and disagree on views of the origin of the universe?

about the origin of the universe make in how that person lives his or her life?
CWV 101 Topic 2 DQ 2

so important to the Christian worldview?
CWV Week 2 Assignment
Origins Reflection
Details:
In this assignment you will summarize
beliefs about the origin of the universe and life, including what Christians
believe, what you believe, and how people’s beliefs about origins might impact
how they live.
After reflecting on Chapters 1 and 2 of
Genesis, create a 15-slide PowerPoint presentation
covering the following topics, paying particular emphasis on item three:
1. Briefly
explain the Genesis account of creation (first two chapters). The point is not
to retell all aspects of the story in detail but just
to make the message of the Bible clear.
2. Explain
and support your interpretation of the origin of the universe. Here you may
want to address evolution, age of the earth, and whether or not it can be
reconciled with the message of the Bible.
3. Express
how your understanding of the origin of the universe
impacts your worldview, specifically your view of God, of humanity, and
responsibility to care for the earth.
The first slide will be the title slide
including your name and course information. The last slide(s) will be your list of references. You may use the
textbook, the lecture, or other scholarly references. Cite all sources,
including the Bible, as you would in an essay. The in-text citations should be
placed on the actual slides in the presentation so the
audience can see them. Put basic content on the actual slides and elaborate on
all your points in the slide notes.
In an effort to keep the file sizes
reasonable, use no more than four low-resolution images. As in all aspects of
this course, show respect for all other views, with
no condescension. Keep your presentation positive and focused on what you
believe, not on what you do not believe.
Use one to three resources, other than
the Bible.
While GCU style format is not required
for the body of this assignment, solid academic
writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented
using GCU documentation guidelines, which can be found in the GCU Style Guide,
located in the Student Success Center.
