Adventist History: Creation of the Geoscience Research Institute
25 Oct 2023
This week in Adventist history, we look into the creation of the Geoscience Research Institute (GRI) on October 25, 1957 through the proposal of then General Conference President R. R. Figuhr.
This proposal aimed at studying the connection between contemporary science and the biblical account of creation. Its mission was to explore the natural world in a manner consistent with the Adventist World Church's fundamental belief on creation.
