Creation Training

Posted on Jul 1, 2010 in Nuttings from the Front | 0 comments

We are excited! A new batch of trainees are here for this week’s Creation Teaching Training Session. We have already heard that some have a heart for children, some for adults, a couple college age students want to reach high school and college students, and another has an intense interest to reach Latinos. These are small groups, so it gives us more time to help jump-start them to reach their goals. Since I have gotten grayer (prematurely), it blesses me to see younger...

But Only God Can Make A Tree

We came home the other night after 3 weeks out teaching VBS’. It was good to get home for a little R&R before we head out to do 3 more VBS’, a Bible camp, and several churches yet this summer. The first thing we did as we climbed out of our motorhome was to head towards our pond. Ryan (one of our son-in-laws) had reported a great wind had come through earlier in the week and blew over the willow tree by the pond. He was right … there it lay with its roots exposed to the...

Attendance and interest were great at the CHEC Conference in Denver last week. We were able to share with many people the need for creation science in their home education program. One woman shared how they were using the AOI DVD program to ground their children in a Christian worldview and help them to effectively defend their faith in a skeptical world. We also saw a real interest in attending one of our Creation Mountain Adventures at Redcloud Ranch – either...

Recently, I was talking with two women I had just met. I found out that one of the women was familiar with creation evidences. After talking a short time, she asked if we might be available to do a program in her church. At that, the other woman also invited us to her town. When I asked if she attended a church that would be interested in a seminar, she said she went to a Hindu temple. Now that would be interesting! I asked her what Hinduism teaches about evolution. She...

Faith Cometh By Hearing

Posted on Jun 22, 2010 in Johnsons from the Front | 0 comments

After a VBS session last night, a young man in high school approached Marilyn and I, asking if we would be willing to talk to him. This was shortly after a presentation of the gospel message. We spent about an hour with him, and without disclosing any of the private conversation that occurred, we came to the conclusion that he did believe in what Jesus did on the cross. However, he admitted that he was not following the Lord in practice and had fallen into the wrong crowd....
