The crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus changed everything. Not just for eternity, but for the world here and now.

According to Glen Scrivener, the author of The Air We Breathe, How We All Came to Believe In Freedom, Kindness, Progress, and Equality, most of what we now consider to be self-evident human values were not so evident or common before Jesus.

In this conversation, Karl and Glen talk about:

• How so many principles that most people consider universal, are actually the result of the Christian worldview
• Why this goes unnoticed by people, Christians and non-Christians alike
• Why it’s important to regain this understanding
• What the values of the world looked like before the cross upended everything
• How a clear understanding of the first three chapters of Genesis is the foundation for all of it

How Good Theology Became the Basis for Good Science, with Glen Scrivener

Good theology and good science are good friends. In this short conversation with Glen Scrivener, Karl Vaters asks him about the three legs upon which this reality sits.

These three principles become clear when we have a better understanding of the first three chapters of the Bible:

1. The freedom of God
2. That humans can understand God’s ways
3. Taking human fallibility into account
