The Book Of Beginnings

This work presents a unified approach to the biblical account of beginnings, demonstrating how Genesis 1–11 serves as the foundation for both the scientific study of origins and the theological understanding of redemption. By pairing scientific insights with theological interpretation, Clausen and Wheeler show that the story of creation is not just about the physical origins of the world, but also about the moral and spiritual journey of humanity. The book argues that faith and science are not adversaries but partners in seeking truth, and that the Genesis narrative provides enduring answers to humanity’s deepest questions about meaning, morality, and destiny.

Specific Detail Info

The Book of Beginnings (2006) by Ben Clausen and Gerald Wheeler examines the first eleven chapters of Genesis from two complementary perspectives—science and theology. Clausen, as a scientist, focuses on how creation, the nature of humanity, suffering, and catastrophic events such as the Flood can be understood in the light of modern scientific thought. Wheeler, as a Bible scholar, treats these same passages as ancestral history, exploring their theological depth, redemptive themes, and significance for understanding God’s plan of salvation. The book seeks to bridge the gap between empirical inquiry and scriptural faith, offering a well-rounded exploration of life’s origins.
