Good Heavens! The Human Side of Astronomy

The First Star - Are Modern Scientific Theories and Scripture Compatible?

Was there a first star? If so, how did it form? Believe it or not, the secular material sciences have no real evidence to support theoretical models of how the first stars came to be or how the stars we see today came into existence. 

How then should we as Christians best understand naturalist models of the cosmos that take no account for God's glory? 

On this special episode of Good Heavens! Dan offers some reflections about the nature of scientific models and Christian theology.
