Where Did You Come From: God or Goo? is the theme of a five part series beginning February 4th at Grace Community Church.  We will look into the Bible to discover the truths about:

* Steven Austin, Ph.D. Geology (ICR)

He has a B.S. from the University of Washington, an M.S. from San Jose State University and a Ph.D. from the Pennsylvania State University, all in geology. His professional memberships include the Geological Society of America, the American Association of Petroleum Geologists, the Society for Sedimentary Geology, the International Association of Sedimentologists. He has had professional, peer-reviewed projects at Mt. St. Helens and within the Grand Canyon. He is currently conducting research on mass killing of nautiloids within the Redwall limestone of the Grand Canyon, radioisotopes of Grand Canyon rocks, and earthquake destruction of archaeological sites in the Kingdom of Jordan. In 1999, Dr. Austin published research in the prestigious, peer-reviewed journal International Geology Review.

** John R. Baumgardner, Ph.D. Geophysics and Space Physics (Adjunct faculty for ICR)

He has a B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Texas Tech University, an M.S. in Electrical Engineering from Princeton University and an M.S. and Ph.D. in Geophysics and Space Physics from UCLA. Dr. Baumgardner has served as staff scientist in the Fluid Dynamics Group of the Theoretical Division at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico since 1984. He is famous for his development of the TERRA program, a 3-D spherical finite element model for the earth's mantle. Beginning in 1995 Dr. Baumgardner assisted the German Weather Service in adapting methods from the TERRA code as the basis for a new operational global weather forecast model known as GME that is now used in Germany and ten other countries.
