From the moment of creation to the emergence of a planet tailor-made for life, from the journey of multi-million species to the development of an upright creature hungry for God, science tells a sacred story: a superintelligent Creator used His mathematical genius to convert lifeless equations into galaxies, planets, and people. His love has been visible throughout the process.
Could our journey reflect thousands of random accidents with no divine guidance? Creation delivered impulses that filled the universe with galaxies and stars. Eliminate any one of those blueprints and the universe would have been stillborn.
Stars produced a perfect mix of elements to bring the universe to life. Without a robust ensemble of gene and protein sequences, life might still be living at the bottom of the sea.
Hundreds of human genes convert the neurons of a human infant into trillions of networks in an adult brain. Without those God-given genes, a dangerous world may have left us trapped in the treetops with no interest in science at all. But God shared His mind and triggered the emergence of human consciousness.
Where do we find ourselves after centuries of that scientific searching? We see that science reflets its source. Science is a gift of God’s creative love, and is nothing less than sacred!

About the Author
He is founder emeritus of the West Cancer Center & Research Institute in Paris, Tennessee, one of the largest cancer centers in the Southeast, with over seven hundred employees and forty providers offering cancer care in eleven locations.
During his medical career, Dr. West served as principal investigator of the pivotal study that resulted in approval of the first immunotherapy drug for the treatment of cancer. He has also made significant contributions to the use of peripheral blood stem cells to reduce the risk and expense of intensive chemotherapy.
A lifelong member of one of the largest Methodist churches in the US, he has delivered periodic lectures on the relationship of science and faith for more than forty years.
As a medical oncologist and person of faith, he has maintained passionate interest in the Near-Death Experience, the creation of the universe, the role of DNA in health and disease, and the nature of consciousness including recent studies employing psilocybin. He has constantly followed the dialogue between science and faith, immensely skeptical that there could be conflict between these two great ways of knowing.
