Origins

The doctrine of God as Creator is under attack, and the media and schools want people to believe a false narrative about the origin of life.

The world wants an explanation of the beginning, but science will never be able to discover it. The Bible provides the objective foundation for our faith and gives us insight into the matter of origins, revealing the special place of mankind and God's creation. [... more]
