Most people assume slavery lies at the root of racism. But what if a different culprit was far more influential—one still respected today in classrooms and museums? This conversation uncovers how Darwinian evolution became the driving force behind modern racism.

Guest Joel Tay traces a shocking lineage: from “human zoos” and grave robbing, to eugenics, genocide, and the ideology behind Planned Parenthood. Joel exposes the ideas that shaped it all and offers a radical alternative grounded in biblical truth and human unity.

Science is all about reviewing data, hypothesizing, making predictions, and testing those predictions. If the prediction aren’t born out—if they don’t match reality—then the theory should be modified—or ultimately abandoned.

So, how well does evolution hold up as a theory, when judged by its predictions? Does it match the real world? Join plant biologist Dr Don Batten as he scrutinises five major predictions of evolution. Is evolution as ‘scientific’ as people are led to believe?

DNA is supposedly millions of years old, but can it really survive that long? The evidence suggests otherwise. From genetic entropy showing species can’t survive endless mutations, to ancient DNA breaking down too quickly in the ground, to mitochondrial Eve and Y-chromosome Adam pointing to recent common ancestors — multiple lines of evidence challenge evolutionary timescales.

DNA barcoding reveals another puzzle: species across the animal kingdom appear to be roughly the same age, as if some major event reset life on Earth. Dr Robert Carter explores how genetics supports a biblical timeline.

How did Noah fit massive dinosaurs on the Ark? Where did all the food come from? What about waste management for thousands of animals?

Most people picture Noah’s Ark as a tiny bathtub with giraffes poking out the top. The biblical description reveals something drastically different—a colossal vessel measuring 450 feet long, stable enough to withstand 500-foot waves, and spacious enough for 102,000 sheep-sized animals.

Dr Jonathan Sarfati addresses these practical questions with engineering precision, explaining everything from ancient preservation techniques to the Ark’s box-like design that made it nearly impossible to capsize.

Two out of three teens are leaving the church after high school—a statistic that should alarm every Christian parent. But why are they walking away, and what can be done to prevent this exodus?

The root cause isn’t what most expect. While churches focus on entertainment and youth activities, the real issue lies in intellectual preparation. Students face evolutionary teaching daily but receive no scientific evidence supporting biblical creation. When faith meets academia, unprepared minds abandon belief.

A revealing campus survey shows the stark reality: students equipped with creation answers stay faithful, while thos...

Two genealogies of Jesus—one from Matthew, one from Luke—list different names. Why? And what does it mean for Jesus’ claim to be the Messiah? One approach suggests Matthew lists royal succession, not biology, while Luke follows a biological line through a different son of David. But a deeper dive reveals something even more intriguing.

Could legal adoption, Levirate marriage, and repentance after exile explain how Jesus inherited both David’s bloodline and right to the throne? Dr Robert Carter offers a reconstruction that makes sense of it all—and reinforces trust in the Bible’s reliability...

Impact craters exist across Earth and the moon, but what do they reveal about our planet’s history? Explore how these cosmic scars challenge conventional theories about dinosaur extinction and instead provide compelling evidence for a global flood. The surprising arrangement of lunar craters suggests a catastrophic bombardment occurred rapidly, contradicting the millions-of-years timeline.

Delve into the mystery of what really happened to dinosaurs after the Flood and why they don’t appear in certain rock layers. Dr Tas Walker explains how meteorite impacts during Noah’s flood reshaped Earth’s geology and reminds us of our planet’s...

The book of Genesis poses many profound questions for every Christian. How long were the “days” of Genesis? Could there have been literal days before the sun? Would organisms have evolved and died before the Fall? What insights can be gleaned from the original Hebrew language of the text?

Join us as we tackle these issues and more, exploring the implications that these have for our understanding of creation and how God’s redemptive plan plays out in history.

Discover the smallest motor in the universe—an astonishing molecular machine that powers all living cells with atomic precision. Explore why ATP synthase, with its near-perfect efficiency, challenges human engineering and evolutionary explanations.

Dr Jonathan Sarfati explains how DNA’s replicating, repair, and detangling machines are vital for life. They are all encoded in the DNA, but the DNA can’t be decoded without these machines. This presents a “chicken-and-egg” paradox for naturalistic theories. DNA is also very unstable. Its presence in dinosaur bones undermine millions of years. RNA is 100× less stable than DNA, so could not be the firs...

The theory of evolution is widely taught in schools, but what if students aren't learning what they think they are? A surprising sleight of hand occurs in science classrooms worldwide. Students learn about natural selection—a process that can be observed and tested—but are told they've learned about evolution itself. While natural selection removes genetic information, evolution requires gaining it.

Julie Neller, with 15 years of experience managing a school science laboratory, explains this critical distinction and why understanding it matters. Discover how parents can guide their children through these classroom challenges and equip them to think crit...

What does it mean to be a man? Society offers conflicting answers, from outdated stereotypes to extremes of dominance or passivity. But what does the Bible say? Masculinity is more than appearances or achievements—it’s about integrity, humility, and servant leadership. A real man leads with compassion, exercises self-control, and strives to reflect the character of God.

Scripture shows us flawed men—David, Moses, Gideon—who still pursued righteousness. It’s a call to resilience, repentance, and faith. Jeff Benjamin shares how these timeless principles challenge and inspire men to live as God intended.

Many Christians find themselves unsure how to respond when confronted with common atheist arguments. In this episode, apologist Keaton Halley addresses five frequently encountered challenges: Who created God? Aren't Christians atheists regarding other gods? Can God make a rock too heavy to lift? Would you believe differently if raised elsewhere? And is God just filling gaps in scientific knowledge?

Keaton exposes the fundamental logical flaws in each argument while providing Christians with confident, reasoned responses. Drawing from his background in apologetics, he demonstrates how these challenges fail to undermine Christianity, and explains why evidence from science and...

The Bible speaks of a New Heavens and Earth. But what will it be like? Will it be some sort of ethereal, spirit-like existence? Or will it be physical?

And how do a person’s beliefs about Genesis and origins—for example, belief in evolution and long ages—impact their beliefs about the coming New Creation?

Even the ‘simplest’ life forms are packed with biological ‘nanobots’—intricate molecular machines like DNA detanglers, rotary motors, and linear motors that are absolutely fundamental to life. Without them, life wouldn’t exist. So, can evolution explain their origin step by step? Not at all! As plant biologist Dr Don Batten explains, these nanomachines clearly point to intelligent design—not as a religious conclusion, but simply as the best explanation of the evidence.

Can Christians reconcile millions of years with the Bible? While some argue God could have used such vast periods to create, this idea raises theological challenges. Death and suffering in the fossil record contradict the Bible’s teaching of a perfect creation before the Fall. The question becomes one of authority: do we trust Scripture’s clear account, or reinterpret it to fit modern scientific claims?

In this video Dr Robert Carter, a Ph.D. in coral reef ecology and genetics, explores the distinction between natural selection and evolution, and examines how the two are actually opposites. We dig into how natural selection is part of God’s design, and how when we see species adapt within created boundaries, we are seeing something fundamentally different from evolution. Topics covered include how epigenetics and “created diversity” fit into biblical creation, how natural selection reduces rather than increases genetic diversity, and the origins of the millions of species that we see on earth today.

The discovery of ice cores raises significant questions about Earth’s history and the accuracy of long-age interpretations. Are these frozen layers evidence of hundreds of thousands of years, or is there another explanation? The conventional dating of ice cores relies on assumptions about slow accumulation rates and orbital cycles, but what if those assumptions are flawed?

Dr. Tas Walker explains how rapid ice buildup—consistent with the aftermath of Noah’s Flood—better fits the evidence. He challenges listeners to rethink what they’ve been told and explore a perspective that aligns with both science and the biblic...

In this insightful conversation, the power of forgiveness is explored as a key to resolving conflicts. Jeff Benjamin delves into the challenges of reconciliation, emphasizing that avoiding conflict only builds tension over time. Instead, he advocates for facing issues head-on through forgiveness, even before receiving an apology, as a way to foster healthier relationships.

Forgiveness, Benjamin explains, isn’t only for others; it frees us from bitterness and allows for peace. He shares how this principle aligns with biblical teachings and offers practical applications for workplace and personal relationships, encouraging listeners to rethink how they handle offenses, bi...

Our solar system presents mysteries that challenge conventional timelines. Saturn’s fragile rings, decaying faster than expected, remain too pristine for their supposed age. Oddball moons defy naturalistic formation theories, with some behaving unpredictably—like Pluto’s moon Nix, which spins backward against all logic.

Dr Mark Harwood highlights these anomalies, alongside unexpected atmospheres and the persistence of short-period comets. Observations align with a recent creation, inviting a reevaluation of assumptions about the solar system’s age and origins. Dr Harwood ultimately ties these scientific insights to a worldview grounded in biblical truth.

Genetic engineering offers remarkable possibilities but raises significant ethical questions. Is it right to alter DNA to repair defects or improve crops? What about using genetic modifications to regrow human limbs? These advancements come with the potential for unintended consequences, requiring wisdom and moral clarity. How can Christians discern boundaries in a world where technology’s reach seems limitless?

Dr Rob Carter examines genetic engineering through three guiding principles: respecting humans as bearers of God’s image, stewarding creation responsibly, and following Christ’s example of healing and restoration. He explores applications ranging from medical breakthroughs to ethica...

Magnetic fields, active volcanoes, and a receding moon – could these phenomena reveal a younger solar system than we’ve been told? Exploring these clues, we discover decaying magnetic fields that challenge billions of years, volcanoes whose energy sources defy long-age explanations, and a moon drifting from Earth too swiftly to fit evolutionary timelines.

Each observation, viewed through a biblical lens, offers a perspective consistent with a creation thousands of years ago. Dr Mark Harwood, with expertise in aerospace and electromagnetics, presents compelling evidence that questions the naturalistic assumptions underpinning mainstream science.

For nearly a century it has been claimed that mutations are the engine that drives evolution, bringing new traits and information to the genome.

And yet, the more we have learned about mutations, the more they have been shown for what they really are: A destructive force, rather than a creative one—responsible for hundreds of thousands of different diseases in humans alone!
