Joseph Kezele, M.D., Dares to Ask:
Does God Exist? And Why Don’t People Listen?

Dr. Joseph Kezele, President of AzOSA, addresses humanity’s most important question by examining the two competing worldviews: undirected materialist evolution vs. Bible-based purposeful existence. Every American needs to know the ideas underlying modern visions of education, economics, morality, ethics, and even politics. Dr. Kezele will offer Biblical and non-Biblical evidence for a Creator-God, and contrast that with the “science” of atheism.

Presentations take place on January 5 and January 12 at Black Mountain Baptist Church in Cave Creek at 6:30 p.m. Click HERE for information.

An emergency medicine specialist, Dr. Kezele has recently joined the faculty at Southwestern College in Phoenix. Dr. Kezele has been traveling all over North America and Eastern Europe presenting origin science concepts for several years. Enjoy this excellent opportunity to hear Dr. Kezele and speak with him about your toughest questions. Please visit AzOSA Events for more details.

God or Dirt? New Book Designed For
Busy Readers and Homeschoolers

Six years of labor by Sal Giardina has produced a colorful, easy-reading but hard-hitting book that asks and answers the question of origins: did Earth’s living creatures begin with God’s creation, or with the naturalistic processes of inert matter? Entitled God or Dirt?, this new book addresses the key points with information and illustrations fashioned for modern readers with limited time, but also constructed to support homeschooling families as well. Read sample pages and learn more by visiting www.GodorDirt.com. This may be the book you’ve been looking for!

Salvo Magazine Article: Gandalf on Mars

What do secret decoder rings and computer modems have in common? Both are irrefutable examples of intelligent design. Salvo Magazine, a print and Internet magazine of worldview ideas serving Gen X and Gen Y, has published “Gandalf on Mars: What Bleeping Codes Say About Intelligent Design” in its Winter 2010 edition. Written by AzOSA Board Member Richard Stevens, the article explains how codes, such as those used by modems, cannot possibly arise by undirected natural processes. Biological cells and DNA itself use codes and modems to operate – they must have been intelligently designed. Visit http://www.salvomag.com/ to read the Gandalf article this month.
