Some say that the Bible doesn't say how it should be interpreted. So can everyone determine how to interpret it for themselves? Is there a universal way to interpret the Bible? If there is, what is it?

Charles Darwin is often presented as a brilliant, iconic figure who single-handedly changed the scientific landscape. His picture is on the British ten pound note, and he is looked up to by many as a great scientist. But research over the last 100 years reveals a different story.

A persistent evolutionary argument is the concept of vestigial (left over) organs in humans, supposedly inherited from man's evolutionary ancestors. One popular idea is that humans are sometimes born with tails. Learn how to separate fact from fiction.

Contrary to scripture, old earth creationists and theistic evolutionists often claim that there were animals dying long before Adam and Eve. But did creatures just live happy peaceful lives and then quietly die? What does the fossil record reveal?

How old is the earth? Six to ten thousand years old? Older? How precisely can a creation date be calculated? Why do most scientists believe the earth is old? This week Richard and Calvin explore one of the most controversial issues in the church, and answer these and many more questions about when God created.

The Bible describes a global flood about 1600 years after creation. The most devastating catastrophe ever recorded would surely leave evidence, wouldn't it? So what are consequences of Noah's Flood?

Some people think that evolution has nothing to do with an individual's philosophical outlook. But atheism can't exist evolution. The question of origins has only two possible answers, and for atheists there is only one choice.

A very common question is a version of: "If God is so loving, why are there bad things in the world?" The implication is that if God created the world in the state it is in, He can't be 'very good' Himself. The Bible clearly says that God created everything in 6 days. So when exactly were bad things created?

Many Christians wonder about what our eternal existence will 'look like'. Bible believing Christians know that God is going to create a New Heavens and a New Earth. Hints about what it will be like are found in Genesis.

A popular myth is that radioactive dating methods confirm the geologic time-scale and the concept of human evolution. The methods appear so impressive that many Christians accept them as evidence that the earth is very old. But how solid are those dates?

Despite what some people believe, logic and reason are essential to Christianity. Without them it's impossible to deduce anything from the true propositions of the 66 books of Scripture, which is the final authority for a Christian.

In a debate on June 30, 1860 Thomas Huxley stated that monkeys could, given enough time, produce a Psalm purely by chance. Similarly, molecular movement, given enough time could produce man without a Creator. See why probability arguments like this fail to support evolution.

Most people know about the DNA code as the 'language of life'. Now scientists have discovered the epigenetic code. DNA code is governed by this code, a code so significant that one science writer said that genes are 'little more than puppets'. What is it and how does it confirm creation?

Should Genesis be read as a historical narrative? Does it matters if it is not? Is Genesis written only so that the ancient Hebrews could understand it, but it actually supports today's cosmological, geological and biological theories? The bottom line is: "What did God really say?"

How are evolutionary stories concocted? Are facts given priority over theory? Watch the evolution of the discovery of the so-called 'Hobbit' fossil (missing links) and the stories that were made up to attempt to fit the facts into the evolutionary history.

Marriage is one of the most precious relationships that God has ordained. But many people seem confused about what marriage is. Does the Bible teach polygamy? Is 'same sex' marriage a Godly covenant? Walk through the Bible starting from Genesis to see God's clear standards for marriage.

Christians will agree that God's Word supersedes man's word. However, regarding the creation account, there is a much greater tendency to give authority to extra-biblical ideas. Genesis chapters 1-11 is a case study for biblical authority.

Do Christians worship one God, or three? How does God describe Himself in His Word?

Uniformitarianism is a concept that only processes observed today (slow sedimentation, slow erosion) should be used to explain geology. Learn why it is wrong scientifically, doesn't fit with the Bible, and how it has lead geology astray for the past 200 years.

Christians are being persecuted more and more throughout the Western world as secular humanism continues to grow. But nowhere is criticism and ridicule poured out more than upon biblical creationists, those that take the Bible as plainly written. Learn how to handle the critics attacking creation.

Trees are among the oldest living things on the planet. Some say longer than biblical Creation would allow. Dendrochronology is the science dealing with the study of the rings of trees in determining the dates and chronological order of past events. Learn why it is a help rather than a hindrance to the biblical chronology.

The Bible says God is revealed in His creation. Romans chapter 1 verse 20 demonstrates that everyone can know God exists because of what He made so that they are 'without excuse'. Flying squid, tree climbing crocodiles, woodpeckers, fireflies and decoy spiders are all evidence of the Creator God of the Bible.

There are different kinds of faith. This show explains why everyone lives by faith and summarizes and compares different kinds of faith. In particular it looks at the role that faith plays in the origins debate, for both evolutionists and creationists.

Abortion has been one of the most important ethical issues in Western society for the last four decades. Many people, sadly including many Christians, think abortion is a difficult issue to understand and resolve. Watch the show to examine scripture to gain clarity in this controversial topic.
