About the talk:
Borrowing an expression from foremost historian of science Martin Rudwick regarding debates of the 17th Century, this is a defense of the Biblical Flood as the greatest event in all geologic history. One might expect strata of vast extent, marine fossils in mid-continent positions, fossilization, and worldwide flood traditions if such an event took place – and we do! Geology itself testifies that God is serious about judging sin – here, the gospel makes sense.
Bill is a professionally trained geologist with a heart for outdoor education. As a newborn Christian 40 years ago, he left a career in petroleum exploration to obtain a Masters in Science at the Institute for Creation Research where he was trained under the best creation scientists of the time, including Drs. Steve Austin, Henry Morris, and many others. After working for 16 years at ICR where he assisted in Grand Canyon research and radioisotope dating, he has been involved in education ever since, including one year of missionary service in China. Since coming to Christ in 1981 the conviction has never left him that the evolution story (and its necessary long ages) are aimed to destroy faith in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It is the truthfulness of the Gospel that motivates him in teaching, especially at the foundational level where creation and science meet.
