Let's Talk Creation

What can microscopic fossils tell us about Earth's history? In this episode of Let's Talk Creation, hosts Todd Wood and Paul Garner welcome Neal Doran for an in-depth conversation about the fascinating world of micropaleontology and its potential significance for creation science. Microscopic fossils may be tiny, but they can provide remarkable insights into the geological record. From single-celled organisms to the shells of ancient marine life, these fossils play an important role in understanding ocean sediments, rock formation, and past environmental conditions.

In our final 2026 "live" episode from the offices of Biblical Creation Trust, our intrepid hosts Todd and Paul spend some quality time exploring the sights in Cambridge itself. From Newton to Woodward to Sedgwick to Darwin, Cambridge has been home to many people who have influenced the way we think about God's creation. As Paul shows Todd around, they chat about the clockwork universe, theories of creation, and of course Darwin's time in Cambridge. All that and William Smith's map, too!

On the east coast of England, Todd and Paul continue their travels down the coast. This time, they're chasing glaciers! No, they're not confused, they're looking for evidence of the ice age that covered that part of the world in glaciers long ago. These weren't just little glaciers either. This ice left behind some astounding debris, and Paul and Todd are there to see it! All that, and Todd gets to talk about human origins AGAIN. Check it out in this latest episode!

As we continue our series on Creationism 101, Paul and Todd tackle Genesis 5-6, which include the genealogy of Adam's son Seth and the world before the Flood. Topics include exploring the intriguing similarities between Cain's and Seth's genealogies, the debate over the identity of the "sons of God" and "daughters of men," and the rather surprising literary structure of the story of Noah's Ark and the global flood. All this and more in our 140th episode!

We apologize for the lateness of this episode. In this episode of "Let’s Talk Creation," hosts Todd Wood and Paul Garner are joined by returning guest Joe Francis for a deep look at the crazy world of viruses. Framed in the context of God's good design, Dr. Francis and our hosts explore the purposes and functions of viruses beyond just agents of disease. Because God made the world "very good," every oneof his creations must have had a part in that goodness. Based on surprising new research, you're sure to gain a new appreciation for viruses and the complexity of God's creation.

Plus: Upcoming events will be discussed. You won't want to miss these events.Materials Mentioned in this episode
