Can the creation account in Genesis truly align with modern scientific discoveries? For many, questions about the age of the earth, the timing of humanity’s origin, and the nature of Noah’s flood create tension between faith and science. This seminar will show how a literal reading of Genesis 1 can harmonize with geological and scientific data, revealing that Scripture and science are not at odds, but rather, complementary.
Join us for “Genesis from a Scientific Perspective”, a two-week seminar designed to strengthen your confidence in the reliability of the Bible and equip you with biblical and scientific insights to engage others thoughtfully and faithfully. You’ll gain tools to answer skeptical questions, deepen your understanding of the creation account as a foundation for faith, and speak your faith boldly with confidence and clarity.
