Euthanasia - Speaking @ UBC Okanagan November 7th

Written by Mike Penninga on .

image002I have a pretty interesting and unique opportunity coming up Monday November 7th. I've been invited to join a philosophy class of 125 nursing students at UBCO as they wrestle with the subject of Euthanasia, Physician Assisted Suicide. How this came about was I had written a masters paper on the subject which somehow came across the desk of the philosophy professor, who liked it, and asked permission to share it with his class, and whether I'd be able to come in and present and take questions.

Please be in prayer for this opportunity, that I might have wisdom and grace and God's favor as I speak. I'll let you know how it goes!

You can read the paper here: http://kgfchurch.com/resources/research-papers

You can watch a 2 minute video of me explaining this opportunity here:

You can watch a video of me sharing about it in church October 30th here: 

You can read a statement on Euthanasia from our denomination here:

Please be in prayer as I present that God would give me wisdom and clarity and favor!

Pastor Mike Penninga

Having just now read your euthanasia paper, I can certainly see why you've been asked to speak to medical students about this. Your detail and thought into it was amazing!

You will do wonderful there... I have no doubt that students of a science that values human life will be very receptive to your point of view.
