Design, Deluge & Dilemma Conference
2025-10-12 09:30 - 14:00
Design, Deluge & Dilemma Conference presented by Dr. Jonathan Sarfati. This presentation demonstrates how the Gospel message is rooted in the book of Genesis and provides evidence to support the reliability of the Bible’s record of origins.

Attendance is free and all are welcome. Starting at 9:30am Dr. Sarfati will be our guest speaker during the worship service. Beginning at 11:00am the Design, Deluge & Dilemma Conference will start with a break for lunch. Please click HERE to sign up for the 11:00am Conference and reserve your FREE LUNCH. Creation resources will be available before and after the services.

Dr. Sarfati is regarded as one of the world’s leading Christian apologists when it comes to Bible/science related issues and the book of Genesis. His esteemed body of work includes his Refuting series of books, which are not only some of the biggest-selling creationist books ever, but are regarded as keystone books in the defense of a six-day, straightforward understanding of Genesis—both scientifically and theologically. His latest and most important book is The Genesis Account, a thorough 800-page theological and scientific commentary on Genesis 1–11.
