First Service (8:28am)

Why Should Anyone Believe the Bible? v2.0

Why should anyone believe the Bible? If you think you're about to hear about a bunch of evidences or arguments for the truth of Scripture, you're in for quite a surprise....because it's not about evidences, and it's not about arguments. Basically, it's not about you at all.

Second Service (10:17am)

Who is God?

It has been said that nearly every single theological heresy begins with a misconception of who God is. God appears in the fourth word of the Bible abruptly, without introduction and just starts creating things left, right, and center. Who is this “God” and who put Him in charge? In this talk, we’ll examine seven of God’s non-communicable attributes–attributes that He reserves for Himself–and learn why God has to have each attribute. It’s the most fun you’re likely to have studying the nature of God.

Dissecting “The Math of the Great Flood”

Years ago, I ran into a YouTube video that uses mathematics to prove that Noah’s flood could not have happened, and it made me ask "What if everything I've believed about the flood is wrong?" We'll take a look at this video and see why there's nothing to be afraid of. This is a fun introduction to rubber-meets-the-road apologetics that demonstrates how to think critically, how to spot logical fallacies, and the dangers of not looking up scriptures that others quote.

A Game Plan for Dialoguing with Mormon Missionaries

When a pair of bright-eyed lads bedecked with black slacks, white shirts, ties, and black name tags ring your doorbell, what should you do? Should you just ignore them until they go away? Is it okay to let them in, or does the Bible prohibit that? If you do talk to them, what should you say? I'll answer these questions and more, and lay out a simple game plan to keep your time with Mormon missionaries productive and God-honoring.

This will be an online presentation over Zoom. Instructions for joining the group will be posted on the CFS Facebook page: Creation Fellowship Santee

The Problems with Distant Starlight

Many Christian laymen and apologists alike stumble over the what has been dubbed “the distant starlight problem,” citing it as a key obstacle to their acceptance of a young (i.e. ~6,000 year) creation.

In this presentation, I'll take this difficult topic by the horns and demonstrate to non-technical audiences how the distant starlight problem is a double-edged sword that cuts both ways–against young- and old-earth creationists alike; it is not the proverbial nail in the young-earth coffin that many think it is.
