Origins

Our Pastor started a new lecture series yesterday, and to my surprise it was titled "Origins"...YaY! So, for the next several Sundays we'll be overviewing Genesis 1-11.

If you'd like to hear the first lecture in this series, you can listen here.

I have two teenage boys who don't usually get too excited about much...especially church sermons...hehe. But, as we left the church yesterday, my youngest (7th grade) piped up, "Mom, I loved that sermon...it really got me thinking". Okay, so comments like that kinda make my day..:) My eldest is in 9th grade and studying cells, DNA, etc. at the moment. It's fun to share what I'm learning from Meyer's book, Signature in the Cell, with him. The church lecture series, his biology class, and my current reading endeavour all seem to overlap atm. Kinda fun.

Stephen Meyer Debates Peter Atkins

A radio debate between Signature in the Cell author Stephen Meyer and Oxford University chemist and “new atheist” Peter Atkins can be found here.

Stephen Meyer does an *outstanding* job of debating Atkins in this hour long exchange. I had a few giggles over Atkins predictable rhetoric.

For Christmas, Santa brought me a copy of Meyer's new book, Signature in the Cell. I am enjoying this book like no other. Be sure to pick up a copy.
