"Where Did The Floodwaters Go?" That's the title of today's episode, which has Genesis 8:5-14 as its main text. One common objection to believing the validity of Noah's Flood is the perceived dilemma as to where would all of the floodwaters go at the end of the flood.

This episode explores where the ark may have come to rest.

"The Height of the Flood." That's the title of today's episode, which has Genesis 7:17-8:3 as its main text.

"God's Plan For The Animals." That's the title of today's episode, which has Genesis 6:19-22 as its main text.

We also compare and contrast microevolution and macroevolution.

"God's Plan For The Ark." That's the title of today's episode, which has Genesis 6:12-18 as its main text.
