BioLogos Voices speaker Ted Davis will be speaking at “Science and the Christian Faith: Moments that Shaped History” at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest, North Carolina from February 21-22, 2020.

“Science and faith have a long, complex and storied relationship. We’re convinced that better understanding the past can help us better navigate the future.

To that end, we cordially invite you to Science and the Christian Faith: Moments That Shaped History at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary on February 21-22.

At this one-of-a-kind conference, you’ll discover the stories behind key historical events that shaped our understanding of faith and science — from Aquinas and Galileo to the Scopes Trial. You’ll learn directly from leading scientists, theologians and historians such as Drs. Peter Harrison (University of Queensland), Michael Murray (Arthur Vining Davis Foundation), Ted Cabal (Southern Seminary), Ted Davis (Messiah College) and Nathan Finn (North Greenville University).

The Science and the Christian Faith conference will surely make for a lively, engaging weekend — and we want you to be a part of it.”
