Emphasis Courses

God has left a record of His judgment in the rocks and geological formations of earth, but also a record of living creatures, some of which have never been seen in our era. There is much for science students and faculty to study as we learn more about the creative genius of our Creator from the stone-cold rocks of the earth. “In the beginning God created…” is the very origin of the geoscience program, and budding scientists will learn that the true and revealed history of the earth only takes a bit of digging.
