July: AzOSA Lights Up Arizona – And More

Come in from the summer sizzle to refresh your knowledge of Science, Worldview, and the Bible. Psalm 23 captures the moment referring to the “still waters” of truth and courage. Spread the word by visiting and participating at the AzOSA Facebook page, too.

July 8 – 9:00 AM – Cave Creek: Only One Race. Racism, inherent in evolutionary thinking, has resulted in widespread misery and destruction of life. Sandy Flint, BS, Biology, sheds light on the lack of scientific bases for racism or human evolution. Ms. Flint conveys the biblical truth about the existence of only one race, the Human race, and about what really constitutes a “mixed” marriage.

July 8 – 9:30 AM – Scottsdale: Natural Disasters: Why Do They Happen? Natural disasters have the capacity of taking many lives, destroying property, and causing extreme suffering. No single events, other than wars, can cause so much destruction. Why do natural disasters occur? Why would a loving God allow pain, death and suffering associated with natural disasters? These are the questions asked by Christians and skeptics alike. The answer is found in the Bible and particularly on the Book of Genesis. Jim Clarke, BS, Geology, MS, Hydrological Engineering, explores the Biblical history and science of natural disasters and will provide stimulating insights to explain why they occur.

July 15 – 9:30 AM – Scottsdale: Is Genesis Relevant in America Today? Foundational to America’s beginning was Scripture, but over time atheistic evolutionist doctrine replaced belief in the God of the Bible as Creator. Education in public and private schools has become the battleground — can a student maintain a Biblical worldview when the Bible is banished and secularism reigns? Using examples including the analysis of the word “day” in Genesis, and a few simple facts about the biological cell, Dr. Kezele delivers immediately useful tools for students and everyone to use as he also shows many reasons why Genesis truly remains relevant in America today.

July 16 – 7:00 PM – Phoenix: The Search for the God Particle. This research ranks among the white hot topics of modern particle physics — some of the latest research is being published this very month. Larry Kisner (BS. Mathematics, BS, MS, Physics, Adjunct Professor of Physics, Arizona Christian University) grounds us in this information so that we’ll be ready for the next PBS special proclaiming scientific proof that God is not needed.  Mr. Kisner will answer:

● Do recent high energy experiments with the Large Hadron Collider bring us closer to finding the “God Particle”?

● The Higgs-Boson – What is it and why would its discovery eliminate the need for intelligent design?

● What is the precarious balancing act of high energy physics and String Theory?

● Can these experiments really recreate the Big Bang?

● Faith vs. fact for both evolutionists and creationists – which is the wisest choice?

You’ll understand this new material better than most of your skeptic friends!

July 17 – 7:00 PM – Tempe: The Search for the God Particle. If you miss the Phoenix presentation, don’t miss this one. See the full description of Physics Professor Larry Kisner’s cutting edge presentation above.

July 22 – 9:30 AM – Scottsdale: If The Foundations Be Destroyed. See and hear Russ Miller, dynamic speaker and tireless educator, at one of Scottsdale’s best known churches. Mr. Miller shows how the conflict of worldviews persists, what a secularist victory would portend, and how the church has an unprecedented opportunity to prevail as a source of truth.

July 29 – 9:30 AM – Scottsdale: Scripture and Carbon-14 Say the Earth Is Young! Hear Dr. Kezele present what Genesis and the New Testament have to say about the age of the Earth —  and — see how Carbon-14 in diamonds and coal support the Genesis account by demonstrating a young Earth in real experiments.

July 29 – 9:30 AM – Scottsdale: Hawaiian Islands, Land of Creation and Catastrophe. The Hawaiian Islands have the tallest mountain in the world as measured from its base, sun-baked deserts, the wettest places in the world, and evidence of tsunamis causing great destruction. Learn from AzOSA Geologist Jim Carke how these phenomena are best explained by the creation/catastrophe biblical model from Genesis.
