How much do we trust our media?

Posted in: Uncategorized

In light of all the recent news concerning the Swine Flu, lots of folks are asking whether this is “real” or just “hype”. Either way you spin it, one thing becomes evident… People have a great fear of the unknown. Case in point is my daughter’s elementary school which is closed this week because of one confirmed case of influenza-A in a first grader. While I understand the reason to be cautious, this is akin to closing school for a snow day at the sign of the first snowflake. Soccer games, ballet, and other activities will likely continue… and some parents may need to either miss work or make other arrangements. So, can we believe the hype that we hear in the media or should we be less reactionary? Your thoughts… Talk amongst yourselves.

The Creation Conversation

Posted in: Ministry Video

creation_small_web_4-19-09On April 19, 2009, Watermark hosted a forum that included scientists, authors and scholars deeply immersed in origin theory and its implications.

These presentations explore scientific arguments intended to equip those interested in understanding more about the science behind and the strengths and weaknesses of both Intelligent Design and Darwinistic evolution theories. Our hope is that this content provides you with the opportunity to draw meaningful conclusions about the significance these two theories hold for views on God, morality and society.

Panelists: Michael J. Behe, Professor of Biological Sciences at Lehigh University; David Berlinksi, author, mathematician, philosopher; Stephen Meyer, Director of the Center for Science and Culture at the Discovery Institute; Todd Wagner, pastor, Watermark Community Church.

I personally thought this was great stuff.  We had a packed house of nearly 3000 people (standing in the lobby, overflow rooms, sitting in the aisles.) who came to learn more about the side of science that isn’t taught in the classroom.

You can find the audio and video resources at www.watermarkradio.com or directly from this link here.
