Where's the Pier?

The Pier Press pier is a metaphor. (Photo by Tradd Harter on Unsplash.)

Our pier exists as a symbol. According to the dictionary, a pier is a structure that serves multiple functions:

1.     a path from shore to navigable waters

2.     a journey's point of embarkation, arrival, or return

3.     a place to walk along the intersection of the sea and land

4.     a breakwater to protect or create a sheltered place for anchorage

5.     a support at the end of an archway

6.     a solid mount for a telescope

All these functions come together at Pier Press®. Our materials are designed to help readers discover a path to the navigable waters of their lives; experience intellectual and spiritual journeys; walk between seemingly dissimilar viewpoints and examine the ways they complement one another; find shelter and rest; support others who need to be upheld during times of stress; and see the stars, the skies, and the heavens.

In Harvey Mudd College News, David Vosburg, one of the coauthors of Jesus, Beginnings, and Science, said, “Science and faith can be compatible and even mutually enriching if we can approach both with a posture of humility and wonder instead of hostility and fear.” Read the article at https://www.hmc.edu/about-hmc/2017/09/20/vosburg-book-seeks-bridge-science-religion/

A Discussion Guide for Communities Large and Small

The Emerging Scholars Blog, by Andy Walsh, reviewed Jesus, Beginnings, and Science by David and Kate Vosburg. Walsh noted, “The approach here is to provide a discussion guide for communities large and small looking to have a conversation about where science, especially contemporary science, fits into a Christian faith serious about Jesus and the Bible. I think this book would be a valuable resource for such communities and conversations.” Read more at https://blog.emergingscholars.org/2017/10/science-book-review-jesus-beginnings-and-science/
