The Reason for God
Belief in an Age of Skepticism
7:30pm. Dinkelspiel Auditorium
Author—The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism. Senior Pastor—Redeemer Presbyterian Church.
Why isn't Christianity more inclusive? How can we believe in God when there's so much suffering in the world? Doesn't Christianity stifle personal freedom and destroy social cohesion? Why has the church been guilty of so much violence, injustice, and oppression? Isn't the bible culturally regressive, and historically unreliable?
Dr. Timothy Keller, noted author of The Reason for God, will engage these concerns and more, followed by a time of Q&A.
