At Monterrey Christian School, we are committed to providing our students with a Christ-centered education that not only nurtures their faith but also sharpens their minds through academic excellence. This week, our community was blessed with a remarkable opportunity to witness that vision come to life through the visit of Dave and Mary Jo Nutting, founders of the Alpha and Omega Institute and internationally recognized speakers and researchers in the field of Creation Science and great defenders of Creationism.
As a biologist and geologist, respectively, Dave and Mary Jo Nutting brought a wealth of scientific knowledge and decades of experience defending the biblical worldview. Their presentations to our students and staff were deeply engaging, intellectually rigorous, and spiritually enriching. The Nuttings led us through a wide range of scientific and historical evidence supporting the reliability of the Bible, particularly in the areas of:
- 🔬 Intelligent Design – Exploring the intricate complexity and purposeful design found in living organisms, which points decisively to an Intelligent Creator rather than random processes.
- 🌍 Geological Evidence of the Global Flood – Examining large-scale geological formations, fossil records, and sedimentary layers that strongly support the biblical account of a worldwide flood described in Genesis.
- 🏺 Archaeological Discoveries – Presenting key findings from archaeological sites that confirm the historical accuracy of the Scriptures, including civilizations, events, and people mentioned throughout the Bible.
The central message of their visit was clear and compelling: true science does not contradict the Bible—it confirms it. Contrary to the often-perpetuated myth of a conflict between faith and science, the Nuttings demonstrated how observable, testable scientific evidence aligns beautifully with the narrative of Scripture. Their presentations were not only informative but also a source of deep encouragement for all of us who seek to stand firm in our faith in an increasingly skeptical world.
This experience has had a profound impact on our school community. Students were encouraged to ask questions, think critically, and explore the natural world through a biblical lens. Teachers were equipped with resources and renewed confidence to integrate the truths of God’s Word with academic content in the sciences and humanities. This aligns directly with our mission to develop young people who love the Lord with all their heart, soul, mind, and strength.
We are grateful to the Alpha and Omega Institute for their ministry, and to Dave and Mary Jo Nutting for their faithful service in equipping the next generation to defend their faith with both conviction and reason. We encourage our entire school community to visit www.discovercreation.org to access their extensive library of resources, including articles, videos, and study materials that continue to explore the powerful harmony between biblical truth and scientific discovery.
At Monterrey Christian School, we believe that God is the Author of both Scripture and nature. As such, every legitimate scientific discovery ultimately leads us closer to understanding His divine nature and the wonders of His creation. This past week was a vivid reminder that our faith is not blind—it is deeply rooted in both revelation and reason.
We give thanks to God for this unforgettable experience and pray that it will bear fruit in the hearts and minds of our students for years to come.
