David D'Armond - BIO & WORKSHOPS
Speaker: David D'Armondwww.davescreationresources.com Professional Geologist, and former evolutionist, Dave D'Armond is a frequent speaker on a wide variety of Creation science topics. For the last 15 years he has also conducted hands-on science workshops for K-6, 7-12, and adults in conjunction with the “Good Science” curriculum from the Institute for Creation Research. Last year, during a reorganization of its assets, ICR transferred complete ownership of the "Good Science" curriculum to Dave, making him the primary source of this acclaimed hands-on science curriculum. He is also a member of the Midwest Creation Fellowship speaker’s bureau. Additionally, he recently completed the Answers in Genesis Creation College II.
Workshops
NAME OF PRESENTATON SUMMARY
Creation, Dinosaurs & the Ark Friday
Was it God’s spoken command, or was it the Big Bang? Genesis reveals the historical account of the beginning of the universe by the only eyewitness, while the Big Bang theory continues to fall apart more and more. Here is the record of the Creation (even where dinosaurs fit), that answers questions about the first marriage, the Fall, Cain’s wife, ages of the Patriarchs, the building of the Ark. Was the Ark big enough for all the animals? How did eight people take care of all of them? What happened to the dinosaurs? See how the facts of science fit the Genesis account.
The Flood, the Tower & the Ice Age Saturday
The violence of the Flood was almost beyond our wildest imaginations, with tsunamis, earthquakes, volcanoes (caused by the “breaking up of the fountains of the great deep”), storm surges, tidal sweeps, and cavitation - all of which destroyed the living things on land, except those aboard the incredibly stable Ark. See how science facts confirm the Bible accounts of the Tower of Babel, the Dispersion, the Ice Age, cavemen, woolly mammoths, and migrations (animal and man).
Teaching Science under the Attributes of God Friday
Teaching hands-on science should reflect God’s attributes - which are “clearly seen” in “the things that are made” (Romans 1:20). This gives us a powerful tool to “know God” as a result of studying His Creation. Hands-on science is easy, fun, and produces the highest levels of learning when done in the way suggested by Scripture. In this workshop, we test the concepts by actually doing hands-on experiments to see how to develop creative, critical thinking in your child. And you do not have to be a science whiz to successfully teach science. Find out how in this workshop.
The Bible Said it First Friday
In the oldest books of the Bible, many scientific truths have been written thousands of years before modern science made the discoveries of these facts. Find out how the Scriptures first revealed scientific facts about Hydrology, Geology, Astronomy, Meteorology, Biology, Physics, and more. Principles such as the sphericity of the earth, the weight of air, water cycle, allusions to DNA, thunderstorms, etc., are clearly revealed in ancient Bible passages. This is a fun and inspiring presentation for the entire family.
Amazing Complexity & Design in Life Thursday
Incredible rotary motors in living things, discovered by scientists trying to prove evolution, clearly show the Master Designer at work. (One rotary motor is only as big as a single molecule! And yet, all life depends upon this wondrous molecule.) See God’s designs in bats, woodpeckers, whales, etc., why evolutionists cannot figure out how life began without God, and some incredible mysteries about DNA - your genetic blueprint.
The Code of Life ~ For Teens Thursday & Saturday
An exciting hands-on session where a 3D segment of the DNA model is assembled. This segment contains the complete code for the cell to produce one protein molecule. The vast complexity of living systems is illustrated, along with the unique characteristics of each one of us, and the incredible amount of information in the DNA code. Concludes with a discussion from Psalm 139 which anticipates by thousands of years our modern scientific discoveries of the vast amount of coded information that resides in the DNA molecule. Can accommodate 75 students at a time, adults welcome as observational seating is available.
