Science and Faith: Equipping Christian leaders for ministry in a scientific world

for 6 hours
Chester Cathedral
St Werburgh Street Chester, CH1 2DY, United Kingdom

No matter who we are, or where we come from, we are all impacted by science and faith, and the questions they raise. We might have questions about the ethics of new discoveries and technologies, whether there is scientific ‘proof for God’, or why we feel such awe and wonder when watching nature documentaries.

In a 2018 survey, 30% of non-religious people and about 10% of Christians surveyed thought the church was ‘not compatible with science’ (World Vision/Barna).

So how do we respond to that? Join us for this interactive workshop designed for Christian leaders – whether ordained, lay, or active and experienced members of a local church. Come and be equipped to engage with scientific issues in the day-to-day life of your ministry context.

Brought to you by The Faraday Institute for Science and Religion in partnership with Chester Cathedral.

Tickets £30
