Intelligently Designed

Gary Winkler will be our guest speaker for our October 14th meeting.

Talk Description: To solve some of our toughest problems, scientists and engineers are copying designs from God’s creation. This has become a scientific field known as Biomimetics (or Biomimicry). The talk shows some fascinating examples of this, plus provides overviews of the Intelligent Design scientific movement, Natural Theology, and what the Bible says on the subject. 


About our Speaker:

Gary is an engineer with 35 years experience and has received multiple patents. After being confronted in 2004 with evidence that human evolution stories were dubious, he began researching all the lines of “evidence for evolution”. His resulting conclusion is that science thoroughly supports the Biblical model and it soundly rejects the evolutionary model. He now works to share this information with others, to help them defend their faith, and to know that the Bible is true from beginning to end..

September Event:  Bees

September Event: Bees

The Hive and the Honeybee

John Coffman will be our guest speaker for our September 9th meeting.

Talk Description: The world often gets excited about the honeybee. Everywhere you look, people are saying, “Save the Bees!” Why is this? It’s because they see how important and amazing these creatures are, and they think that the world will end without them! We know that the world isn’t going to end because all the bees died, but we should look at how wonderful they are and worship God for it. Lorenzo Langstroth, the father of modern beekeeping, wrote, “The Creator may be seen in all the works of his hands; but in few more directly than in the wise economy of the Honey-Bee.” Join us as we take a look at this most wonderful piece of God’s creation!


About our Speaker:
John Coffman is a beekeeper from Antonia, Missouri. He learned beekeeping from his grandfather, Claude, who began beekeeping in the late 1940s. The craft has been an important part of the Coffman family for over 70 years. When the Lord saved John in 2018, his greatest struggle with believing the Bible was what it said about creation. The Lord provided help in many ways to help with this struggle, but two of the most important were: (1) The Missouri Association for Creation and (2) watching the honeybees and seeing how beautiful and complex they are. He has been studying at Brookes Bible College for three years, pursuing a Bachelor's Degree in Theology, and he is the Administrative Services Coordinator for the college.

The Grand Experiment (part 2 of 2)

The Grand Experiment - Ape-man frauds, part 2 of 2

Dr. Werner will be our guest speaker for our July 8th and August 12th meetings.

He will be delineating the findings in the 3rd and 4th volumes of his Grand Experiment book
series in which he tackles the compelling question: Did humans evolve from apes?

It will be a rare insight into the world of anthropology, the major ape-man fossils, and the
scientists who found them. Dr. Werner has documented more than 150 instances of what he has determined to be frauds committed by scientists working in the field of human evolution.

Be sure to join us for this interesting and educational event!

Address:

301 Droste Rd.

St. Charles, MO 63301

📺 LIVESTREAM FROM HERITAGE BIBLE CHURCH WEBSITE: https://www.facebook.com/p/Heritage-Bible-Church-100091301532920/
 


About our Speaker:

Dr Carl Werner is the Executive Producer of Evolution: The Grand Experiment video series and
author of Evolution: The Grand Experiment book series and curriculum. He received his
undergraduate degree in Biology, with distinction, at the University of Missouri, graduating
summa cum laude. He received his doctorate degree in Medicine at the age of 23.

In his sophomore year of college, Dr. Carl Werner was challenged by a fellow classmate with
these words: “I bet you can’t prove evolution.” Disturbed by his classmate’s somewhat poignant criticisms of the theory, Dr. Werner (a biology major at the time) pondered this conversation for some time. From this point, he began his quest for an answer.

Over the next nearly three decades, 1997-present, Dr. Werner then traveled 298,000 miles to
museums and dig sites around the globe, photographing thousands of original fossils and the
actual fossil layers where they were found.

Understanding the Geologic Column & the Fossil Record

Understanding the Geologic Column & the Fossil Record

Understanding the Geologic Column & the Fossil Record

Beneath the Earth's surface lies a record of events, creatures, and worlds that seem both familiar and strangely alien to us. The secular scientific consensus claims that the rocks and fossils of the Earth are evidence for evolution, long ages, and the inaccuracy of the Biblical record. Creationists argue that, rightly-interpreted, the geology of the Earth supports the Bible's history. In this approachable, 2-part presentation, Zachary Klein defines and demystifies the "Geologic Column" and the "Fossil Record", and shows how these twin pillars of modern geology can be interpreted within a Biblical creationist paradigm - with some intriguing surprises along the way!

What Did God Create on Day 2?

What Did God Create on Day 2?

What Did God Creation on Day 2?

What Did God Creation on Day 2?

On the second day of Creation Week, God created the “firmament”, or expanse, dividing the primordial water into two domains; the waters above the expanse, and the waters below. The waters below the expanse become planet Earth. But what about the waters above the expanse? What is the expanse, anyway? This presentation will provide an overview of some common interpretations of the Day 2 account, and also will summarize recent young-earth creationist research on this topic.

5 Canards of Evolution - by Marv Schaefer

5 Canards of Evolution

According to Dictionary.com, a canard is false or baseless, usually derogatory story, report or rumor. Evolutionists routinely state as fact things that are questionable at best and wildly speculative at worst.
 
In this presentation we'll look at five of their favorite canards and do our best to shine the light of truth on them.

Monthly Meeting: The Light Travel Time Problem

The Light Travel Time Problem:  
     Distant Starlight and the Age of the Universe

If the universe is less than ten thousand years old, how can we see starlight from galaxies that are millions of light-years away? This question has been the focus of creation astronomy for decades. In this presentation, we will overview some of the major proposed solutions to the light-travel time problem, and see how this research has shaped the field of creation astronomy. Scientific progress is often made through competition among multiple theories, each attempting to explain apparent inconsistencies in the available evidence. We’ll see how creation scientists have used this approach to answer the apparent inconsistency between the data of Scripture and the data of astronomy.

She is a co-organizer of the Clearly Seen Creation Conferences, an event series that aims to help people see the glory of God as revealed in the things He has made.

MAC Monthly Meeting

Special Presentation
Let There Be Life
Presentation by Dr. Joel Brown

During this session, we will see which worldview offers the best explanation for the origin of life. It will start with an exploration of life (biology), with no worldview attached. We will then look at how the Evolutionary worldview describes the origin of life and see just how insufficient (and unscientific) these explanations are. Along the way, we will see incredible evidence showing that the origin of life can only be explained by a Designer.
