The Dragon Slayer Fair - Spring 2009

webmaster@dinopastor.com — Wed, 07 Jan 2009 19:33:00 GMT

We have had an awesome time pointing people to Jesus at the Dinosaur Encounter. Although it says "Creation Learning Center" on the sign, lots of non-believers stop in. Responses vary from "Why haven't I been allowed to see this evidence!", to one lady who refused to listen and went and sat in the car. We need to be able to handle larger groups. Most visitors come in groups made by appointment. Unfortunately, our teaching area can only sit 35. This spring, Lord willing, we will break ground on the Dragon Slayer Fair. When finished, we will be able to handle larger numbers of people. Half the group will go outside and half will stay in for teaching. Then they will switch.

At the Dragon Slayer Fair, kids will learn what it means to be a Dragon Slayer. The knight's code - the ten commandments will be emphasized. Kids will also learn what it means to put on the whole armor of God. After a teaching time, kids will go to the fair where they can shoot ping pong balls from crossbows at dragons. They will be able to defend a castle from dragons. We will only build as the Lord provides the funds. Lord willing, we will start to work on a pavilion this spring. If you want to help us build the Dragon Slayer Fair, please contact us. We need both labor and materials.

A Look Back At 2008

webmaster@dinopastor.com — Wed, 07 Jan 2009 19:14:00 GMT

Just two weeks ago we celebrated the most significant birthday ever - the day our Creator gave us a Savior. The Birth of Jesus forever altered our spiritual condition and our eternity. Unfortunately, the world has been gearing up to celebrate a different birthday. Every museum, every natural history site, every school system and the media will promote Darwin's birthday. Some have multi-million dollar campaigns. February 2009 will mark Darwin's 200th Birthday and 150 years since he wrote his book. Unfortunately, evolution will continue to lead hundred of thousands away from their Creator and Savior. How will we respond to this unprecedented onslaught?

This year I have stayed in over 80 homes and have done outreach events in over 120 venues. I have seen several very positive changes taking place this year. To begin with, I am conducting more and more multiple church outreach events in schools and auditoriums. We have had up to twelve churches working together to reach their community.

I am also starting to meet more and more scientists and doctors affected by the ministry. Recently, I had a medical doctor approach me after one of my outreaches. He said that he had heard me two years ago for the first time. He said that for two whole years something I said has bugged him constantly. I had described the air sack in a dinosaur egg that the dinosaur draws it's oxygen from. He said that for two years he has struggled with how that airsack could have evolved outside the body. His conclusion - after two years - the dinosaur egg could not have evolved because you can't evolve things outside your body. It is amazing how God uses small things like that to bring people closer to himself.

A third change I am beginning to see is that the ministry is starting to get more media attention. The media attention has also led to more slams on the internet. I have been described as a "complete moron" because I actually believe the Bible. I have received several very hostile "email" attacks. The enemy is active and is still roaring like a lion. Praise God, when we speak, we speak in His power! In a letter published in a Philadelphia newspaper, the president of one a local atheist organizaztion in Philadelphia wrote his letter in response to an article he saw in a newspaper. Although has never heard me, he likened the teaching of creationism to children to the 1800's "flat Earth" movement and sees religion as being designed to keep people in ignorance and psychological bondage. Please pray for him. He needs Jesus.

Spring 2008 Ministry Update

February was "Darwin Month" at the NY State Museum in Albany. They were promoting a program called the Myth of Creationism. It is amazing that the concept of God as Creator can be so blatantly attacked at a state sponsored museum.
