http://www.focuspress.org For many individuals, the field of geology remains a hurdle in harmonizing a young earth with the scientific data. The formation of multiple strata layers and deep canyons was previously considered a slow process over long periods of time. The May 18, 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens changed all of that. Rather than basing geology around long-age "assumptions," scientists discovered a living laboratory that provided some startling information. We invite you to enter the blast zone with Dr. Brad Harrub and his son Will as they discover the Truth regarding these geological processes and the age of the earth.
Join Dr. Brad Harrub and Will Harrub on location in the blast zone of Mount St. Helens as they journey together to discover the age of the earth.
Brad Harrub holds an earned B.S. degree in biology from Kentucky Wesleyan College, and an earned doctorate degree in anatomy and neurobiology from the College of Medicine at the University of Tennessee in Memphis. He is a professional apologist and traveles the world presenting seminars on Christian Evidences.
Description:
Geology and the assumption of an ancient earth have been used as a wedge to cast doubt on God's Word for over 200 years. Many believe Mt. St. Helens was God's wake-up call to the compromising Christian community. This highly visual presentation shows the result of the earth reshaping forces which were occurring during and subsequent to the world wide flood.
From the rapid formation of vast rock layers to dinosaurs; from the origin of the ice age to coal formation; this talk shows how science supports a straightforward Biblical perspective of earth history.
Bruce Malone gave his life to Christ over 20 years ago, as the Lord miraculously preserved him through a close call with death. Since that time Bruce has looked for a deeper purpose in life and realized that rejection of Biblical truth, justified by belief in evolution, is the acid which is eating away at the moral foundation of our culture.
Bruce spent 27 years working as a research leader for the Dow Chemical Corporation, has a degree chemical engineering, and is responsible for key innovations which have resulted in 18 patents. But his passion is sharing the relevance and evidence for creation, so he retired early to become full time Director of Search for the Truth Ministries (http://www.searchforthetruth.net/). Bruce has spoken extensively at Colleges and Charities in 12 countries. Since 2008 Bruce has spoken over 300 times to more than 20,000 people and over 30,000 books have been distributed to students and prisoners.
Bruce brings science alive through stories and demonstrations, showing that Biblical creation is the most rational explanation for the world around us. The purpose of both his books and lectures is to help the non-scientific layman understand the importance of creation while motivating and equipping them to share these truths.
Bruce resides in Midland, MI with his wife Robin, and they have four children who are all actively serving the Lord. Click here to contact Bruce to arrange a speaking engagement at your church or organization.

Creation Today - Feb 9, 2012 | Kyle Justice from Compel Media joins Eric Hovind and Paul Taylor to discuss recent research from Mount St. Helens in Washington. They cover how the catastrophe at Mount St. Helens provides clues to what it must have been like after Noah's Flood.
Dr. Steven A. Austin is a field research geologist with a Ph.D. from Penn State University in sedimentary geology. He is “Senior Research Scientist” with Institute for Creation Research in Dallas, Texas. He has performed geologic research on six of the seven continents of the world. His research adventures have taken him by helicopter into the crater of Mount St. Helens volcano, by bush plane onto glaciers in the high mountains of Alaska, by raft through the entire Grand Canyon, on horseback into the high Sierra, by elevator into the world’s deepest coal mines, by SCUBA onto the Great Barrier Reef of Australia, by rail into the backcountry of Korea, by foot onto barren plateaus of southern Argentina, and by four-wheel drive into remote desert areas of Israel, Jordan and Saudi Arabia. He is the author of three books, three videos, one computer software package, and more than thirty technical geology papers.
Dr. Austin’s field research within Grand Canyon includes over 400 nights camped out below the Canyon’s rim. He has launched 22 raft trips within Grand Canyon. He has explored very remote areas of Grand Canyon by mule, helicopter and ATV. His book “Grand Canyon: Monument to Catastrophe” and his DVD “Grand Canyon: Monument to the Flood” summarize his investigations. He has over ten technical papers on Grand Canyon. Subjects of his technical publications on Grand Canyon include lava dams, breached dams, fossils, limestones, sandstones, basalts, diabase sills and radioisotope dating. He is widely known for his discovery of the regionally extensive mass-kill and burial bed within the Redwall Limestone about 2000 feet below the Canyon’s rim.
Current research Mass-kill event and rapid burial of nautiloid fossils in a limestone layer within the Grand Canyon.
Mega-flood deposits within the Santa Cruz River valley of southern Argentina.
Frozen cones of spruce trees within a deeply buried peat layer on the shore of the Arctic Ocean in extreme northern Canada.
Gigantic slurry-flows in southern Alaska that were launched along superfaults and that produced widespread deposits composed of enormous boulders.

A Thousand Years in a Day: The Mt. St. Helens Catastrophe By Dr. G. Thomas Sharp of the Creation Truth Foundation
"Did you know that God can and has used natural processes in a supernatural way to impact the surface of the earth with thousands of years of change in only ONE day? What do you suppose happened when “all of the fountains of the great deep opened” at the beginning of the Flood of Noah? When you look at the canyons, mountains, rock layers and fossils of the earth, how do you explain them? The Bible has sound, reasonable explanations for these marvelous observations. Did you know that in 1980 an eleven-year process was begun at Mt. St. Helens that epitomized on a small scale the action and results of the Great Genesis Flood…that it was proven that God could take a catastrophe and do the geological work of thousands, even millions, of years in ONE day? In this program, G. Dr. Sharp will be your guide through the seconds, minutes and days the eye-opening action of catastrophic earth slides, tidal-like waves, mud flows and other residual effects of the history-making Mt. St. Helens Catastrophe. You will see, with your own eyes, the ability of catastrophic action do the work of thousands of years…IN JUST ONE DAY!"
