Wordpress error: strips() expects parameter 1 to be string... What's the mean and how do I fix it?

Here’s what’s going on:
I’m the webmaster for our local Rotary who sponsors a 5k. I’m a PHP developer by trade and, but I’m by no means a WordPress ninja.
Recently, an automatic upgrade was done to our server which made certain parts of our antiquated Enfold theme obsolete. I purchased a new theme and installed the “theme only” content into the “themes” directory.
Immediately, I saw a big difference in terms of the front page as the rotating carousel is now back so we’re cooking with grease. However, I still have these errors and I don’t know what they mean or how to fix them. They’re all coming from the header.php file in the child directory.
Warning: strpos() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /home4/grey5k/public_html/
Warning: strpos() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /home4/grey5k/public_html/
Warning: strpos() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /home4/grey5k/public_html/
I’ve got the code for the header.php below. Any idea as to what these errors are and how to fix them?
