In our previous Socrates Forums, we showed that the scientific evidence of the last 50 years agrees more with the biblical view of Creation (there is a supernatural Creator) than it does with the current secular philosophical basis of Naturalism (nature is all there is). You may be surprised that the Bible also has better explanations based on evidence for why the world is in such a mess and the solutions it offers. That will be the theme of the new 4-week study “What’s the Bible’s View of Reality?” to be held in our home in SaddleBrooke, AZ, Oct 27, Nov 3,10, 17.
Join us whether skeptic or a believer
Skeptics will find these spiritual answers perhaps challenging to their current worldview. Believers will a gain deeper understanding of their faith, and hopefully even a better understanding their meaning, purpose, and calling.
This kind of study requires personal conversation and Q&A. Therefore, we will hosting it in our home in SaddleBrooke, AZ as a 4-week small group study. The disadvantage is that we must limit it to no more than 15 people at a time. But we will run the series multiple times as demand dictates. The Fall series will start on Tuesdays, October 27 and continue on subsequent Tuesdays November 3, 10, and 17, 4:00-5:30pm. A Winter series will begin in January and continue as demand dictates.
The small group format will also provide an opportunity for additional cross-
The current study is based on the excellent documentary Truth Rising which traces the foundation of Western Civilization from its Christian roots until today. We may be facing the decline of Western Civilization because of our abandonment of transcendentals: Truth, Goodness, and Beauty (think relativism, postmodernism, secularism, et. al.). View the documentary at www.truthrising.com or search YouTube for “Truth Rising.”
We are at a “civilization moment,” a tipping point when either our Western culture will be renewed or die. This is not a political statement; it is a spiritual statement. When an entire civilization abandons the spiritual foundation that gave birth to it, the consequences are always dramatic. History tells us there has never been a totally secular society that has survived. Why do we think America can be the first?
Every human culture has had a fundamental, transcendental belief system that established its meaning and purpose, morality, and basis for its governing structure. For Western Civilization that has been that the Bible is God’s Word, and Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior. Sure, America was founded on the separation of church and state, but also that America would be successful as a self-governing republic only if as we maintained it as “one nation under God.” We are at the cusp of throwing that belief away.
Make your reservation now, as there are only 15 spots max for the 4-week Fall series. We’re encouraging couples to come together. If you don’t make the reservation list for the Fall series, we plan to have another series in January. Remember, it is important to watch the documentary Truth Rising on which the study is based. When we receive your reservation, you will be sent access to a Participant Guide and directions to our home.
