An Eagerness in the Youth – For the Truth!
A while back I had flown to Michigan to speak at a regional youth event. After the first evening’s creation presentation, it was time for games. Many of the youth participated in the games, but there were several who did not. They had questions about Creation and Genesis, so we had a Creation/Genesis session that lasted for about two hours. It began with just a few kids, but as time passed, more and more joined in with the discussions. I was greatly encouraged to see...

Ten people participated in the training. We were much encouraged by their interest in creation teaching, the quality of their presentations, the depth of discussion, and the great times of fellowship. We started doing intensive Creation Training Weeks back in 2006, to help individuals deepen their knowledge and...

On a recent trip, I boarded a plane from Grand Junction to Denver; my final destination was Belding, MI. Usually I am seated by adults, but this time I had the privilege of sitting by a twelve year old boy from Canada. He was a bright young lad and, would you know it, was interested in dinosaurs!
