Dear Reader,

Roger Oakland is an author, lecturer, and the founder of Understand the Times, International. He has written several books and is featured in numerous documentary DVD films. Over the past 35 years, he has lectured in over 70 countries. He is also the founder of the Bryce Homes Program International, a mission's program that ministers physically and spiritually to widows and children in several countries. His biography Let There Be Light chronicles his years as an evolutionist to becoming a creationist and then a believer in Jesus Christ. You can visit his ministry website at www.understandthetimes.org.

FROM EVOLUTIONIST TO CREATIONIST TO BELIEVER IN CHRIST

Roger Oakland heads to university with the morals and values of his Christian parents intact. When he enters school, he believes in God as a Creator, but soon exchanges this for Darwinian evolution. After graduation, he begins teaching biology (with an emphasis on evolution) at the same university. Challenged one day by a young Christian student, Roger mocks the whole idea of Creation and God.

Through a series of painful circumstances, including the death of a baby son, he begins searching for answers to life—until one day he has a dramatic experience when hit with the realization that God created everything.

From the wheat fields of Saskatchewan to the classrooms of evolutionary humanism to a fallen USSR to poverty-stricken villages in Myanmar, Roger shares his message of a Creator to over 130 countries. This apologetics biography will inspire you to give all for the sake of Christ and His Gospel.
