The Beginnings of World History $5.50
The opening chapters of Genesis are doubted by many and openly attacked by some. Yet there are notable evidences that support this part of the Bible. A Study Guide has been prepared in contemporary Power Point format that can be used by an individual, or a small group gathered around a computer, focusing the attention of users on the reality of Genesis 1-11 as history.

In a self-paced manner, the users of this Study Guide will consider such questions as: Why support faith with evidence? What do we mean by Intelligent Design and irreducible complexity? Why is Genesis relevant?

Nine particular events of Genesis 1-11 are highlighted as Main Events. For each of them several evidences are supplied and the Study Guide concludes with a list of available resources (books & DVDs) if materials are required for further study.

Two versions of the Study Guide are available: One with evidence summaries only (91 frames), the other with expanded chapters of evidences (150 frames). Both versions are supplied on the same CD.

These PowerPoint sequences have been compiled from a variety of materials, including some of his own photography, by semi-retired teacher of Science & Technology, Ron F. Suter, B.Sc., M.A., T.P.T.C.

Grade levels Wherever grade levels are mentioned you may need to adjust for your State. In some states there is a compulsory year of preparation BEFORE grade 1. In other States this prep year is called Grade 1. Thus grade 2 in Qld, NT, SA, & WA is equivalent to grade 1 in NSW, ACT, Vic, Tas, NZ and USA. However, levels should be seen as approximate guides only - a bit like estimating clothing sizes from children's ages.
