Read MoreGod is at work even when we Crash!
I looked in the rear-view mirror and saw a Semi-truck barreling down on us…no more than 30 feet from us. I knew it was going to be bad. And a second later, I was looking all around trying to survey what just happened. I was still in control of the car, still going straight forward. I looked back in the rearview mirror and my 4-year old son was still sitting in the third row – just stunned – seemingly not in pain. The two younger girls in the second row had awoken from their...
Read More“Scientific evidence does not have to be interpreted. Science is science.”
The above was a response (“Scientific evidence does not have to be interpreted. Science is science.”) that I received while in a debate with an evolutionist. This is how I rejoined in the debate: Crime Scene Scientists, Paleontologists, and Archaeologists along with probably every other scientist is faced with the challenges of how to best interpret the evidence. If you were a crime scene investigator, you would come into a house and observe a dead body laying on the...
Read MoreWhen 23 is greater than 100
Recently, my family and I were blessed to be able to help lead the Yellowstone Creation Tour and we had a blast! We had beautiful weather, we saw a lot of animals, and had great fellowship praising God and enjoying His creation together. Now, here is a confession…I am a nerd. I get excited about the furthering education about all of the history, the facts and the creation evidence as seen at Yellowstone and it is just an amazing experience to be able to go...
Read MoreHow Old Are You…Really??
Before I begin, I have a quick prayer request. AOI speakers have many camps and VBS’ coming up, so please pray for us and for those who will be attending! Now back to the story… When I am doing a VBS or a camp, I like to start out the week with the following scenario: I tell the students that I am an alien. I have just arrived and I am on a scientific mission to study the human beings on Earth. Let the investigation begin! So I ask one of the campers –...

I want to tell you about a powerful, reflective experience I had recently. We were blessed to be participants in teaching the students from Jackson Hole Bible College (www.jhbc.edu – we highly recommend their 1-year program) for a 2 week trip to the Southwest, including the Grand Canyon (which was just one among many significant geologic sites we visited!). It was a great trip to be a part of. (Aimee and I are actually on staff with AOI because of that trip 7 years ago!!)...
Read MoreWatching Movies…Easy. Making Movies…
I love watching movies… I love watching documentaries. I think I tend to learn better visually and with audio. Lately, in fact, as a team, we at AOI have been realizing that video appears to be the way that most people think and learn…or at least prefer to be entertained. So we are realizing that we want to do a better job of capturing our information in video form. And that has been the challenge for me as of lately. Watching videos is great! Making videos should be no big...
Read MoreFor Such A Time As This…
I have two children. I have waited my whole life to be a mom, and being one is proving to be filled with even more joy, intense love, heartache and yearning over my kids, than anyone ever said it would be. But these are uncertain times. I don’t know what the future holds. I pause and wonder: how many faithful parents in the history of time have peered into the future without a shadow of anxious yearning over their children, wishing they could offer a safer, purer world for...
Read MoreTo Be Remembered is To Live On!
Recently, I was going for a walk and I saw this phrase on a commemoration bench for a person that had passed away. To Be Remembered is to Live On. At first glance, I didn’t think too much about it and then I realized…wow…how sad that is. That is the only thing I know about that person or family, but if that is their hope…it isn’t hope! It reminded me of what hope really is! I think we are all honored when someone says an encouraging word to us that they were thinking...
Read MoreReflecting on AOI’s Yellowstone Tour 2016!
I recently helped out with AOI’s Yellowstone Creation Tour and it was a fantastic weekend. I was awed by the unique and incredible natural features of Yellowstone National Park and refreshed by the time to get away and enjoy God’s beautiful creation. I think one of the things that I was most blessed by from this tour was the group comradery and encouragement. We were able to come together as believers of God and His Creation and share together in the beauty of His...
Read MoreOpening Eyes Blinded by our Culture!
Recently, I was blessed with the opportunity to teach a group of young students touring the US from France! I know hardly anything about France, but now I guess I know a little more. It was interesting to watch these students as they started off shy and unsure of what I was sharing with them. I was told at one point too, that as much as evolutionary thought has infiltrated the US, in France it has gone even farther. There is really no debate at all there, because Evolution...
