Dallas Conference on Science and Faith 2020
Welcome, Denton Bible Church.
According to a nationwide survey, more than two-thirds of atheists and one-third of agnostics believe that “the findings of science make the existence of God less probable,” while nearly half of self-identified theists believe “the findings of science are neutral with regard to the existence of God.”
But what if there is another option? What if the discoveries of science actually lend support to belief in God?
Tackle this question head-on at the upcoming Dallas Conference on Science and Faith 2020 on January 25. Held on the campus of Denton Bible Church, the conference will explore exciting scientific discoveries about the origin of the universe, the origin of life, and the development of biological complexity, as well as critique the scientific and cultural impact of Darwinism.
Speakers will include Lehigh University biochemist Michael Behe, author of Darwin Devolves; Discovery Institute Senior Fellow Stephen Meyer, author of The Return of the God Hypothesis (forthcoming); Biola University molecular biologist Douglas Axe, author of Undeniable; Baylor University Distinguished Professor of Engineering Emeritus Walter Bradley, co-author of The Mystery of Life’s Origin; and Discovery Institute Senior Fellow John West, author of Darwin Day in America. Each talk will be followed by Q and A with the audience, and there will be time for book signing.
This year there will be a youth track with special sessions just for high school students to interact with the speakers.
