Published by Jeff, on August 12th, 2007 in 036 WHY: Life's Biggest Questions, Front Page, Lafayette, Lafayette Community Church.For 6 weeks, we will be exploring the six biggest questions in life.
- Why am I here?
- Why should I believe in God?
- Why should I trust the Bible?
- Why is the world so messed up?
- Why is there such conflict between Science and the Bible?
- Why Jesus?
It’s going to be a powerful program combining dynamic Sunday worship experiences with casual but deep discussion groups. I’ve been looking forward to it for 3 months now!
In many ways, I’ve been thinking of this 6 week campaign as a re-launch of the church. During the summer, our attendance went down quite a bit, but now that school is starting up again, I’m really hoping that we can get a jump-start on this new year by launching this campaign.
I want every Sunday service to be a real event. More than that, I’m really eager to see us take the life of the church to a new level. Here are my personal dreams for the campaign.
- That we would get more than 50 people solidly involved in a small group experience.
- That our Sunday attendance would double.
- That all our volunteers and campaign directors would be encouraged and excited all the way through.
- That the campaign would launch us full speed into the Fall.
- That we’d get a solid small group thing happening combined with memorable Sunday gatherings.
These things are so doable, and I believe God can easily accomplish them all. I’m eager to see it!

Explain to me, how this fits in with primates??? With all due respect, i think his aim with "god set it up that way" was meant to be an insult of some kind. He sounds very passionate about this subject and with passion comes biases. While i'm not researched in anyway on this specific argument, generally speaking i'm convinced these people only look at their "evidence" with one prospective; 1st proves evolution or doesn't.. They don't even consider any other possibility of what it could mean..Taken at face value because i don't know anything about the human gnome and could be missing key things due to pure ignorance. Start of video; You had plenty of time to research and form a "theory" on something then proceed to drop this well researched project on someone and expect them to refute you on the drop of dime?? I dont think you need a PHD to say; you should allow someone to try refute your findings within a respectable time frame. That seems like the most objective thing to do. Although i think this would show insecurity on "Ken's" part. (To have holes punched in something your just presenting would be kind embarrassing. or was it arrogance?) Rest of video: Sounds like its not an exact match, "within 15 bases", and something about Telomeres not belonging? The choice of "correspond with" instead of something like is "exactly like", implicates some differences as well?.. But i could be completely wrong.. "no reason, no rhyme" sounds like he is insulting the bible as well. Would be very interested in hearing a completely objective view on these findings..
