I’m back this week to discuss one of my favorite topics, evolution. This interview was initially set up because I was asked questions about Neanderthals and human origins that I simply couldn’t answer. And when I have questions about science and faith issues, I always go to Reasons to Believe. Their scholars have always been an incredible help, and this time I had the privilege to talk to Fazale “Fuz” Rana, a biochemist and the vice president of research and apologetics at RTB.

You should be familiar with the work of RTB if you follow Coffeehouse Questions. I have my certificate in science apologetics from the Reasons Institute. I have also recorded eight podcasts with RTB scholars including Hugh Ross (part 1 and part 2), Kenneth Samples (part 1 and part 2), Jeff Zweerink (part 1 and part 2), and Krista Bontrager (part 1 and part 2).

I hope you enjoy my conversation this week on biochemistry and don’t miss next week on Neanderthals and human origins!
