“Many people have heard of only two positions on origins: young earth creationism and atheistic evolutionism. Yet Christians today hold a variety of views, including views which accept the scientific evidence for an old universe and even evolution while also upholding the scriptural authority and God as the Creator and Designer.  Come for an overview of multiple Christian views on origins, an introduction to the key scientific evidence, and reflections on what it all means for our view of God … and ourselves.”
