On today’s Creation Today Show, Eric Hovind and Ben Schettler defend Christianity against Atheist’s left hooks at Christianity’s supposedly “harmful effects.” Quick to block, special guest Sye Ten Bruggencate knocks Atheists right off their feet, exposing their contradictions and their inability to debate. Learn how to keep up your guard from jabs against our faith as Ben and Eric demonstrate how “some things just don’t mix” like TRUTH and ERROR.
Today’s show features special guest Tim Chaffey who answers some top questions concerning the Ark Encounter Project. Eric Hovind and Ben Schettler trudge through today’s “political correctness” and answer the tough questions, “Are all religions bad?” and “How do you communicate to Atheists and affirm the truth of the God’s Word?” Watch what happens when Eric and Ben experiment with fire!
In this exciting episode, Eric Hovind and Ben Schettler share the truth and supporting evidence of the Flood. Eric even replicates a mini Grand Canyon to demonstrate it! Ben’s “apology” gives a deeper understanding into evolutionist’s problem — the origin of life — a behemoth problem that evolutionists cannot answer! With a “Christian movie” hype in the air, don’t miss special guest Genesis 3D Movie Producer, Ralph Strean, discussing the importance of true biblical films.
On Thur. Nov. 15, 2011, Eric Hovind, President of Creation Today, (Christian, Young Earth Creationist) & Bernie Dehler (atheist, former evangelical Christian) held a debate at Portland State University, sponsored by one of the university's Christian groups. There were two main topics: evidence and morality.
The session on "evidence" dealt with questions about the "unknowns" in science, especially regarding origins. How did the universe begin to exist? How did biological life arise from non-life. If scientists can't answer these questions, does it logically follow that God did these things by miracle?
Regarding morality, Hovind presented the idea that morality seems to exist in the world as moral law, and asked "who created these laws, if not God? How could mindless nature create moral laws?" Dehler's take was that morality can largely be reasoned-out using the rubric of consequentialism, reciprocity, and consideration of individual freedom. Hovind wiped the floor with this guy.
Dehler had a hand-out for the audience, showing his main points and also giving links for further suggested research. Click here to see his handout.

Why Teaching Creation is Essential – Season 3 Episode 22
“Paradise
created. Paradise lost. Paradise restored. And it all points to Jesus.”
That is special guest, Mike Riddle’s summary of the Bible’s message.
Eric and Paul discuss with Mike the foundational importance of Genesis
and how to look for misleading phrases found in
popular science articles
and school textbooks. Unveil these errors as Mike references these
“f-u-z-z-y w-o-r-d-s.”
How Do I Train to Be a Creation Speaker? – Season 3 Episode 21
Eric and Paul chat with their special guest, Mike Riddle, President and Founder of Creation Training Initiative, pioneering programs to train the next generation of creation and apologetics speakers.

A
one-day course designed to prepare Christians to speak about and defend

Did God Use Evolution? Many
church leaders and Christians today believe God used evolution as part
of His creation process. Many Christians have been influenced by th…
There is a lot of controversy
about the length of the days of creation in Genesis 1. In our analysis
we will start with establishing the importance of the book of Genesis.
This is because many Christians do not see the importance of creation or
even the book of Genesis. Secondly, we will examine …
Answering biblical objections to a literal six day creation When
I ask many Christians why they believe the earth is old very seldom do
they start with the Bible. Instead their initial answer is based on the

The Evolution worldview requires
long ages for all the physical processes and structures to form around
the earth such as large canyons, sedimentation and mountains. But do
all these really require long ages? In this talk we will examine

In this presentation Mike
discusses why the origin of life is a major problem for people holding
to a belief in evolution. By showing that there is no scientific
evidence for how life could start by naturalistic processes it must
ultimately be accepted by faith. Mike also talks about the fact that the

What Is the Message in the DNA Bottle? – Season 3 Episode 20
DNA is all about information. The base molecules are like a 4-letter alphabet, in which is written all the information required for living activity. Eric and Paul answer questions about the nature of this information, and how it could not possibly have evolved. They also look at an extraordinary new pseudo-scientific study that claims that humans might be partially evolved from pigs!
Bill Nye has become the “evangelism” guy – at least in terms of proselytizing for atheism. Paul and Eric report on their visit to a presentation by Bill Nye at the University of Florida at Gainsville. Nye’s atheism has nothing of substance to offer the young people, who, nevertheless, lined for a quarter of a mile to get to see their hero. Paul and Eric and a team of helpers had a thousand copies of Ray Comfort’s film “Evolution vs God” to give out. Nye’s worldview, however, is so bankrupt that he claimed that photos of Pluto would “change the world”.
Big Bang theorists suggest it is possible to see stars being born in the so-called ‘star forming regions’. In this episode, Eric and Paul deconstruct an article on star formation using the ‘fuzzy words analysis’ method. After removing what the author believes is taking place, there is little real science remaining. Watch how easy it is for you to uncover the faith-based statements masquerading as science in this week’s episode of Creation Today.
After decreasing popularity for many years, the Gap Theory is once again gaining momentum among churches. It teaches that a long period of time elapsed between Genesis 1:1 and 1:2, during which Satan fell, pre-Adamic humanoids roamed the Earth, and in which God sent an early flood to start the re-creation of the world in six literal days. Eric and Paul show from scripture that the Gap Theory is not possible and not biblical, maintaining that the plain reading of Scripture – a single week of God’s creative action – is the correct way to understand Genesis 1.
Does the Bible Teach a Young Earth? Season 3 Episode 16
Eric and Paul are once again joined by Frank Sherwin of the Institute for Creation Research. Frank gave us a brief history of ICR, and spoke about the uses and limits of using intelligent design evidence, as well as what the Bible says about the age of the Earth.
Name:
Frank Sherwin
Title:
Research Associate, Senior Lecturer, and Science Writer
Frank Sherwin received his bachelor's degree in biology from Western State College, Gunnison, Colorado, in 1978. He attended graduate school at the University of Northern Colorado, where he studied under the late Gerald D. Schmidt, one of the foremost parasitologists in America. In 1985, Mr. Sherwin obtained a masters degree in zoology. He published his research in the peer-reviewed Journal of Parasitology. He contributes his scientific expertise to a variety of ICR's publications on creation science. He is the author of The Ocean Book and Guide to Animals, and co-author of The Fossil Record: Unearthing Nature's History of Life and The Human Body: An Intelligent Design, and is one of ICR's most sought-after speakers.
Available books by Frank Sherwin:
Eric and Paul’s special guest on this week’s show is ICR speaker and researcher Frank Sherwin. Frank discusses a wide range of research issues, including where parasitic behavior came from. Parasitic behavior would not have existed in the world that God designed, before Adam’s sin, and therefore these behaviors must have developed from ‘legitimate’ behaviors created by God.
We have lots of evidence that man and dinosaurs have always lived together. In this week’s Creation Today Show,
Paul and Eric take the Bible, and use it as their foundation to
interpret the dinosaur evidence. They also look at how evolutionary
presuppositions are seen in media portrayals of dinosaurs and show how
language and imagination constitute the only “evidence” that
evolutionists have to offer.
With atheism on the rise, how do Christians answer the skeptics questions about God? Does evidence help convert the Atheist to Christianity? What proof do we actually need to present in order for the skeptic to worship the God of the Bible?
