Cosmic Chemistry: Do God and Science Mix?

John C Lennox (Author)

"In this accessible and engaging introduction, [John Lennox] guides us through the great debates about science and faith, and offers incisive assessments of the issues." Alister McGrath, Professor of Science and Religion, University of Oxford

Is the rigorous pursuit of scientific knowledge really compatible with a sincere faith in God?

Building on the arguments put forward in God’s Undertaker: Has Science Buried God?, Prof John Lennox examines afresh the plausibility of a Christian theistic worldview in the light of some of the latest developments in scientific understanding. Prof Lennox focuses on the areas of evolutionary theory, the origins of life …

Darwin's Black Box: The Biochemical Challenge

Michael J. Behe (Author)

The groundbreaking, "seminal work" (Time) on intelligent design that dares to ask, was Darwin wrong? In 1996, Darwin's Black Box helped to launch the intelligent design movement: the argument that nature exhibits evidence of design, beyond Darwinian randomness. It sparked a national debate on evolution, which continues to intensify across the country. From one end of the spectrum to the other, Darwin's Black Box has established itself as the key intelligent design text—the one argument that must be addressed in order to determine whether Darwinian evolution is sufficient to explain life as we know it. In a major new Afterword … Access details page

Navigating Genesis: A Scientist's Journey through Genesis 1-11

Hugh Ross (Author)

Is constructive integration of Genesis 1-11 with the current scientific knowledge possible? Everyone knows the Bible teaches scientific nonsense that s the commonly held misconception. When pushed for examples, skeptics point to the early part of Genesis, with stories of creation, the flood, and 900-year life spans as proof. Examining recent scientific discoveries, astronomer and pastor Dr. Hugh Ross explores the opening chapters in Genesis and shows how they hold some of the strongest scientific evidence for the Bible s supernatural accuracy. Navigating Genesis expands upon Ross earlier book The Genesis Question (1998), integrating the message of both the Bible … Access details page

Cosmic Chemistry | with John Lennox

Frank Turek (Host) & John C Lennox (Guest)

One of the greatest myths regarding God and science is that science has somehow disproven God. The exact opposite is actually closer to the truth. If science has disproven anything, it has disproven atheism. How can that be? The Great Dr. John Lennox, Professor at Oxford University, joins Frank to offer answers by discussing his new book Cosmic Chemistry. They address questions such as:

What can science explain and what are its limits— what can’t it explain?
What are new developments in science that are pointing more toward intelligence as a cause?
How does atheistic materialism negate our ability to …

Human uniqueness confirmed | No Hard Steps to ETI?

Reasons to believe (Creator) & Hugh Ross (Host) & Fazale Rana (Host)

In this episode, biochemist Fuz Rana describes recent work from researchers at Rockefeller University. The researchers edited specific mouse genes to express the human version of the protein NOVA1, and they believe their research explains human language capability. Their findings add evidence for the exceptional nature of human beings and, consequently, the image of God.

Hugh discusses how four astrobiologists assert that intelligent life is the natural outcome of a hospitable environment. They note that the origin of life and every advance in Earth’s life occurred when physical and chemical conditions first permitted their appearance. Hence, they conclude that these …

Physics to God

Elie Feder (Host) & Aaron Zimmer (Host)

On this podcast, we discuss some of the most fascinating developments in physics and make a convincing argument that they point directly to the existence of God. Over the past few decades, scientists have discovered very special features of the natural world, features which are absolutely necessary for the existence of our complex and ordered universe. Most specifically, we have the constants of nature, numbers whose precise values seem almost too perfect to be explained by chance alone. This is called fine tuning. On Physics to God, we explain it all in a language that you can understand. We show … Access details page

A reassessment of the “hard-steps” model for the evolution of intelligent life

Science Advances (Publisher)

Publication highlighting the exceptionalism of human existence.

Abstract: According to the “hard-steps” model, the origin of humanity required “successful passage through a number of intermediate steps” (so-called “hard steps”) that were intrinsically improbable in the time available for biological evolution on Earth. This model similarly predicts that technological life analogous to human life on Earth is “exceedingly rare” in the Universe. Here, we critically reevaluate core assumptions of the hard-steps model through the lens of historical geobiology. Specifically, we propose an alternative model where there are no hard steps, and evolutionary singularities required for human origins can be explained via …

Long Story Short

Discovery Institute (Creator)

Clever, humorous, substantive, brief, “Long Story Short," is an occasional video series that compresses key points in the debate between Darwinism and intelligent design into a very welcome format: concise, accessible, and funny. As the narrator explains, “One of the main arguments Darwin used for his theory was that of homology, these odd similarities between very different animals. Why would they be so similar unless they were related?” Access details page

3 Proofs of God from Science

Elie Feder (Author) & Aaron Zimmer (Author)

At some point in life, almost everyone has considered the all-important question: Does God exist? While various avenues can provide us with direction for navigating this question, modern people often look to science as the gold standard for shedding light on life’s toughest and most important questions. Therefore, it’s only natural to wonder: Can science be used to determine if God exists?
