Can a Science Flood Story Inspire Us as Much as the One by Noah? OR How Long Can You Tread Water?

Listen Later

The biblical flood story by Noah has been inspirational for millennia. More recently science has uncovered facts about a flood unprecedented in human history, from a time and place that indicate it was the source of the Great Flood experiences and stories. Can this flood story by science be at least as inspirational as Noah’s story? More inspirational? Perhaps a closer look will provide an answer.
