Mere Science and Christian Faith Online Course

July 7, 2021 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm PDT

$55

We live in a science and technology obsessed culture. It’s tempting to think both will make our faith obsolete. At the same time, how are we supposed to engage young adults who, more and more frequently, see the church as “anti-science?” In this four-week course, you’ll learn how to integrate the insights of science with your ministry for the purpose of spiritual. Put another way, to the question, “Is it possible for science to enhance faith and promote spiritual growth?” the responds: “Not only is this possible, but understanding how is necessary.”

 What You’ll Learn in this course:

  • How science and faith relate today, but also how they’ve interacted historically
  • The connections between contemporary science and biblical practices like forgiveness
  • Key areas of struggle and discovery—like evolution, Big Bang cosmology, and more
  • Critical issues of technology and faith, including social media, AI, and transhumanism
