Wherefore Art the Begats?
Multimedia Presentation by
Dan Kreft
Cedar Park Church
June 30th, 2021
Description:
Does studying long lists of funny-sounding names so enrapture you that you find yourself studying them deep into the night, or do you keep them on hand as a homeopathic cure for insomnia? In this humor-filled presentation, I do the unthinkable–I make "the begats" fun. Learn what the purpose is for each of the five major genealogies in the Bible, and find out if we really can use them to estimate the age of the earth; the answer may surprise you.

About the Speaker:
Dan Kreft, the Seven-Foot Apologist, is a cross-generational teacher, itinerant speaker, and author of the three-volume book, “Jesus” Is Not the Answer to Every Sunday School Question. In addition to his own ministry, he also serves as an adjunct instructor for Mike Riddle's Creation Training Initiative, and is on the board of directors for the Apologetics Forum of Snohomish County. Dan earned a BS in electrical engineering from Northwestern University, where he gained notoriety by becoming the first NCAA Division I student-athlete to keep what would later come to be known as a "blog," which earned him an invitation to write for Sports Illustrated. After graduating, he played professional basketball for three years, including a rather memorable encounter against Shaquille O'Neal. Though he's been developing websites professionally since 1995, Dan’s passion is to equip and encourage the body of Christ to confidently deliver biblical responses to skeptical assaults on our faith, with a particular emphasis on the sufficiency and authority of Scripture, starting with the very first verse.
The Apologetics Symposium is an educational program addressing the conflicts that exist between naturalism and the Biblical worldview. As part of a weekly Wednesday evening series, this program features a different speaker each month. Join us at Cedar Park Church or through our live webcast.
