But as I have grown, and now that I am moving away from Protestantism, I am becoming more and more interested in theistic evolution.
Can someone please recommend some good sites and/or books which would explain it to me and how it fits in with Christianity?
Thank you.

There are many resources out there, but here are a few to get you started: The BioLogos Foundation Creation and Evolution Menu
There are many good books out there, too. Check out Evolutionary Creation, Beyond the Firmament, Perspectives on an Evolving Creation, and Paradigms on Pilgrimage to get you started.

There has really been no failure of evolution as a scientific theory. It works, and it works well." -- creation scientist Dr. Todd Wood |
