What's Science? Discover, learn, understand. Use knowledge for good.

What is science—and what can science really tell us?

Is science against faith? Can scientists make mistakes? Can science prove everything? And what should we do when something we hear seems to disagree with the Bible?

In What’s Science?, young readers ages 8–12 become Young Defenders as they explore science with curiosity, wisdom, and faith.

Children discover that science is an amazing tool for studying God’s creation—but it has limits. Science can help us investigate the physical world, from tiny cells to enormous galaxies, but not every important question can be answered with a microscope, experiment, or equation.

Through colorful illustrations, fascinating examples, simple experiments, Bible verses, and thought-provoking Young Defender Challenges, readers explore questions such as:

What exactly is science?

How does the scientific method work?

Can scientists make mistakes?

Why do scientific ideas sometimes change?

What are some things scientists once believed that turned out to be wrong?

What can—and can’t—science measure?

Can science prove or disprove God?

What should we do when science and our understanding of the Bible seem to disagree?

Did the Bible speak about truths people discovered much later?

How can studying creation actually strengthen our faith?

How can I be both a good scientist and a faithful Christian?

Rather than teaching children to fear science, What’s Science? encourages them to investigate, ask questions, examine evidence, stay humble, and seek truth—while remembering that the creation we study ultimately points beyond itself to its Creator.

Science helps us discover how God’s creation works.

Faith helps us know the God who created it.
