Can you explain Theistic Evolution to a former creationist?

When I first became a Christian I became quite attached to creationism. 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.

Welcome, Nicea.
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.
