  Introducing...

  May 14, 202627 minS0

  <p>In this episode of The Winsome Creationist, I share a project I’ve been working on for the past three years: Go Fund Creation, a brand-new crowdfunding website designed to solve a major problem in creation science—lack of dedicated, transparent research funding. After conversations at the July 2023 International Conference on Creationism, I partnered with Steven Polycarp Policastro and the International Association for Creation, along with Logos Research Associates, to build a platform where donors can support vetted creation research projects with a clear 90/10 split (90% to researchers, 10% to platform costs). I tour the site, explain the mission and blog, and...

  Should Christians Ever Appeal to the Supernatural in Science?

  Apr 23, 202624 minS0

  <p>In this episode, I’m thinking out loud about whether it’s wrong for Christians to appeal to the supernatural while doing science, and when that kind of appeal should (or shouldn’t) be part of our models. I talk about the tension between a supernaturally created world and science as the study of the natural world, and I walk through examples like the resurrection, the distant starlight question (including Danny Faulkner’s DAA idea and other possible mechanisms), and the Flood—especially the unresolved “heat problem” tied to catastrophic plate tectonics. I also lay out the differences between philosophical...

  Should Young Earth Creationists Watch “The Story of Everything”? (My Honest Take)

  Apr 9, 202635 minS0

  <p>In this episode of The Wins of Creationist, I talk through whether Christians—especially young age creationists like me—should watch and recommend the upcoming documentary The Story of Everything (in theaters April 30, 2026), based on Steven Meyer’s The Return of the God Hypothesis and released through Fathom Entertainment. I explain how intelligent design draws its line at “design vs. no design,” not the age of the earth, and why that can confuse some viewers if the film leans on Big Bang cosmology. Using similar past critiques aimed at Is Genesis History, I argue it’s fair for different projects to...

  Episode #56

  Is Young Earth Creationism Compatible with the Divine Council Worldview?

  Mar 26, 202652 minS0

  <p>I respond to a question sparked by a Facebook post: are the Divine Council worldview and young age (young earth) creationism compatible, and can you take ancient Near Eastern scholarship seriously while upholding biblical authority? I clarify that young age creationists don’t deny dinosaurs, and I argue the “Bible vs. ancient Near Eastern background” framing is a false dichotomy because Scripture was written in an ancient Near Eastern context under God’s superintendence. I explain the Divine Council worldview as a royal hierarchy with Yahweh as “species unique,” other created elohim (including beings like malak, seraphim, and cherubim), and humanity...

  Should Christians DIVIDE Over Young Earth Creationism?

  Mar 19, 202651 minS0

  <p>Responding to Ken Ham on Unity, Authority, and the Gospel</p><p>*Important note: I appreciate Ken Ham's bold stand for the gospel and I take my family to his attractions every single year and we enjoy them immensely. I wish I didn't have to make this video, but I think it's very important that we clarify and get these issues right as we move forward to build a better creationism for the future. </p><p>---</p><p>In this episode, I’m back after a year away finishing my book, and I jump right into Ken Ham’s rec...
