Did Creation or Evolution Win the Scopes Trial?
It’s been a century since the infamous Scopes “Monkey Trial” in Dayton, Tennessee. Most people have forgotten that this (at the time) very high profile trial ever took place, but it had lasting impacts on the culture, the government education system, and, sadly, even the church.
AiG’s Dr. Georgia Purdom recently sat down with Jim Scudder of InGrace Adventures to discuss what happened in 1925 and who “won” the trial—creation or evolution. I encourage you to watch this fascinating interview.
And, as was mentioned in the video, you can join Dr. Purdom, Jim Scudder, astronomer Dr. Danny Faulkner, AiG cofounder Mark Looy, and others in Alaska for a “creation cruise.”
Alaska is one of my favorite places on earth. The words that best describe this gorgeous state are “absolute grandeur.” I encourage you to make plans to go on this cruise and not only enjoy God’s amazing creation but also be blessed by excellent creation apologetics teaching and fellowship with other believers on this beautiful ship. You can learn more at Inspiration Travel’s website.
Thanks for stopping by and thanks for praying, Ken
