Creation & Church History w/ Jackson Greer | What did Christians throughout history believe about creation?
Listen to this fascinating conversation with Jackson Greer about creation through the lens of church history. Over the last 2,000 years, what did Christians believe about creation, the age of the earth, and the material world? What cultural beliefs about creation and the body set Christians at odds with the world? How can knowing their stories help us understand our story in church history?
Jackson argues we need the church fathers for such a moment as this, and I think you will agree. Enjoy!

Young Earth | Why Jeffrey Young believes the earth is only 6,000(ish) years old | Science & Creation
Despite Google's claim that the world is 4.54 billion years OLD, Jeffery Young makes the case for why he believes the world is 6,000(ish) years YOUNG.
In this episode, Young makes the case for the Christian position know as "young earth," claiming Genesis 1 teaches God made the world in six 24 hour days. Jeffery uses geology, astronomy, and Jesus to refute google and back up his claim that the earth is young. Enjoy.

Old Earth | Why Jimmy Slack believes the earth is billions of years old | Science & Creation
Jimmy Slack will be the first to say both Young Earth and Old Earth Christians agree about the WHO, WHAT, and WHY of creation—which are the most important! However, Christians often disagree about the exact HOW and WHEN of creation. The main distinction stems from the question: Does the word “day” (Yom in Hebrew) in Genesis 1 refer to 24 hours or a long period?
In this podcast episode, Slack makes the case for why he believes “day” in the text refers to a long period of time. Slack, once an atheist, has studied creation and science for the past 30+ years. He deeply loves Jesus, the Bible, and his glorious Creator.
So whether you believe in young Earth or old Earth or not sure, you will find this interview fascinating (I know I did). And yes, I ask Jimmy about dinosaurs. Enjoy!

Customer Reviews
Digestible Information
Over the years, as a Christian, I’ve found some parts of the Bible hard to understand. Kory dissects scripture and it’s teaching into knowledge that not only is understandable but also actionable. I check for new episodes weekly!
Great perspective
Great listen. Great reminders. It’s so easy to fall into seasons of “I’m too tired” “I’m too busy” “I’ll do it later” and it makes us so weak as Christians
Wow; I love my Bible more!
After listening to all the current episodes I Love the podcast! Very encouraging and great takeaways to gain a deeper understanding and love for the Bible!
