Oasis Church at The Wharf
Is the earth billions of years old or less than 10,000 years old? Can science and the Bible be reconciled? The answer is, “Yes.” This Sunday we continue our study of the Book of Genesis focusing on the creation of the earth.
In 2017 the documentary, “Is Genesis History?” was released; it “explores the world to see how it intersects with the stories related in Genesis. Del Tackett of ‘The Truth Project’ hikes through canyons, climbs mountains, and dives below the sea to examine two competing views – one compelling truth.” In light of our current sermon series, we believe this movie does a very good job in answering the question it proposes and encourage its viewing. It is available on Netflix and Amazon Prime.
