Coauthors David Bundrick (theology), Donald Johns (biblical studies), and Michael Tenneson (biology) examine options for the science–theology dialogue and interdisciplinarity, framing the question with the classical notion of God’s two books—his world and his Word. They contend that multiple hermeneutical approaches from each field, science and theology, are in fact employed by particular scientists and theologians, while others are rejected. This situation results in a plurality of contemporary models for science–theology integration, among Pentecostals just as others, as a number of prominent models are identified. The authors refer to the Science–Faith Paradigm Scale, which they have empirically tested on several constituencies, including Pentecostal educational communities. |
