    About this audiobook

    Evolution--or the broader topic of origins--has enormous relevance to how we understand the Christian faith and how we interpret Scripture.

    Four Views on Creation, Evolution, and Intelligent Design presents the current "state of the conversation" about origins among evangelicals representing four key positions:

    • Young Earth Creationism - Ken Ham (Answers in Genesis)
    • Old Earth (Progressive) Creationism - Hugh Ross (Reasons to Believe)
    • Evolutionary Creation - Deborah B. Haarsma (BioLogos)
    • Intelligent Design - Stephen C. Meyer (The Discovery Institute)

     

    The contributors offer their best defense of their position addressing questions such as:

    • What is your position on origins - understood broadly to include the physical universe, life, and human beings in particular?
    • What do you take to be the most persuasive arguments in defense of your position?
    • How do you demarcate and correlate evidence about origins from current science and from divine revelation?
    • What hinges on answering these questions correctly?

     

    This book allows each contributor to not only present the case for his or her view, but also to critique and respond to the critiques of the other contributors, allowing you to compare their beliefs in an open forum setting to see where they overlap and where they differ.

    Figures, a book list, and footnotes are included in the audiobook companion PDF download.

    Ken Ham

    Ken Ham is the president/CEO and founder of Answers in Genesis–US and the highly acclaimed Creation Museum. Ham is one of the most in-demand Christian speakers in North America. His emphasis is on the relevance and authority of the book of Genesis and how compromise on Genesis has opened a dangerous door regarding how modern culture and the church view biblical authority. His Australian accent, keen sense of humor, captivating stories, and exceptional PowerPoint illustrations have made him one of North America’s most effective Christian communicators.
