Creation Day 1
Discusses the properties of light that contribute to make our planet habitable
Creation Day 2
What are the properties of the earth's atmosphere that make it just right to sustain life?
Creation Day 3
Explains how the composition of the crust, properties of water, and metabolism of plants contribute to support life on earth
Creation Week
What was created on the first day of creation week? What was created on the fourth day of creation week? Why doesn't the sequence of the days of creation match the sequence in the fossil record? Could the days of creation actually represent periods of a thousand years each, as in 2 Peter 3:8? Could the "days" of creation represent indefinite periods of time? Did the creation take place 6000 years ago? How did Cain find a wife if there were no other humans around before creation week? Do Genesis 1 and 2 present different accounts of the creation? What unsolved questions about creation week are of greatest interest?
Creation Day 5
Illustrates some examples of ingenuous functional design and cooperation in marine organisms and birds
Creation Day 6
Illustrates complex and functional systems in terrestrial organisms and addresses the uniqueness of humans
Creation Day 7
Reflects on the day of rest and on the character of the Creator
Genesis Flood
Where did the water come from for the flood, and where did it go? How could the waters of the flood cover Mt. Everest? How could the Earth be destroyed by 40 days and 40 nights of rain? Was the flood truly worldwide? What about proposals that the biblical Flood story refers to a local flood somewhere in the Middle East? What unsolved questions about the Flood are of greatest interest?

Book review by Jim Gibson
Speciation
What are the "Genesis kinds?" How do we account for predators, parasites and poisonous creatures if animals originally ate plants? Aren't there limits to how much species can change? What is the taxonomic unit that best represents the originally created kinds? Can species change rapidly enough to account for present biodiversity in a relatively short time? How do we explain the genetic and molecular similarities of humans and chimpanzees? What unsolved problems about change in species are of greatest interest?
