Look for God in the Story, with Tara-Leigh Cobble (Mind-Change Monday) Apr 22, 2024

Show notes

Tara-Leigh Cobble Changed Her Mind About God

It's Mind-Change Monday, and today's guest is the host of The Bible Recap Podcast. Tara-Leigh Cobble helps millions of people read, understand, and love the Word of God every day. But before she could do that, she had to change her mind. This is a perfect conversation for self-brain surgeons, because you can't change your life until you change your mind, and learning to love God's word is the first step to getting that done.

Check out The Bible Recap website!

Tara-Leigh is also a sought-after public speaker and teacher.

She also founded D-Group International, which exists to help people READ, UNDERSTAND, and LOVE the Bible, as they encounter God in a way that transforms their entire lives.

Darwin Has a Molecule Problem, with Dr. Michael Behe (Self-Brain Surgery Saturday) Apr 13, 2024

Show notes

It's Self-Brain Surgery Saturday!

We're all taught in school that Charles Darwin's theory of evolution explains how we got here. But the truth is, modern molecular biology continues to struggle to prove even the most basic elements of that idea. Survival of the fittest is an obvious truth, but survival does not explain arrival, and since Watson and Crick gave us the molecular structure of DNA in the 1950's, the picture has become more and more bleak for the Darwinists.

My guest today is Dr. Michael Behe. He is a biochemist from Lehigh University, and his incredible book is Darwin's Black Box: The Biochemical Challenge to Evolution.
From Amazon.com:

Naming Darwin's Black Box to the National Review's list of the 100 most important nonfiction works of the 20th century, George Gilder wrote that it "overthrows Darwin at the end of the 20th century in the same way that quantum theory overthrew Newton at the beginning".

Discussing the book in the New Yorker in May 2005, H. Allen Orr said of Behe, "He is the most prominent of the small circle of scientists working on intelligent design, and his arguments are by far the best known." From one end of the spectrum to the other, Darwin's Black Box has established itself as the key text in the Intelligent Design movement - the one argument that must be addressed in order to determine whether Darwinian evolution is sufficient to explain life as we know it, or not.

For this edition, Behe has written a major new Afterword tracing the state of the debate in the decade since it began. It is his first major new statement on the subject and will be welcomed by the thousands who wish to continue this intense debate.
