Spring Seminar 

Christians in an evolving Universe

Explore how our encounter with God profoundly shapes our understanding of the world and what it means to be human.
Encounter some of the new discoveries contemporary theologians have made about our Creator God and humanity’s place in the unfolding universe.
Ponder new developments in the Christian understanding of sin and grace.
Tackle the realities occurring at the end of life, namely, death, resurrection, judgment, heaven and hell. Glimpse the end-times through an evolutionary lens as the final fulfillment of all creation in communion with the Triune God
