The Human Body: How Does a Christian Surgeon View its Design?

Description

Is the human body God's masterpiece, His most magnificent creation? In this Seeking Understanding episode, we explore ways in which the human body is beautiful, precise, and efficient, down to the smallest detail. Does our body reveal that we are uniquely created based on God’s design principles of love and compassion? David Pennington is the world's first plastic surgeon to successfully reattach a human ear and a pioneer of techniques used to restore those who have suffered terrible injuries. But no surgical technique works without taking advantage of our miraculous ability to heal naturally. Is this a revelation of God’s love by anticipating our challenges in a world scared by sin? Dr. Pennington draws attention not just to the brilliant pattern of design in a flawless body, but also the beauty of an imperfect body that can heal itself. Incredibly, some of this comes from his realization that part of our body operates on a principle used in rocket science! How does the evidence Dr. Pennington observes in the human body match up to evolutionary theory? Watch the entire video and draw your own conclusion.
