Kootenai Church Conference with Dr. Jason Lisle Session 3: Understanding Genesis

There are many opinions and subsequent interpretations on the Book of Genesis. What did the author of Genesis intend and how can we possibly know, or is the important thing only what the Bible “means to you?”

Dr. Lisle is a Christian astrophysicist who researches issues pertaining to science and the Christian faith. A popular speaker and author, Dr. Lisle presents a rational defense of a literal Genesis, showing how science confirms the history recorded in the Bible.

Jason currently works in a full-time apologetics ministry and currently runs the Biblical Science Institute. He wrote a number of planetarium shows for the Creation Museum, including the popular “Created Cosmos.” He has authored a number of best-selling books on the topic of creation, including Taking Back Astronomy, Stargazer’s Guide to the Night Sky, the Ultimate Proof of Creation, Discerning Truth, and Understanding Genesis.

Dr. Lisle graduated from Ohio Wesleyan University where he double-majored in physics and astronomy and minored in mathematics. He then earned a master’s degree and a Ph.D. in astrophysics at the University of Colorado. Dr. Lisle specialized in solar astrophysics and has made scientific discoveries regarding the solar photosphere, including the detection of giant cell boundaries using the SOHO spacecraft. He also does theoretical research and has contributed to the field of general relativity.
