BioLogos Advisor Denis Alexander will present “Science and Faith: An Introduction” at the Faraday Institute for Science and Religion and Keswick Ministries’ Engaging with Science on April 23-24, 2021. (Note: This event will be taking place in the United Kingdom.)

“If you’re a Church leader, a Christian working in a science-related profession, or a Christian with a strong interest in learning how to approach scientific questions through biblical lenses, then this event is especially for you!  This short course will be run in partnership with Keswick Ministries, in their beautiful Lake District location. We hope this will run as a in-person event, but that will depend on government guidelines at the time. The aim is to equip Christians to be able to engage faithfully with challenging ethical and scientific questions. “

This event is hosted by Faraday Institute for Science and Religion and Keswick Ministries.
