Today's speaker was Jay Seegert from the Creation Education Center of Wisconsin. He spoke with us about defending our faith, examining scripture, and creationism.
Jay shared that 50-75% of Christian students will set aside their faith by the time they leave college. For many of these students it is because they have a set of belief without convictions. We need to investigate and understand why we believe what we believe.
Then he shared some evidence in scripture to support the belief that the Bible truly is the inspired word of God....and not merely a bunch of "Just So" stories that we tell our kids in Sunday school.
He went on to explain the difference between operational and historical science. All scientists have the same facts/evidence. They just have different interpretations of those facts based on their own belief systems and biases.
