This year is the fiftieth anniversary of the discovery of the Lucy skeleton in the remote Afar region of Ethiopia! Celebrated by evolutionists and scorned by creationists, what is the story of this skeleton? In the first part of this two-part series, Paul and Todd take a long, hard look at the Lucy skeleton. Is it really all that similar to humans? Or is it more like a chimpanzee? And what's the deal with that knee??? Find out all this and more in this week's episode!

You've heard of Flood geology, but what about Flood THEOLOGY? Join Todd and Paul as they chat with Dustin Burlet about the account of the Flood and what it teaches about God's provision and care even in times of judgment and fear. Through the process of rhetorical critical analysis, Dr. Burlet helps us to see the Flood in new ways that emphasize God's covenantal provision. You'll gain a new perspective on God's salvation in this latest episode of Let's Talk Creation! Send questions to podcast@coresci.org Support the podcast by going to https://letstalkcreation.org

Paul and Todd pick up on their biblical chronology series again as they explore the question everyone's been asking: Could the numbers in Genesis 5 and 11 just be symbols or ways to honor the ancestors or have other nonliteral meaning? After all, if the numbers aren't real lifespans, then there's no point in adding them up to create a chronology. Scholars for years have proposed all sorts of schemes to explain why the numbers are the way they are. Does it all just come down to symbols? Check out the latest "Let's Talk Creation" to find out.

Hans Madueme is back for round two as Paul and Todd continue their conversation over his book Defending Sin. In this episode, they get down to really deep issues as they wrestle with the actual relationship of science and faith. How do believers go about reconciling what they see in science and in Scripture? Is there a right way? What do our anxieties have to do with this? Struggling through these issues lead the guys to chat about being creationists in a pluralistic church, where different people believe different things. If our most important goal is following Jesus, what does that look like when our personal beliefs are so very different from someone else's? We hope you enjoy the conversation as Todd and Paul wrap up their interview with Hans Madueme in this episode!

Paul and Todd visit Covenant College in Lookout Mountain, GA (in person!) to chat with Hans Madueme about his new book "Defending Sin: A Response to the Challenges of Evolution and the Natural Sciences." After talking about the book itself, they get into the deeper issues. What is biblical realism? How should we talk about the "conflicts" between science and faith? What about dogma and scientific fabilism? Haven't theologians gotten things wrong too? Find out all this and more as Todd and Paul talk to Hans Madueme on this latest episode of Let's Talk Creation!

In the latest installment of the biblical chronology series, Paul and Todd look for ancient witnesses to the content of Genesis 5 and 11. From the Jewish historian Josephus and the peculiar book of Jubilees, we can get glimpses of ancient Genesis manuscripts long since lost. Can these books clear up the Genesis chronology? Or will we be more confused than ever? Find out in the latest episode of "Let's Talk Creation!"

You asked, and we answered! Join Paul and Todd at the new Core Academy offices for rapid-fire replies to your questions. What's the problem with human species? What about other Flood boundaries?
