About ISCAST – Christianity and Science in Conversation
ISCAST – Christianity and Science in Conversation (formally, the Institute for the Study of Christianity in an Age of Science and Technology) is a not-for-profit organisation committed to promoting informed and constructive conversations between science, technology, and the Christian faith.
We are a diverse community consisting of scholars—including scientists and theologians—technologists, engineers, students, lay people, pastors, communicators, educators, and others. We value science because it reveals truth about God’s creation, assists believers to fulfil God’s purposes, and contributes to the common good. And we are passionate about equipping the church and the broader community to engage faithfully with the challenges and opportunities of scientific and technological change. Our work includes public events and conferences (face-to-face, virtual, and hybrid), educational programs, media and publishing (including the peer-reviewed ISCAST journal), and a ministry to young people, especially through growing schools engagement, which addresses the perceived conflict between science and faith.
