There are only two options on how the universe came to be: by chance or design. Either the universe came from nothing with no purpose OR the universe was planned by an Intelligent Designer who finely-tuned it for life. At Faith Beyond Belief’s Be Ready 2019 conferences in Calgary and Edmonton, hear scientists explain how God can be found in science. Other topics include how to love our gay neighbours without compromising Biblical truth, the problems with naturalism and how to speak to skeptics about God.
UNDERSTANDING GENESIS
There are many opinions and subsequent interpretations on the Book of Genesis. What did the author of Genesis intend and how can we possibly know, or is the important thing only what the Bible “means to you”? Is there one correct interpretation of the Bible, or are there many? Discover why alternative positions are rationally impossible. Unlock a powerful understanding of God’s Word and equip yourself with a reasoned defense against those who distort the Word of God.
THE ATHEIST EXPERIENCE
How would you fare in a conversation with an atheist? Could you defend the faith with more than “the Bible says so” or “I just have faith?” Find out as Brett role plays an atheist for your group. This will challenge you to evaluate your knowledge of Christianity and your ability to defend it (or lack of). You’ll walk away motivated like never before.
THE CELL’S DESIGN
Biochemist Fazale Rana, PhD, uses a common scientific method based on pattern recognition to identify the God of the Bible as the Creator. Going far beyond irreducible complexity, Rana shows how the molecular features of the cell—some of the smallest structures in nature—manifest the same characteristics displayed in human designs. This similarity points to a resonance between the mind of man and the mind of God.
MINISTERING TO OUR LGBT FRIENDS
Rev Sam Allberry explains how churches and other Christian groups can begin to minister to those who identify with the LGBT community. He explains practical tips on how Christians can love their LGBT-identified friends and family without compromising the life-saving truth found in scripture.
