Creation scientist to talk about Mount St. Helens on Sunday

Published 4:39 pm Friday, October 31, 2008

Creation scientist Lloyd Anderson will speak about “Lessons Learned

from Mount St. Helens” at the Baker City Christian Church on Sunday

from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.

The church is at 675 Highway 7, and the public is invited to this special presentation.

The Rev. Anderson was born in Portland, and attended Multnomah Bible

College from 1954 to 1956. He graduated from Wheaton College in 1959

and Dallas Theological Seminary in 1966. He pastored Bible churches in

Port Angeles, Pouslbo and Lynnwood, all in Washington.

Along with his wife Doris, Anderson founded the Mount St. Helens Creation Information Center in 1998.

His presentation is built on Dr. Steven Austin’s Slide Set for Educators, a 58-minute video “Mount St. Helens: Explosive Evidence for Catastrophe,” and other writings by creation investigators, personal interviews and study of secular scientific studies.

Anderson has presented this talk more than 700 times since 1998.

According to a press release about the presentation, Anderson’s purpose is “to uphold the trustworthiness of Scripture from Genesis to Revelation that says the earth is just thousands of years old, not the billions of evolutionary thought.”

Also, the audience will learn how volcanoes work and the history of the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens.

A freewill offering will be taken at the presentation for Anderson.
