(1) Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed

Starting this Friday, you have the opportunity to see how one-sided our academic institutions have become in the Ben Stein documentary, Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed. Ben Stein's Expelled has struck a cultural nerve as it exposes a modern day witch hunt in which scientists, educators, and students are being persecuted because they dare to question Darwinism and argue that life may be the result of "intelligent design." Even though this is not a Christian film, Ben takes on the world's leading atheists and their global agenda, and the hilarious but sobering results make us realize, "It's time to get involved!" See the movie, bring your friends, and tell others. Click here to find a theater near you that is showing the film.



(2) Truth Project Training in Gilbert

Are you part of a small group? Looking for your next study? Consider leading your small group through The Truth Project. Join us on Saturday, April 26 for a local training event at Sun Valley Community Church, Gilbert, Arizona from 10:00 AM until 3:30 PM. Facilitated by The Truth Project staff from Focus on the Family, the day will focus on training and vision components necessary to support the worldview content. Please note that Dr. Del Tackett will not be teaching at this Truth Project event. To register, go to http://www. thetruthproject.org/events.



(3) Legislative Victory

This has been a relatively slow week at the Legislature for CAP-supported bills. This week, however, the Senate passed unanimously HB 2129, which prohibits Internet age misrepresentation for the purposes of committing a sex crime against a minor. The bill will go back to the House for final approval and then on to the Governor's desk. Stay tuned - next week should see significant action on CAP-supported bills. Please keep legislators and CAP's team in your prayers!
