Al Heitkamp's Story
Al Heitkamp was challenged by Walter Lang in 1968 to remember that "Adam and Eve were real people." At the time, Al was a chemist, was teaching Sunday School and about to become Sunday School superintendent at his church. His interest was captured and realized that although he was a scientist, he had received no background in this area. In 1976, he awoke in the middle of the night aware of the Lord speaking to him, saying to sell his extra business and reduce his church responsibilities in order to devote more time to the cause of creation. Al became involved with TCCSA at the time of the 1976 Conference and later joined the TCCSA Board and also the Bible Science Board. At the 1983 Conference, he gave a talk on the Cretaceous Iridium layer, showing that Noah's Flood was the explanation that best fit the evidence. This concept was carried further by others in the 1992 Conference. He continues to speak and serve on the Board.
A project that Al, as a chemist, was involved in was prevention of malaria. Here is an article, "Malaria Project" he shared with TCCSA's Dave Johnson in January 2022.

"Distant Starlight and Biblical Creation"
University of Northwestern St. Paul, 3003 North Snelling, Roseville Minnesota
Totino Fine Arts Center
Room F2106
We see stars and galaxies that are so far away, it seems their light would need millions or even billions of years for the light to reach us. Many people have used this to challenge the idea that the heavens and Earth were created merely thousands of years ago. This talk shows how this seemingly straightforward challenge relies on multiple assumptions being true-and at least some of them are false. Furthermore, it is not Biblical Creation which is disproved by distant starlight. It turns out that the Big Bang model has a fatal 'light travel time' problem of its own. The vastness of the cosmos does not disprove the Bible--instead, it supports the glory of our Creator.
