Can You Host a Pastor For One Night in September?

Pastors from southern Arizona desiring to experience the Pastor and Church Leaders Grand Canyon Bus Tour could really benefit from getting to the Phoenix area the night before their early morning departure. Is there room in your inn?  If you can help with a spare bedroom for a pastor and possibly a spouse, on the evening of Monday, September 22, please let us know by clicking here. Help our cause and make some new friends!

Phoenix: Mon. May 19 – The Word, Light, and Life – Jesus And His Creation.

Norm Crawford, veteran speaker and aerospace engineer, presents Christ in Creation and throughout Scripture to reveal how the author and sustainer of life imparted that life into His Creation and continues to do so. Norm draws from John 1 to identify three qualities of Christ that connect science and the Bible as seen in Creation, the world around us, and in our new life in Him. (2 Cor 5:17).

Contrast the Bible’s promises with their antitheses: decay and death. The enemies of life will one day be removed. No superstition here – see these truths come alive through the eyes of an engineer firmly grounded in reality. Don’t miss Norm’s enlightening message that resonates with the foundation of the Gospel.
 
Tempe: Tue. May 20 – The Word, Light, and Life – Jesus And His Creation. Norm Crawford’s presentation is reprised live at this central location.

Payson: Tue. May 20 – Grand Canyon – Evidence for Genesis.

Which is it?  Thousands of years old – or – millions of years old? You’ll be amazed at the facts delivered by Jim Clarke, the AzOSA Resident Geologist, about Arizona’s most famous place: the Grand Canyon. Jim has amassed the geologic evidence from the Grand Canyon and other recent geologic events such as Mount Saint Helens, all showing the Grand Canyon was formed by a catastrophic event. Which event?  Noah’s Flood. Have questions about that conclusion?  Come see the evidence and ask Jim yourself!

Time’s Running Out – 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 options are being discussed: (1) an actual class of motivated students, participating either in person or possibly via PC audio or videoconferencing; (2) a self-study plan with periodic personal or in-person meetings with Dr. Brown for in depth discussion and Q&A.

Click here to see the full text of the previous (8th) edition of In the Beginning. To ask questions or participate, please contact Larry Kisner via this email. If enough people show interest, one or both programs can roll out in 2014.

Unsure of your science background? There will be tutors to help.  Studying Dr. Brown’s book and getting this education can change your life. Contact us now and discuss the options.
