ABOUT THE SPEAKER:

Jerry Jaeger grew up on a farm near Cambridge, Idaho and also attended the public school there.  He had a tremendous appetite for knowledge and studied all of the science and math courses offered.  He also persuaded a science teacher to teach him some advanced courses on the side.  Jerry chose a liberal arts college that offered a strong physics department, but it wasn't long before he realized that although you can take the boy off the farm, you can't always take the farm out of the boy.  Jerry transferred to the University of Idaho and earned a BS in Agriculture in 1962.  Between his Sophomore and Junior years in college he married Carol.  Upon graduation he and Carol returned to the farm where Jerry had grown up and they began operating a dairy.

At the age of 28, Jerry trusted Jesus Christ as his personal Savior, however the evolutionary teaching that permeated his education, made it difficult for him to trust the Bible entirely.  This problem was solved shortly after Jerry started reading some Creation Science books and articles.  He learned that the historical evidence found in all creation is better explained by a Biblical Creation worldview rather than by an evolutionary worldview. Jerry continued reading a great deal of creation science literature, which provided compelling evidence that the Bible (God's revelation to man) and His creation are in complete harmony.  Real Truth is found only in God's Word and the real truth about the cosmos can be discovered only by examining it from a Biblical worldview. That is why the creation message is so important!!

Jerry and Carol no longer operate a dairy, but they continue to live and work on the farm near Cambridge where he was brought up as a boy. They have raised five children who have trusted Christ as their Savior. On September 3, 2001, Jerry and Carol celebrated their 41st wedding anniversary!  Jerry is active at the Cambridge Bible Church as an Elder, adult Sunday School teacher and he helps with the AWANA children's program and the annual Rodeo Bible Camp. He is on the Board of Shiloh Bible Camp and is a member of Gideon's International. Jerry also serves on the Board of Directors for Foundations In Genesis of Idaho-Oregon.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM:

The Mt. Saint Helens eruption is probably the most significant geologic event that has happened in our lifetime. It was a catastrophe that produced, in a very short period of time, a great deal of geologic evidence that had previously been interpreted as requiring long periods of time to accomplish. In fact, as a result of the evidence from Mt. Saint Helens, much of the so-called proof of the old earth uniformitarian dogma was literally "blown away"!

Dr. Steve Austin of Answers In Genesis ministry has put together an excellent group of photographic slides about the volcano's eruption and its aftermath. Jerry will present these slides and also share some related research accomplished during the years since the eruption. We believe that this presentation will strengthen your ability to defend the Biblical position that . . .

IT'S A YOUNG WORLD AFTER ALL!

GIVE "THANKS" WITH A JOYFUL HEART FOR JESUS CHRIST, OUR SAVIOR AND LORD!
