In 1992, Billy Graham held a crusade in Portland, Oregon, at
Civic Stadium (now Providence Park) which drew a large
crowd.

The event, which included special guests like Johnny Cash
and June Carter Cash, was well-attended, with the main
stadium event drawing 39,500 people and an additional
12,500 watching on a large screen at a local high school.

The crusade also generated significant media attention and
raised millions of dollars in donations for the spread of the
gospel.   
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
   

July 10, 1925: In Dayton, Tennessee, the so-called Scopes
Monkey Trial began with John Thomas Scopes, a young
high school science teacher, accused of teaching evolution
in violation of the Butler Act, a Tennessee state law.

The law, passed in March, made it a misdemeanor punishable
by fine to “teach any theory that denies the story of the Divine
Creation of man as taught in the Bible, and to teach instead
that man has descended from a lower order of animals.”

The trial became a national spectacle, with prominent figures
like Clarence Darrow defending Scopes and William Jennings
Bryan assisting the prosecution.

(FOX NEWS) – A group of international researchers say they’re
getting closer and closer to identifying the possible remains of
Noah’s Ark – and new test results are promising.

The focus of the research, the Durupinar site in eastern Turkey,
was first identified in the 1950s.

For decades, it’s been speculated that the boat-shaped site
once harbored Noah’s Ark, but no definitive proof has emerged.

Now, an organization called Noah’s Ark Scans believes that
recent soil samples point toward the site once housing "ancient
wood."

Researchers collected soil samples from the site last September
and analyzed them through this winter. The results "show
significantly higher levels of organic matter and potassium
compared to surrounding areas."

According to a recent statement from the organization,
"[The results] provide compelling evidence of a unique,
potentially man-made structure beneath the surface, distinct
from the surrounding mudflow."

The statement added, "these findings suggest the presence of
decayed wood or other organic materials, consistent with a large,
ancient structure preserved within the mudflow."
