First Half: Radio personality and author Kevin Matthews will discuss how his life changed after he found a broken statue of The Virgin Mary. Matthews spoke to more than 10 million listeners in the Midwest weekly before doctors in 2008 told him he might die of cancer. In the winter of 2011, on just a normal day, God led him to a filthy dumpster, where he found the statue that would become the subject of two bestselling books, a movie release, and even a blessing from Pope Leo.
Second Half: Author and lecturer Geoffrey Simmons will discuss various aspects of intelligent design and the debate surrounding Darwinian evolution. Simmons challenges the widespread acceptance of Darwin's theory. He argues that there is no evidence one organism can change into another, or that one species can change into another species.
