Science and Spirituality: The Journey of the Universe From an Environmental Perspective with Dick Lewis

In-Person

Dates: TBD

Time: TBD

A warm welcome to long-time Knowledge Exchange participant Dick Lewis as he leads his first 8-week course for The Knowledge Exchange inspired by his passion for the Universe and its Creator.

Based on the book (and film), The Journey of the Universe, Dick will use recorded interviews, short videos and film clips to create a dialogue around Cosmic and Earth Evolution.  From the Big Bang to the epic impact Humans have on the planet today, this course aims to inspire us towards a closer relationship with Earth in a period of growing environmental and social crisis.

The big question to ponder about evolution and this journey is "how does something come from nothing and how does anything NEW get created?"

When paired with an 8-week morning course, this course qualifies for the second 8-week course discount of $35; enter or mention the Promo Code TKE2 at Check Out.
