Ep 33 - Origins: Creation, Evolution and Why it Matters With Calvin Smith - Part 1

Send us Fan MailWhere do we come from—and why does it matter? In “Origins: Creation, Evolution, and Why It Matters,” I sit down with Calvin Smith to dig into the most debated topic in faith and culture. We trace the core claims of biblical creation and evolutionary theory, how evidence is interpreted through different lenses, and what gets lost in the “science vs. faith” narrative. We also talk about the human side: identity, purpose, morality, and hope. Calvin offers accessible explanations, common pitfalls (on both sides), and practical ways to think clearly without dodging hard questions. If you’ve wrestled with Genesis, fossils, radiometric dating, natural selection, or how to talk about this with friends and family, this episode gives you a thoughtful, balanced roadmap—so you can pursue truth with humility and confidence.Support the show
