I am writing a news article on the origin of everything, and wanted to blog on a couple of thoughts. There are basically two ideas about how everything came to be. One is that an intelligent “being” created all things. As a Christian who believes the Bible is true, I say this intelligent “being” is none other than the eternal living God of the Bible, Who has the power to do all things. The second idea is that an eternal nothing created all things. However, this idea...
Read MoreA Note of Thanksgiving
Notes like the one below are a great encouragement as we prepare for 2011. “Hi, Everyone! Thank you for your ministry! My oldest son, who is 15, had been taking Marine Biology and Oceanography at the local community college. He’s had the same professor for both classes. This teacher is hard core evolution in thought. My son said he was thankful and glad that he got to hear your seminars, because he said if he hadn’t, he would have easily gone to the side of...
Read MoreTeaching Revelation in India
In preparation for another creation tour to India in Jan. and Feb. 2011, I am planning what new topics I will teach. Not only are the Indians interested in Genesis and creation, I have discovered they are also fascinated with the book of Revelation and end times. This became apparent while I was teaching from Genesis, there are many similarities between Revelation and Genesis, and they began asking many questions about Revelation. Being limited on time, I quickly...
Read MoreWhen Snakes Fly
You have all probably heard the statement “when pigs fly”, but have you heard “when snakes fly”? That’s right, snakes can fly, well, they actually glide. Scientists have discovered a strange species of snakes located in Southeast Asia, India, and southern China that can glide. You have heard children say, ‘Look mom, no hands’. Well these snakes have neither wings, nor wing like appendages, to help them glide. How do the snakes do this? The...
Read MoreAfrican Mosquito is fulfilling God’s mandate
The African Mosquito is fulfilling God’s mandate to be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth. The African Mosquito, which transmits most of the malaria in sub-Saharan Africa is adapting to a different habitat. One variation (the M type) is adapted to where there is a more permanent supply of water, and now another variation (the S type) is adapting to short-lived bits of water. Is that evolution? No. The two varieties are physically indistinguishable from each other...
Read MorePlanning from the homestead
We are home for the holidays and busy scheduling our creation tours for next year. I am planning to travel again to India in January and February. Then in March and April, we will be in Iowa and Illinois. I do have a few dates I need to fill. If you are reading this blog and know of some churches or organizations that would benefit from a creation seminar, please call the AOI office or myself at 970-263-4196. The most difficult part of my job is planning a speaking...
Read MoreIn The Public School Arena: Highschool and University
In Harrison, NE, I had the unique opportunity to speak in a public school. Over a two day period, I spoke to four different science classes. Some of the students already believed in creation, so the teaching reinforced their beliefs, but others were doubtful, and so the information was a challenge for them to rethink what they believe. Many of the students also attended our evening seminars held at a local church. We appreciate the Christian teachers in public schools,...
Read MoreThank You for sending Us!
We are returning from a month of speaking in WY, NE, and SD. It has been a fruitful time of teaching and fellowship. While we were at Frontier School of the Bible in WY, we had the privilege of enjoying an Austrian breakfast at the home of Harald and Helga. They had come to the U.S. several years ago in order to thank Christians for sending missionaries to their country, which resulted in their salvation. Their hearts were filled with gratitude. While here, they heard...
Read MoreGreat on the Frontier
We had a great week at Frontier School of the Bible. I taught Monday through Friday during their chapel time. Many of the students had questions, so there were plenty of discussions after chapel, at breaktime, and also during meals. Some of the students desired extra creation information – so the afternoon proved a good time to teach on other creation topics. The students and staff were very encouraged by the information and talks. We also had the pleasure of...
Read MoreContinuing to Go Well
I just want to finish up the the details of our time at Cornerstone Bible Institute, again, things went very well. Tuesday through Thursday, I had the opportunity to teach in Chapel and on Monday I taught the Genesis class. I was able to cover Genesis chapters 2-3 in a subsequent Genesis class. Wednesday evening I presented ‘The Folly of Dolly and Stem Cells’. It was an eye opener for some people. The teaching at Crawford, NE also went very well. On Sunday morning, I...
Read MoreThe Blessing of Teaching
Teaching at Cornerstone Bible Institute was a blessing! The students were very inquisitive and eager to learn. On Monday mornings, the freshmen would attend a two hour Genesis class. I was invited to teach my Genesis series as part of the class. Usually each chapter takes about an hour to teach, but we spent two hours on chapter one alone, and were still unable to finish it . I continued the next week in finishing chapter one and went on to the subsequent chapters. ...
Read MoreGod is Good!
God is sooo Good! We recently had a last minute cancelation with only a few days to fill it. But God is so good, and He filled it with an event at a church near Cornerstone Bible Institute where our daughters, Claudia and Abby, attend. So we were able to see them and celebrate Abby’s birthday on Sept. 19th. I was also blessed with the opportunity to teach an additional two hour Genesis class at the Institute. As it states in Proverbs, God truly guides our stays....
