John Baumgardner earned a doctorate in geophysics for the express purpose of addressing the tectonics issues of the Genesis Flood at a professional level.  For his Ph.D. thesis he developed a 3D mantle dynamics program known as Terra.  As research scientist for 20 years at Los Alamos National Laboratory he used computer modeling to explore and develop the concept of catastrophic plate tectonics as a primary mechanism behind the Flood.

 

 

Dr Humphreys retired from Sandia Labs in 2001 to work full-time for the Institute for Creation Research (ICR) where he was appointed an Associate Professor of Physics. In this time, he operated mainly from his home office in Albuquerque, NM, USA, while still continuing to write for Journal of Creation (formerly TJ) and assisting several other creationist organisations with questions and information concerning physics, astronomy and cosmology.

In August 2008 he resigned from ICR and now works as an independent researcher.

Dr Humphreys has been a longtime member of the Creation Research Society and is on its Board of Directors.

 

Lifeline Global Ministries was founded because of a desire for restoration. More than a decade ago, they were invited into the Louisiana State Prison – commonly known as Angola. The inmates there were hungry for Biblical truth and were looking for tools to grow in their faith. From that initial visit grew what is now known as Lifeline Global.

Lifeline Global Ministries works to restore and equip incarcerated men and women to become godly parents so that the generational cycle of incarceration can be broken. 

They work to teach and shepherd incarcerated women and men into becoming the godly parents they are meant to be – that they can be through the transforming power of the Gospel. They work with prisons and penitentiaries, churches and communities, volunteer groups and individuals to equip, resource, and transform lives.

Mike Royals joins us to share the vision of the ministry.

With every wheelchair and Bible delivered, every retreat and respite event held, and every church mobilized to integrate and honor people with disabilities, Joni and Friends follows the call of Jesus found in Luke 14:

“Go out quickly into the streets and alleys of the town and bring in the poor, the crippled, the blind, and the lame.… Go out to the roads and country lanes and compel them to come in, so that my house will be full” (Luke 14:21, 23, NIV).

Love life is uniting and mobilizing the church to create a culture of love and life that will result in an end to abortion and the orphan crisis.

They follow the 4 step journey found in Nehemiah chapters 1-3 to lead the Church of Christ to repentance and obedience in order to “rebuild the walls”in our cities. This is practically played out when a church Adopts a Week and walks through the 4 steps of Hear, Pray, Go, and Connect.

“Adoption Weeks” take place Sunday through Saturday. On Sunday, the pastor gives a message on Life and gives a call to action for his people to pray and fast on Wednesday, and then to participate in a peaceful prayer walk at their local abortion clinic on Saturday.  The last element of the prayer walk gives participants an opportunity to say “yes” to ongoing ministry around the issue of abortion.

Ethel Maharg of Love Life joins us for a ministry update.
