Why, after more than fifty years of modern science–theology study and public science–faith discourse, are so many churches still not listening? What can we do about it? We’ll look at what the problem might be, success stories, and consider possible solutions towards getting the church, and its message, more aligned with science (without watering down the message!).

About the Speaker

He studied at Cambridge and Durham in the UK, then a career in oil and gas took him around the globe until he settled in Perth. He is married with three adult children and attends Mount Pleasant Baptist Church. He cycles, climbs, volunteers, and coordinates the Perth chapter of ISCAST.
