I am looking forward to participating in the Conference on Science and Christianity in Launceston, 26-28 August. The theme of the conference will be “Disenchantment: Faith and Science in a Secular World”.

The main guest speaker will be Prof Nancy Murphy, Philosopher Theologian from Fuller Seminary in Pasadena California. Dr Denis Alexander, founder and director of the Faraday Institute in Cambridge will be speaking on “From Descartes to Dawkins – Biology and Ideology”. I will be leading the devotions and participating in a panel.

Please consider participating in this conference as it will be a great learning opportunity for everyone attending. If you do wish to attend, follow this link http://www.iscast.org/cosac_2011 and you can register for the conference online. Register before the end of June to get an early bird rate!
