Description

Designed for pastors with all levels of familiarity in the realm of science, the 2010 Pastors’ Conference seeks to recover the sense of wonder and worship that emerges from the disciplines of scientific discovery, re-awakening the inquisitiveness and curiosity that ought to characterize us as persons made in the image of God the Creator —commissioned to continue his creative work. Be equipped to affirm the work of scientists as devotion, to invoke in our young people fearlessness about discovering all reality, and spur on our people to fulfill what it means to be humans fully alive, living out the first great mission given to all humans—the creation mandate. Engage the controversial matters, but above all, discover and begin to develop a way of thinking and being that is the heart of the Gospel, which calls us to live in creation and participate joyfully in the new creation.
