Mission and Program Overview

Mission

The mission of the ASA is interpreting, integrating, and communicating the discoveries of science with the insights of scripture and Christian theology.

ASA's unique mission is to integrate, communicate, and facilitate properly researched science and theology in service to the Church and the scientific community. ASA members are confident that such a goal is not only possible but necessary for an adequate understanding of God and Nature. We believe that honest and open studies of both Scripture and Nature are mutually beneficial in developing a full understanding of human identity, relationships, and our environment.
