The world is changing rapidly. Scientific discoveries and technological advancements are opening up worlds of possibilities. Christians are being faced with challenges and questions they’ve never had to consider before. How can we live as faithful followers of Jesus in our techno-scientific world, and respond to the complex challenges and opportunities that it presents?
Join us at ISCAST’s biennial Conference on Science and Christianity (COSAC 2022) as we come together to dive into this topic over 2 days. This conference is designed to equip and encourage Christians from all backgrounds to grapple with issues at the intersection of science and Christianity, and to offer plenty of opportunities to connect with others interested in the science–faith conversation.
