<strong>A Mind behind the Universe and a Deck of Cards</strong>

If a deck of cards is dealt out, can you tell if the cards were shuffled and arranged by random processes or if the distribution was rigged? If so, would this same logic work in nature? In both cases, it is important to be careful what conclusions you draw.
Exceptionally Human
by Stephen Mitchell | November 2, 2022 | Adam and Eve, Design, Early Man, Jesus and Science | 0 Comments
This post will discuss the idea that humans were created by God in His image and as such are inherently valuable. A number of recent scientific articles will be given that relate to this. If God has created mankind and designed us to be in relationship to Him, then this explains our sense of right and wrong as these are related to God. It gives us both purpose and responsibility.

Is a Genesis 1 a poem, a fable or a historical narrative?
by Stephen Mitchell | April 26, 2020 | Bible and Creation, Genesis | 0 Comments
How we understand the genre of the creation accounts affects how we interpret it.
The Bible is God’s special revelation, His message to humans that provides key information about who and why. Nature is God’s general revelation that demonstrates God’s majesty to all humans everywahere and at all times. There will be no contradictions between the two, but our interpretations are weakened by incomplete knowledge and our human limitations. Here are clues and possible interpretations.

Bent Rock Layers and Deep Time

Sedimentary rocks are often “bent” (folded). If they were hard rocks at the time of the folding, then that folding must have happened over millions of years. If they were soft sediments at the time of deformation, then it could have happened more quickly. Which do the rocks tell us occurred?
