Hour 1: A Challenge To Richard Dawkins
In 2009, famed atheist Richard Dawkins proposed a test for evolution. If Darwinism is correct, he claimed, every gene in a group of organisms will give “approximately the same tree of life.” On the other hand, if intelligent design is an accurate depiction of the origin of life, a designer would pick and choose the best proteins for the job, and genes would NOT all give the same tree of genetic resemblances. Join us as we ask a geologist to tell us who won that challenge: Richard Dawkins or Intelligent Design?
Hour 2: Betrayal
Betrayal is a horrible experience for anyone who knows what it means to have trust broken. Even Jesus knew what it was to be betrayed. For all who have suffered from this, join us to learn 10 steps to heal from betrayal. We will open the phone lines so you can ask your questions on this topic to one of our favorite Christian counselors. Join us so she can encourage you!
