Science points to a Creator but scientists refuse to listen.

Is our universe just a happy accident? Former atheist and Harvard physics instructor Dr. Michael Guillén used to think so. But the deeper science looks, the more our cosmos reveals the unmistakable signature of a Master Artist. The numerical "coincidences" making life possible aren't random at all.

If gravity or the charge of an electron were slightly different, we'd live in a lifeless ghost town. How do we explain this stunning fine-tuning without a creator? Modern physics is leaving atheism with a burning question it can't easily answer.

Join us this week as we wrap up this miniseries.

🎡🦕 Look UP: God’s World Points to God’s Word

This Sunday at Grace Bible Believers in Chardon, BJ will wrap up our 3‑week miniseries “Look In, Look Around, Look UP!”

Two weeks ago in “Look In,” BJ tackled the fear factor of outreach — the hesitations that keep believers from stepping into ministry with confidence and joy.

Last week in “Look Around,” we explored how God’s Creation Speaks, a perfect lead‑in as we prepare to serve at the Great Geauga County Fair.

This week, in “Look UP,” we’ll look at dinosaurs — yes, dinosaurs — and discover how a biblical worldview helps us understand God’s world through the lens of God’s Word. We’ll see how assumptions shape interpretation, how evidence points upward, and how creation ultimately directs our eyes to Christ, the Author and Finisher of our faith.

Join us as BJ helps us “Look UP” and see how even the biggest creatures point to an even bigger God.

We are following these updates from the Durupinar Formation in Turkey with great interest.

BREAKING: Top U.S. Defense Scientist’s Radar Torpedoes “Just a Giant Rock” Claim at Durupinar Noah’s Ark Site

Skeptics love to dismiss the Durupınar site as “just a giant rock” and claim we lack the credentials to study it.

So we brought in Dr. Khosrow Bakhtar, who has 40 years developing detection tech for the U.S. Air Force, Navy, NORAD, 25+ DoD projects, 200+ technical papers, PhD in rock mechanics from top institutions.

He deployed his BakhtarRadar (the same system that mapped cartel tunnels under the border) across the 515-ft boat-shaped formation.

Preliminary results:

It is not a homogeneous solid rock mass.

Strong subsurface anomalies. Layering.

No clear bedrock boundary where a shallow rock core should appear.

The “just a rock” narrative just took a direct hit from one of the most qualified subsurface experts in the field.

“We believe the Durupınar Formation is the remains of Noah’s Ark, and that is exactly why we want to put it through the strongest scientific testing we can,” said Andrew Jones, founder of Noah’s Ark Scans

Data is still processing. Core drilling is next. The science is only getting started. Help support our core drilling efforts in the first comment below. Thank you to everyone for their support as we continue this incredible journey. Read the full press release below.

🎡🌿 Look Around: God’s Creation Speaks

This Sunday at Grace Bible Believers in Chardon, BJ will continue our 3‑week miniseries "Look In, Look Around, Look UP!"

Last week BJ tackled the fear factor of outreach in his message “Look In,” exploring the hesitations that keep believers from stepping into ministry with confidence and joy.

This week, in “Look Around,” we'll discover how God’s Creation Speaks, a perfect theme as we prepare to serve at the Great Geauga County Fair, surrounded by the beauty, order, and testimony of God’s handiwork.

Join us as BJ connects God’s world to God’s Word — and points us to the One who gives true life.
