| Summary: | William Paley and Douglas John Hall : the watchmaker God and the crucified Christ -- Charles Darwin, Asa Gray, and Aubrey Moore : a natural history of the golden rule -- Philip Hefner's risky teleology : natural selection as the sacrificial means of a free creation -- Denis Edwards and Elizabeth Johnson : a liberative Sophia -- Conclusion: Discerning Christ in creation.

Watson engages Darwin's The Descent of Man, William Paley's Natural Theology, and the Wisdom Christologies of Denis Edwards and Elizabeth Johnson to argue that creation is revelatory of God when considered in light of the suffering Christ and an existential fall"-- |
