Dr Mark Harwood
creation Ministries international (CMI)

Join us on Sunday 19th July at 10am as we dive into our Fundamentals Series, with Dr Mark Harwood as our Guest Speaker.

Dr Mark is part of Creation Ministries International (CMI), an organisation who supports the worldwide church in proclaiming the truth of the Bible and the Gospel. They provide real-world answers to the most-asked questions on the vital topic of origins (Genesis).

ABOUT Dr Mark Harwood

Mark Harwood completed his tertiary education at the University of Sydney where he received B.Sc., B.E. (Hons) and Ph.D. degrees. His postgraduate studies were focused on radiotelescopes and computer techniques for antenna design and measurement.

Mark played a key role in the development of Australia’s national satellite system. He has now retired from the aerospace industry where he was General Manager, Strategy and Planning for the Optus satellite business.

During his university years, Mark was something of a ‘closet Christian’ because he could not understand the basis of his faith. He assumed that God must have created through the processes of evolution but that idea provided no meaningful basis for Christ’s sacrificial death on the cross. But when he was confronted on the historical truth of the creation account in Genesis he realised that those opening chapters were actually true. Then God’s plan of redemption finally made sense.

Today, he speaks passionately, both in Australia and internationally, about the scientific credibility and the Gospel relevance of the Genesis account of creation.
