August Creation Series Comes to an End

The August Creation/Genesis series of Can You Defend What You Believe came to an end last light Wednesday, August 25, 2010. The series of four Wednesday evening presentations to the teens at Family Heritage Church concluded with "Creation, the Best Theory".  In this presentation Pastor Bill Peters, the founder of In The Beginning Ministries provides ways to begin a creation conversation using secular evidences.  Many times when talking with unbelievers, if we immediately begin by telling them that Genesis says this, they will stop talking or change the subject.  But by introducing secular evidences that support the Biblical concept of creation, you can keep the conversation going.

By using secular evidences, such as the scientific law of Biogenesis (that states that life only comes from life and of its kind), or the second law of Thermo Dynamics "entropy" (that states that all things tend to disorder), we can challenge the evolutionary and millions of years beliefs of the non-believer and even those beliefs of Christians who hold to Old Earth and evolutionary ideas.

"The time I spent with these young people at Family Heritage Church was very exciting. They were engaged, and had a lot of questions.  More importantly, they had a lot of answers. It was a great month that went by to fast".
