MADE IN HIS IMAGE SEMINAR
What determines the value of human life? How do we measure its worth, and what steps can we take to protect and cherish it? These profound questions are at the heart of ongoing debates in today’s culture, where ideas about the meaning and value of life are often challenged. To find true and lasting answers, we must look to the Creator of life, the ultimate source of purpose and design, for a correct understanding of what it means to be human and why life is sacred.
On January 18th, 2025, the ICR Discovery Center will host its annual Made in His Image Seminar, an inspiring event dedicated to celebrating the sanctity of human life and exploring its profound significance. This special gathering will feature engaging and thought-provoking presentations by two renowned speakers.
Dr. Randy Guliuzza , a respected voice in the field of creation science, will delve into the extraordinary design behind human life, highlighting the intricate complexity and purpose that reflect the work of an intelligent Creator. His insights will offer a fresh perspective on why human life is not only unique but also precious beyond measure. Additionally, Mr. Jay Seegert founder of The Starting Point Project, will equip attendees with practical tools to defend the value of life in a culture often at odds with its sacredness. His dynamic presentation will empower individuals to confidently articulate the reasons why every human life is worth protecting and honoring.
This seminar will be an enlightening experience, combining science, faith, and apologetics to deepen our appreciation for the Creator's handiwork and strengthen our ability to advocate for the sanctity of life in our communities and beyond. Join us for this inspiring event and take part in celebrating the wonder and value of human life.
