February issue – special focus on evolution

FEBRUARY 12 marks the 200th anniversary of the birth of Charles Darwin, and the media will be flooded with tributes to the scientist. But his theory has been used by atheists to undermine faith in God. In a special feature on evolution, Good News assesses the current state of evolutionary theory, and finds that only a Creator can explain the origin of life on earth.

Also in this issue:

- UK's most married man finally finds real love with 8th wife, after finding love of God
- Valentine’s Day competition: win ‘21st Century Marriage’ DVD and book
- Man Utd manager Alex Ferguson goes public on his Christian faith
- How a near death experience transformed the life of Judi Pring
- Why Plymouth striker Rory Fallon plays for God's glory, not his own
- Teenage delinquent changed by Jesus becomes a church pastor

Plus... 25 fantastic nature DVDs to win!

The producer of NPN videos, Mark Haville, has kindly offered an amazing 25 copies of his excellent new DVD, Life's Story 2, for Good News readers to win in our February issue. Life’s Story 2 is a beautifully filmed, 2 hours 23 minutes programme exploring the intricate designs of nature’s vast array of creatures, and explaining why such design defies evolutionary explanations. Many unusual, rare and endangered species are featured, including animal behaviour never filmed before. It takes complex scientific issues and makes them simple enough for even children (10 years upwards) to understand.

In this fact-filled DVD you will learn about the navigation techniques and defence mechanisms of marine life, the complex behaviour of birds, the differences between apes, monkeys and humans, ‘ape-men’ hoaxes and how some of the largest land mammals feed and digest their food.

Each DVD normally retails at £12.95.

Church outreach on ‘Darwin Day’
 

Some Christians believe God used evolution to create life – others believe evolution is both scientifically and biblically untenable.

Mark Haville, producer of NPN Videos, is firmly in the latter camp. He says, “Did you know that Darwin’s idea of evolution is still the number one stumbling block in the western world hindering people from putting their trust in Jesus?  

“In 2009 universities, colleges and other groups around the UK will be hosting events to celebrate the birth of Charles Darwin and the publication of his book The Origin Of The Species. The 200th anniversary of his birth, 12 February, is being promoted as ‘Darwin Day.’ 

“Life Days are being organised nationally to challenge the theory-tale of evolution and to provide biblical answers to many who are dissatisfied with Darwin’s unscientific speculations.  

“The most widely used evangelistic documentary in the UK, Life’s Story, and an accompanying searcher’s guide have been mass produced at low cost to allow both church groups and individual Christians to make free distribution of one of the most challenging Gospel programmes available today.”
