This session will explore the diverse positions held by Christians regarding the concept of creation, including various perspectives on evolution. Attendees will gain insight into the belief that, when interpreted correctly, science and the Bible can coexist harmoniously. While the interpretation of these perspectives remains a topic of debate, this discussion will emphasise that the diversity of Christian viewpoints allows for a broad range of perspectives, all of which support the compatibility of science and Christianity.
