In 2008, Bennett was invited to speak at a United Nations and World Council of Churches-sponsored international conference in Montreal, Canada, with the conference theme of "Reconnecting Heaven and Earth, in Spirit, Space and the Human Psyche". This group has also created a new, ecumenical religious order called "The Order of the Transfiguration", an "ecumenical order with links to the United Nations and the World Council of Churches", which studies "apparitions, post-mortem contacts with dead saints, invocations of saints and angels", amongst other things, which "is dedicated as a 'mid-wife' of a New Humanity in a New World Order". Bennett was (somehow, miraculously!) the ONLY evangelical Christian invited to present at this conference. He (somehow, miraculously!) escaped with his life, and will be repeating this lecture at our conference.
June 29 Update: Drop by Best Western to see the public debut of Dr. Future's brand-new "Future Mobile" - an embodiment of prophecy on wheels!

Mike’s main research interests are Israelite religion (especially Israel’s divine council), contextualizing biblical theology with Israelite and ancient Near Eastern religion, biblical languages, ancient Semitic languages, textual criticism, comparative philology, and Second Temple period Jewish literature. His dissertation was entitled, "The Divine Council in Late Canonical and Non-Canonical Second Temple Jewish Literature.”  The dissertation sought to discern the ancient Israelite background to Judaism's "Two Powers in Heaven" teaching. Mike's other academic interests include paranormal and occult religions and western esotericism.  He is particularly interested in how these worldviews and traditions have historically drawn on biblical and ancient Near Eastern material and in turn influenced biblical interpretation on the popular level.  He has become well known through numerous radio appearances for his critiques of "parababble" and inside-the-box religious thinking. He is best known to popular audiences for his paranormal thriller, "The Facade", which intertwines many of his interests.

A popular guest on Coast to Coast AM, Art Bell says "Mike is uniquely qualified to discuss the relationship between ancient texts and ufology..."

began his ministry in the UFO field spurred by the mass-suicide of the Heaven's Gate UFO cult. He is best known as author of "Come Sail Away : UFO Phenomenon & The Bible" and - after moving to Roswell in 1999 - as co-founder (with Joe Jordan and Chris Ward) of Alien Resistance, an organization dedicated to offering Biblical perspectives on the UFO / Abduction phenomena. Malone has organized several successful conferences in Roswell which affirm the more credible aspects of UFO and abduction research, and investigates such reports from an evangelical perspective. In 2007 he served as conference co-ordinator for The City of Roswell's 60th Anniversary.

Malone lives in Roswell New Mexico with his wife, and together they continue the work. This is his sixth UFO themed conference to produce, introducing attendees to the idea that the phenomena is spiritual in nature. This 2009 event is produced without "opposing" or "secular" views, and targeted primarily for the benefit of equipping the church for ministry to those whose belief systems are being drawn to New Age and/or UFO-themed religious views.

Mrs. Malone (not pictured here) is the author of "A Modern Guide to Demons and Fallen Angels", which includes an overview of the powers and abilities these entities exhibit. She does volunteer work at Alien Resistance, including the Alien Resistance Christian Lending Library, and has appeared on The Cursed Net, Area 33, and Live From Roswell internet radio shows.

  is the author of the fictional "Nephilim Trilogy" (published by Zondervan) and the non-fiction "Politics, Prophecy and The Supernatural." He holds an honorary doctorate (D. Min.) from Pacific International University for his research on Nephilim.

Marzulli has researched the topic of UFO cults in depth, which became the basis for his the Nephilim trilogy (Zondervan). His research has convinced him that serious spiritual deception is going on, and many people are falling under its spell. He wrote the trilogy to help people understand the spiritual dimensions of the whole UFO phenomenon, which he sees as part of the end times prophesied in The Book of Revelation, The Book of Daniel, and elsewhere in the Bible. He emphasizes that "The present political landscape is in direct correlation to supernatural events, that happened, in some cases, millennia ago."

A talented musician and composer who has recorded a number of albums,  L.A. Marzulli lives in Malibu with his wife and two daughters.
