Are Christianity and evolution truly compatible? How are Christians supposed to balance faith and science in understanding the origins of life, biodiversity, and even human beings? And is there more to the story than simply saying God must have somehow used evolution to create? 

All these questions, and more, are the subject of a new documentary series filming this summer! 

Steve Greene, Director of Holy Family Institute of Catholic Faith and Life, will be traveling to Poland for two weeks this summer to film a 10-part interview series with Fr. Michael Chaberek, OP, a Dominican priest who has written extensively in support of the new theory of Progressive Creationism - an orthodox, Christian alternative to the evolutionary theory of origins, which synthesizes the latest science with the best of the Catholic philosophical and theological tradition (see video above).

We are working to raise the funds to cover travel costs for the team, and equipment costs for the project. Once completed this video series will be available online, FREE of charge, as a resource for anyone interested in evolution and Christianity, and the relationship between faith and science in general.

Your prayers for this project are most appreciated, and if you are able to make a financial contribution - of any amount - and share this campaign with others, that would be a huge blessing, as well! You can see a breakdown of expenses for the project below. 

Thank you for your support. We look forward to sharing this important project with you, and the world!
