Faith & Science Belong Together
Together, faith and science can draw us deeper into the love of God and all God has created.
BioLogos empowers people to delight in the harmony of faith and science by exploring big questions, applying science to live out their faith, and rediscovering wonder in God’s world.
Meeting A Critical Moment
Many Christians feel they must keep faith and science separate.
They worry that what they have learned about the world through science may not fit what they know about God, so they keep the two apart.
But a compartmentalized faith is not a flourishing one. People long for a life that is coherent and meaningful, not divided into separate parts. When faith feels disconnected from the rest of what they know and experience, it gradually moves to the margins of life.
These tensions are particularly acute for young people, who are in a time of life when they’re deciding what will anchor their lives. In those moments, guidance they receive from the people they trust makes all the difference.
Whether the next generation draws closer to God depends in part on how well we equip parents, pastors, teachers, and peers to help young people see the harmony of faith and science.
Our Mission
BioLogos empowers people to explore, embody, and delight in the harmony of faith and science.
We do so by helping people think deeply, live faithfully, and experience the joy of seeing God’s Word and God’s World together.
We live out this mission through three strategies:
We Explore
We help people engage questions about faith and science with curiosity and openness.
Our articles and podcasts guide young people through their questions directly, while our classroom resources and guides strengthen the communities that walk with them.
We Embody
People develop a fuller faith when they experience the ways science can be used to love their neighbors and all creation.
From guides for worshipping God in nature to training Christian content creators on creation care, we help people put the harmony of faith and science into practice.
We Delight
Young people, more than other age groups, are likely to feel wonder about the universe. Our work helps turn that wonder into worship.
We invite people to delight in God through wonder-infused podcasts, awe-filled social media content, and uplifting events.
Our Vision
When people are able to explore, embody, and delight in the harmony of faith and science, something powerful happens.
We move toward a world in which faith and science together draw us deeper into love of God and all God has created.
As our vision takes shape, we’ll see:
- Individuals draw closer to God and develop a faith that feels whole
- Communities practice gracious dialogue and live out their faith together
- The church becomes more vibrant and engages today’s challenges with confidence
Our Values
We believe pursuing this vision requires us to ground our work in three core values:
Christ-centered Faith — We embrace the historical Christian faith, upholding the authority and inspiration of the Bible.
Rigorous Science — We affirm the established findings of modern science, celebrating the wonders of God’s creation.
Gracious Dialogue — We strive for humble and thoughtful dialogue with those who hold other views, speaking the truth in love.
Our History
BioLogos began with Francis Collins, one of the world’s leading scientists.
Best known for leading the Human Genome Project and directing the National Institutes of Health, Collins also wrote The Language of God, the best-selling book that told the story of his journey from atheism to Christian faith.
The book sparked an overwhelming response, with people around the world sending Collins their questions about the relationship between faith and science. As those letters piled up, he recognized the need for a community where Christians could explore these questions together.
In 2009, Collins founded BioLogos to meet that need. What began as a website answering common faith-science questions quickly grew into a wide range of resources helping Christians engage science with curiosity, joy, and faith.
Today, millions of people leverage our online content and resources to bring faith and science together each year.
