Introduction

The aim of this personal blog is to illustrate the intellectual engagement of Christian theology with science and with culture. The name Soli Deo Gloria is inspired by J.S. Bach's writing SDG on all his compositions. Handel also did this on some compositions (see above).

  • YouTube lectures on Science, Christianity, and Apologetics

About Me

My photo
Ross H. McKenzie
ST LUCIA, QLD, Australia
I have fun at work trying to use quantum many-body theory to understand electronic properties of complex materials. I am married to the lovely Robin and have two adult children and a dog, Priya (in the photo). I also write an even more personal blog Soli Deo Gloria [thoughts on theology, science, and culture]
