John Lennox

In response to the continuing controversy over the interpretation of the creation narrative in Genesis, John Lennox proposes a succinct method of reading and interpreting the first chapters of Genesis without discounting either science or Scripture.

Seven Days That Divide the World

Can science explain everything? It can often seem that, in the 21st century, we have no need for religion when science has given us so many insights into the mysteries of this universe. Science and religion just do not mix. But is that really the case? Drawing on his own experiences as a scientist and a Christian, and decades of good-natured discussion and debates about the relationship between them, Professor John Lennox suggests how we can see these two presumed foes as good friends-and enjoy and benefit from both of them.

Can Science Explain Everything?

Atheism is on the march in the western world, and its enemy is God. Religion, the "New Atheists" claim, "is dangerous", it "kills" or "poisons everything". And if religion is the problem with the world, their answer is simple: get rid of it. But are things really so straightforward? Tackling the likes of Richard Dawkins, Stephen Hawking, Christopher Hitchens, and Daniel Dennett head on, John Lennox highlights the fallacies in the their approach, arguing that their irrational and unscientific methodology leaves them guilty of the same obstinate foolishness of which they accuse dogmatic religious folks. Erudite and wide-ranging, Gunning for God packs some debilitating punches. It also puts forward new ideas about the nature of God and Christianity that will give the New Atheists' best friends and worst enemies alike some stimulating food for thought.

Why the New Atheists are Missing the Target

Gunning for God

How belief in a loving and sovereign God helps us to make sense of and cope with the coronavirus outbreak. We are living through a unique, era-defining period. Many of our old certainties have gone, whatever our view of the world and whatever our beliefs. The coronavirus pandemic and its effects are perplexing and unsettling for all of us. How do we begin to think it through and cope with it? In this short yet profound book, Oxford mathematics professor John Lennox examines the coronavirus in light of various belief systems and shows how the Christian worldview not only helps us to make sense of it, but also offers us a sure and certain hope to cling to.

Where is God in a Coronavirus World?

“Deep, rich, and nourishing.” —Os Guinness The life of Joseph detailed in the book of Genesis is a story of love, hate, slavery, power, and forgiveness. Although written thousands of years ago, it has a timeless quality that still probes the depths of the human experience. In this thoughtful and devotional book, scholar John Lennox emphasizes the major themes present in Joseph’s story—such as suffering, temptation, forgiveness, faith, and God’s sovereignty—and applies them to readers at a personal level. This detailed look at Joseph’s life in its broader context will invite us into a deeper trust of God in the face of suffering and hardship.

Who gets to determine what Christianity means? Is it possible to understand its original message after centuries of tradition and conflicting ideas? Gooding and Lennox throw fresh light on these questions by tracing the Book of Acts’ historical account of the message that proved so effective in the time of Christ’s apostles. Luke’s record of its confrontations with competing philosophical and religious systems reveals Christianity’s own original and lasting definition.

The Definition of Christianity

How can one book be so widely appreciated and so contested? Millions revere it and many ridicule it, but the Bible is often not allowed to speak for itself. Key Bible Concepts explores and clarifies the central terms of the Christian gospel. Gooding and Lennox provide succinct explanations of the basic vocabulary of Christian thought to unlock the Bible’s meaning and its significance for today.

The Bible and Ethics

Is Christianity just a belief that dulls the pain of our existence with dreams that are beautiful but false? Or is it an accurate account of reality, our own condition and God’s attitude toward us? Gooding and Lennox address crucial issues that can make it difficult for thoughtful people to accept the Christian message. They answer those questions and show that clear thinking is not in conflict with personal faith in Jesus Christ.

NO NECESITAS SER EXPERTO EN INFORMÁTICA PARA INTERESARTE POR EL RUMBO QUE LA TECNOLOGÍA Y LA INTELIGENCIA ARTIFICIAL ESTÁN TOMANDO. ¿Cómo será todo en el 2084 para ti, para tus amigos, para tu familia y para nuestra sociedad? ¿Nos dirigimos a una distopía como la que George Orwell describe en su novela 1984? En 2084, el científico y filósofo John Lennox presenta los principales avances de la tecnología, la bioingeniería y, sobre todo, la inteligencia artificial. Pero en este libro encontrarás mucho más. La IA plantea preguntas que nos afectan a todos. ¿Cuáles son las ventajas y las desventajas de la IA? ¿Cuánto hay de verdad y de ficción? ¿Qué significa la incorporación de la IA para nuestra privacidad y nuestra libertad? ¿Qué hay de la seguridad de nuestros puestos de trabajo? ¿Cómo afecta la IA a nuestra visión del mundo y, en particular, a nuestra visión de Dios? ¿Qué futuro nos espera? Ante todas estas preguntas y muchas más, 2084 muestra cómo la visión cristiana proporciona respuestas creíbles y basadas en la evidencia que traen esperanza para el futuro de la humanidad.

Hat die Wissenschaft Gott begraben?

Wissenschaft und Religion - ist das wirklich ein Kampf zwischen völlig unterschiedlichen Welten? Einige Autoren scheinen davon auszugehen, wie etwa Richard Dawkins oder auch Stephen Hawking. Sie bringen dafür zahlreiche Argumente - halten diese aber einer näheren Prüfung wirklich stand? Prof. John Lennox ("Hat die Wissenschaft Gott begraben?") setzt sich in seinem neuen Buch mit dem aktuellen Bestseller von Stephen Hawking "Der große Entwurf: Eine neue Erklärung des Universums" auseinander und liefert gute Argumentationshilfen für den Glauben.
