  • Did everything just happen?
  • Why has ‘intelligent design’ caused such opposition?
  • Why don’t more people get to hear all the evidence for design?
  • What about so-called ‘bad designs’?
  • Who is the designer and why does it matter?

A national tour of national importance—one of the largest speaking undertakings in our ministry’s history and you can be a part of it.

Each two–night event, with two CMI speakers, includes a public question and answer session. All are welcome.

Get involved—a chance for your church to engage the community on the powerful topic of design in creation. Promotional literature will be available.

Program
Arrive 6.45pm for 7.00pm sharp start. Break between the two sessions. Finishes approx. 9.30pm.
Please note: the Gold Coast meetings will start at 7.30pm & finish approx. 10.00pm.

Night 1

Night 2

Session 1: The design argument: what it’s about, and why it matters.

Session 2: Examples of incredible design in living things.

Session 1: Dismantling the arguments against design: selection, ‘bad design’.

An extensive range of creation resources will be available at all meetings.
