What does modern science actually reveal about God? Philosopher and Discovery Institute senior fellow Jay Richards joins Crosswalk Talk's Michael Foust to discuss the new documentary The Story of Everything and why he believes the evidence increasingly points to an intelligent Creator. In this conversation, Richards explores the supposed conflict between science and Christianity, shares the scientific and philosophical arguments he finds most persuasive for God's existence, and explains why discoveries about the universe have strengthened – not weakened – the case for design. He also discusses whether the possibility of extraterrestrial life would pose any challenge to the Christian faith and what he hopes viewers will take away from the film.
