Jonathan Whitcomb - While viewing an expedition video by Paul Nation, he noticed a high level of credibility in the testimonies of eyewitnesses of what is called the ropen of Umboi Island, Papua New Guinea. He then became involved in living-pterosaur investigations, exploring part of Umboi Island in 2004. Although he failed to see any ropen, he interviewed native eyewitnesses. In 2006, Whitcomb wrote the book Searching for Ropens. In it he criticizes the standard model of universal and ancient pterosaur extinction and criticizes the General Theory of Evolution.

In late 2006, Whitcomb interviewed Paul Nation, who had just returned from another expedition on the mainland of Papua New Guinea. Whitcomb made a digital copy of Nation's video footage of two indavalights. This video was later analyzed by the physicist Cliff Paiva; the lights were found to be genuine images and not the result of videotaping meteors, car headlights, or camp fires. Whitcomb then included the findings in the second edition of his book in 2007.

After news of the 2004 expeditions became publicized online, reports from American eyewitnesses began to accumulate. Whitcomb compiled and analyzed data from reports received from early-2005 to early-2009. He then wrote the nonfiction book Live Pterosaurs in America , which was published on July 25, 2009.

Whitcomb's scientific paper "Reports of Living Pterosaurs in the Southwest Pacific" was published in Creation Research Society Quarterly, Volume 45, Number 3 (Winter 2009).

On April 2, 2017, Whitcomb published the nonfiction book Modern Pterosaurs, which explains the evidence for the authenticity of the photograph that is now called Ptp. In the first few months of 2017, he and the physicist Clifford Paiva discovered and pubicized a number of points of evidence that the animal shown in the photo was a real animal and that the photo itself was probably taken before about the year 1870. Those two scientists propose that the animal shown is at least related to a Pteranodon, although they acknowledge some differences in details. They stand by their proclamation that the animal was a modern pterosaur.

In 2003, he wrote a shorter work on a mathematical model showing the impracticality of macroevolution: An Evolutionary Boundary.

Preston was born in Fayetteville, Arkansas in 1949, a 1975 graduate of the Northside School of Preaching in Harrison, Arkansas. Preston has been in public speaking since the age of 13 and was voted among the Jaycees' "Outstanding Young Men of America," 1980. Preston's preaching ministry spanned nearly four decades in two different cities; Shawnee, Oklahoma and Ardmore, Oklahoma. Preston worked for seven years helping to produce a television program for a Christian magazine which received national recognition in the magazine, "Christianity Today."

In June 2010, Preston received an honorary Doctorate degree from Vision International University of Ramona, California, in recognition of his "outstanding accomplishments in ministry and publishing." Vision International has 140,000 students worldwide. Dr. Stan DeKoven stated at the graduation ceremony, attended by an estimated 1,000 people, that Vision seldom awards honorary Doctorate degrees, and never more than one per year.

Preston served as minister for the Ardmore Church of Christ, (now The Family of God church) for 16 years from 1992 to 2008. He resigned to devote himself full-time to research, writing, seminars and debates through the organization he founded, PRI. PRI also sponsors an annual conference (Preterist Pilgrim Weekend – PPW) at the Ardmore Convention Center with attendees who have come from all 50 states, and numerous international locations over the past several years, which has grown in attendance nearly every year. What began as a simple seminar with only a few people, has now grown into a staple "must come" event for many since the inception of the PPW.
