Does Science Impair Your Faith?

Unite Room

South Wing

Main Level

Most of the scientific world assumes that Evolution is a fact that eliminates the need for a God, or for supernatural creation. How does this affect my faith in the supernatural or in the God of Creation? Can a case be made that Science actually supports the Creation account? This study will focus on scientific evidence that has been recently revealed, not on the Logic of Morality, or evidence that the Bible is trustworthy. Meets Sabbaths in the Unite Room at 10:30 a.m. for 6 to 9 weeks. Begins January 29. Contact Mike Mohr at mrmohr2@gmail.com or (423) 605-8863 with questions.
