January 2014 – Origin Science (Not Snow) Blankets AZ!

Uniquely this January starts 2014 with presentations all around Arizona designed for people:

(2) who don’t yet know a lot about those subjects but want to become informed and able to discern. 

Attend – tell others – bring a friend.  

In this Newsletter:  

● Cochise County Seminar – Sierra Vista

 Maricopa County Events  

January 20 – 7:00 PM – Phoenix: Microscopic Man, Astronomical God. Electron microscopes and powerful telescopes deliver extraordinary views of Creation that reveal the Truth of God and His Word. Using incredible visuals, Russ Miller takes you from inside a human cell to the outer limits of the universe, a journey that will forever assure you that our Creator is too big to be contained by Nature. 

January 21 – 7:00 PM – Tempe: Intelligent Design, Biblical Creation and Darwinism. “Every Christian believes in Intelligent Design, but not everyone who believes in Intelligent Design is a Christian.” Russ Miller, founder of Creation, Evolution and Science Ministries, explains the similarities and differences between the Darwinism, Creationism, and Intelligent Design. Russ especially focuses on how the Creation model makes observable and testable predictions, while Darwinism fails to meet its own key criteria.

Cochise County Seminar 

January 18 – 9:00 AM to 12:30 PM – Sierra Vista: Cochise County Winter Seminar. In one convenient three-part session, Russ Miller delivers the essentials every educated American, and certainly every Christian, should know about: (1) the scientific weaknesses of Darwinism; (2) the Grand Canyon’s physical evidence for a young Earth; and (3) the foundations of the Christian heritage that established the USA.  

50 Facts Against Darwinism in the Textbooks. This message caused a secular university to launch an accredited class attacking Russ and Biblical Creation. Russ takes examples from high school and college texts to expose frauds which have undermined the faith of billions of people. Russ stands up for real science & education which have been undermined by false teachings. No one with an open mind will ever believe in Darwinism after seeing this message. 

If the Foundations be Destroyed. Russ shows the USA was founded by predominantly Christian men and women on predominantly Christian principles. He also shows that our Christian heritage is being erased while revealing that Biblical creation is foundational to both the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to the freedoms that Americans enjoy. 

Three-Day Formation of the Grand Canyon. Although the Grand Canyon is often cited as evidence for Old Earth beliefs, the evidence found there points much more strongly toward a Young Earth. Russ, who leads bus and rafting trips to Grand Canyon, captures the chasm for God’s glory, revealing undeniable evidences of the Canyon’s rapid formation. 

January 19 – 8:00 AM – Sierra Vista: Microscopic Man, Astronomical God. Electron microscopes and powerful telescopes deliver extraordinary views of Creation that reveal the Truth of God and His Word. Using incredible visuals, Russ Miller takes you from inside a human cell to the outer limits of the universe, a journey that will forever assure you that our Creator is too big to be contained by Nature.

 10 AM – An Old Earth or a Global Flood Old Earth beliefs provide the cornerstone for Darwinism and are based on a belief earth’s strata layers formed over long ages of time. Russ exposes the unreliability of radiometric dating; reveals how a Global Flood destroys Old Earth beliefs; and shows how the ice age, continental drift, fossils, coal layers and more fit perfectly in a world that has endured a global flood.

11 AM – Six-Day Formation of the Grand Canyon. Although the Grand Canyon is often cited as evidence for Old Earth beliefs, the evidence found there points much more strongly toward a Young Earth. Russ, who leads bus and rafting trips to Grand Canyon, captures the chasm for God’s glory, revealing undeniable evidences of the Canyon’s rapid formation. 

January 25 4 PMCreation Youth Rally – Join Russ Miller for an informative fascinating afternoon that will blow your mind with scientific truth about where we came from that you will not hear in school.

Resolution in 2014?  

Maybe you missed your church’s volunteer work projects in construction, baking, child caring, or event hosting? No problem – channel a few hours each month to multiply the outreach of the Truth to mankind. Without you, AzOSA and its many activities and outreaches just cannot happen. Ready to multiply your effectiveness? Consider helping as: 

Church Survey Assistant – using simple direct mail techniques, help this ongoing original research project obtain and organize data to understand origin science’s challenges in some churches and how to overcome them. Contact Dr. Joseph Kezele at Dr. Kezele’s contact portal

Bookstore Assistant – Straightforward but vital to our mission. Help maintain the stock for the AzOSA stores, using the systems already in place. AzOSA can thrive only by delivering the materials people need to make the scientific case for Creation. You can directly contribute to everyone’s success. Contact Dr. Joseph Kezele at Dr. Kezele’s contact portal or Vern Hartz (bookstore@azosa.org).

You Can Do This – Become the Origin Scientist You Want to Be 

Imagine – plan – execute – triumph! That’s how big life moves occur. Imagine sitting comfortably in your home, partaking in an immense education in origin science. Your text would be In the Beginning: Compelling Evidence for Creation and the Flood (9th ed. 2014). Your professor would be the book’s author, Walter Brown, Ph.D., who earned his doctorate in mechanical engineering from MIT and is a National Science Foundation Fellow. 

Take the plunge and get this result: a logical, scientific, serious, no-nonsense grasp of creation science concepts covering the life sciences, Earth sciences, physical sciences, and astronomical sciences. Two special value-adds in studying with Dr. Brown: (1) a comprehensive understanding of the competing scientific theories about Noah’s Flood, one of which Dr. Brown personally pioneered; and (2) many clear and concrete explanations showing directly the connections between scientific discoveries and Bible teachings. 

True to his strong academic credentials and commitment to truth, Dr. Brown has provided in his book copious citations to secular science books and journal articles so that no scientific notion is exaggerated or “taken on faith.” All materials are professionally produced with full color photos and illustrations, and the final book is slated for print publication and free online access. 

Two options are being discussed for a 2014 educational initiative. One is an actual class of motivated students, participating either in person or possibly via PC audio or videoconferencing. The other is a self-study plan with periodic personal or in-person meetings with Dr. Brown for in depth discussion and Q&A. 

To see the full text of the previous (8th) edition of In the Beginning, visit the website at http://www.creationscience.com/onlinebook/ . Amazing work, isn’t it? 

If you would like to participate in either learning format, please contact Larry Kisner via this email. Let us know your interest so that we can compile a list of people. If enough people show interest, one or both programs can roll out in 2014. It is imperative that we hear from interested people, however; neither program will take place unless certain minimum numbers of students sign up. 

Feeling a little unsure of your science learning talents? No problem – there will be tutors to help you get used to unfamiliar terms and concepts. Many people have changed their lives, and become monumentally better witnesses for the Creator, after studying Dr. Brown’s book and getting this education. Now is your chance! Contact us now and discuss the options.
