How can one view the world biologically but also biblically?

The walls people build around their lives protect them—but also limit them.

People build many intellectual, emotional, and spiritual walls around themselves, those they love, and their community. Often, these walls safeguard them and help them understand their life and purpose. Yet sometimes, these walls impede people from fully experiencing life as God wants them to.

Which self-built walls are helping these people? Which walls are holding them back?

In his second book, Biblical Biology, Dr. Woodard invites individuals to explore big ideas around biology and faith to see whether any of these ideas hit up against their walls. If they do, that’s okay. Believers are encouraged to see whether there might be something on the other side that opens up a new way to think, feel, or connect with God.
