Multimedia Presentation

Cedar Park Church, Bothell WA
Description:
Evolutionists argue that humans have descended from ape-like ancestors, thereby reducing humanity to the status of a primate animal. Darwin's seminal theory led inexorably to this conclusion. However, the Bible clearly states that we were created distinct from the animals, and “in the image of God”.
This presentation examines the various “ape-men” used to support human evolution; including Neanderthals, Homo erectus, and Australopithecines. Were there really ape-men or is the infamous missing-link still missing?

Chris
Ashcraft is a Christian educator employed as high school science
teacher at Cedar Park Christian Schools and Adjunct Professor at NW
University. Formerly, Chris was a
biology research technician specialized in plant tissue culture and
genetic transformation technology. He was employed at the Cotton Fiber Production Laboratory at Texas Tech
University and the Plant
Transformation Facility at Oklahoma State University, and lastly was the Plant Transformation Specialist for EDEN Bioscience
in Bothell Washington.
He obtained a Bachelor of Science in biology from Wayland Baptist
University in 1989, a Master of Science in biology from Texas Tech
University in 1996, a Master of Education from the University of
Washington in 2008, and a Master is Teaching Math and Science from
Seattle Pacific University in 2012.
Chris moved from research science into the teaching profession to
serve God in Christian education. His decision was motivated by the
impact that secular science is having on people of faith. Today, close
to 50% of Christian students lose their belief in God while attending
secular schools. This tendency could be lessened if the Church was
better equipped to defend the authority of Biblical teachings (1 Peter
3:15). To be prepared for these challenges, it is important that
Churches provide regular educational programs on creation and other
Bible apologetics.
