Interpreting God's Two Books
The Origins lecture series was a multi-session dialogue between CCU's School of Theology and the School of Science and Engineering on the topic of the origins of the universe and of human beings. In the series, we examined and discussed these origins from both theological and scientific perspectives.
One goal was to get students and friends of CCU to think about the fields of science and theology and how they each approach the topic of origins. Our common goal for the series was additionally to show that academics in both theology and science can dialogue in friendly terms on this topic. We both agree and sometimes also disagree on the details of origins. Where we may disagree, those disagreements are peripheral to our common faith in Jesus, not central pillars of our faith.
