 1:20 Principle. Histruth, seen in its order, and His grace, seen in its providence and resilience, makeCreation a suitable home for us.
