Where Faith and Science Meet


Are faith and science mutually exclusive ideas?  Or do they complement one another? Do the latest scientific discoveries about our universe, life and medicine threaten religious faith? Or confirm it?  Has science moved humanity beyond its need for religious faith (as some have proposed)?  Or is faith more important now than ever?  

Join me January 9-February 6, 2022 at all our worship services at McKendree United Methodist Church either in-person or online as we explore the relationship between science and Christian faith. 

    January 9 -- God and Galileo (Acts 17:24-28a)
        An overview of the relationship between faith and science

    January 16 -- God and the Big Bang (Psalm 19:1-6)
        All about our amazing, miraculous universe

    January 23 -- Adam and Apes (Genesis 1:20-31)
        Thoughts on the origins of humanity

    January 30 -- Body, Mind & Spirit (Luke 8:43-48)
        The connections between faith and medical science

    February 6  -- ‘New Science’ and the Future of Faith (Romans 1:19-20a)
        The impact of science on faith
