Comments about this program
Principal, VA Our school was privileged to have the Matzko’s present their science program to our students this year. The presentation held the student’s attention and had the students engaged the entire time, which is not an easy task in an age of social media, video games, and movies. Students from elementary school to high school enjoyed the presentation and talked about the concepts presented for many days after the visit. It was a highlight of our year and a fantastic way to link science to scripture!
Teacher, Tacoma, Washington – My students talked about your presentation non-stop, and I heard from parents that they heard a running commentary at home as well. I used it as an opportunity to reinforce that these things that seem like magic work because God ordained natural laws that dictate that things work consistently and according to His purpose.
Teacher, Tigard, Oregon – Thank you for packing so much in my science class in such a short time. You reviewed concepts we have covered and whet appetites for concepts to come and aroused interest in learning more about science and using it to serve and glorify our Creator.
Homeschool Mom, Tigard, Oregon –As a homeschooling family, this was a great way to supplement our homeschool curriculum. Many experiments are not feasible for our family, so it was wonderful to have them “see” science in action. My chemistry student is commenting on how he understands different concepts better because of the Matzko lectures.
CHAPEL
Suitable for shorter middle and high school chapels (30-35 minutes)
Lightning – Few things strike fear in the heart of man more than thunder and lightning, but when you understand how it works, you can only stand in awe of God’s power and providential planning. Uses 5-6 science demonstrations and PowerPoint.
Moon – A Signpost from God – Where did the moon come from? Why did God create the moon? What’s the moon up there for? Would we miss the moon if it were gone? No demonstrations but PowerPoint is used.
Scientific Foreknowledge – Scientific foreknowledge is scientific information revealed in the Bible long before mankind discovered or verified it through extra-Biblical means. Subjects include the Sun having a fixed place in the heavens, lightning channels, lightning causing rain, the Earth suspended in empty space, entropy, and atmospheric pressure. Includes seven science demonstrations as time allows.
