How Astronomy Reveals God with Dr. Danny Faulkner

In this Episode of DEFENDING THE FAITH, Dr. Frank Harber interviews guest Danny Faulkner on “How Astronomy Reveals God.”

The Scriptures contain an incredible wealth of knowledge in what they communicate about the science of astronomy. The Universe was created with purpose and reason; and modern science with all of its experiments, exploration, and sophistication has never proven otherwise.  Author Dr. Danny Faulkner makes plain that advanced science argues more created cosmology than a big bang.  

While the stars appear timeless, they instead reflect an all-powerful Creator who speaks of them in the Bible. Many ancient pagan cultures taught that the changing stars caused the seasons to change, but unlike these pagan teaching, the Book of Job gives credit to God for both changing stars and seasons (Job 38:31-33). When Job looked at Orion, he saw about what we see today, even though he may have lived as much as 4,000 years ago. 

Dr. Danny Faulkner holds an MS in physics from Clemson University, an MA and a PhD in astronomy from Indiana University, and he taught at the University of South Carolina—Lancaster for over 26 years. He has published over 100 papers in various journals. He has written several books on astronomy. Danny works as a researcher, author, and speaker for Answers in Genesis. He also hosts Ark Encounter trips down to Red River Gorge (in eastern Kentucky), and Stargazer’s Nights (at the Johnson Observatory); he also hosts Astronomy Live programs, and “The Skies Proclaim His Handiwork” workshops at the Creation Museum.
