Description

Creation? Evolution? Intelligent Design? Are they all just theories or are there facts to support any of these explanations of our origins? “It has often been pointed out that if a person really believes Genesis 1:1, he will not find it difficult to believe anything else recorded in the Bible. That is, if God really created all things, then He controls all things and can do all things.” — Dr. Henry Morris, The Genesis Record WHAT TO EXPECTIn this series titled Genesis: The Book of Beginnings, we will explore the current issues related to the origins of man and the universe. If Genesis is true, then how do we understand what science tells us about origins, earth history, and biology? Is there a way for both to be true? Which one is authoritative? Did mankind slowly evolve over billions of years? Are the six days in Genesis literal or ages of time? These and other questions will be addressed in this free 10-week introductory seminar on Genesis: The Book of Beginnings. SERIES SCHEDULEWEEK ONE: Why Understanding Origins is Foundational for Christians WEEK TWO: What Are the Major Issues in Scripture and Science Regarding Origins?
