In this sermon, we briefly review the different approaches to reconciling science and Scripture and then discuss five reasons why affirming biblical origins is important.



Genesis

"In the beginning..." We live in a day and age where there are so many different opinions on our origins. What we see from Scripture is that Genesis lays the foundation for all important Christian doctrines and neither science or new theologies can undermine what God has said.
