Transcript

The idea of evolution and millions of years is in direct opposition to what God’s Word teaches. You can’t blend the two together without damaging His Word. Instead, we need to stand boldly on what the Scriptures teach.

Now, does this mean we shouldn’t teach our kids evolution?

Well, not exactly. You see, our young people need to be able to articulate the opposing position but also demonstrate why it fails. This shows that you care and are well-studied. If you don’t know what those who disagree with you believe, how can you effectively dialogue with them? And how could you explain to them why their ideas are wrong?

We need to show kids how the evidence confirms God’s Word.
