Faith Chapel - Huntington

Historical Genesis: Evolution (S07, E03)

In this episode of the Faith Chapel Podcast, we explain evolutionary theory, the fossil record concerns (including the Cambrian Explosion), and the problem of life arising from non-life. Looking through the lens of Genesis, we then outline two Christian responses—intelligent design (old-earth) and young-earth creationism—then explain why God’s intentional creation best fits Scripture.

Historical Genesis: The Beginning and the age of the earth (S07, E02)

In the current season, we are exploring whether Genesis should be read as historical or allegorical and in this episode, we focus on the origins of the universe and the age of the Earth. The episode summarizes biblical passages that describe God as the creator, and traces how early church thinkers and modern theologians interpret Genesis 1–2. It surveys scientific evidence for a beginning (relativity, Hubble, the Big Bang) alongside young-earth arguments (literal 24‑hour days, Noah’s flood, genealogies) and old‑earth interpretations (day‑age, gap theory, geological and radiometric dating). The episode concludes by encouraging charitable conversation among Christians who hold different views on this non‑essential issue.

Historical Genesis: History versus Mythology (S07, E01)

Pastor Jason introduces Season 7 of the Faith Chapel Podcast, which explores whether Genesis should be read as historical or primarily as literary theology. He explains what Genesis is — an epic theological narrative and meditation literature — and what it is not: a scientific textbook or an exhaustive record of every detail. The episode surveys scholarly views and extra-biblical evidence for and against Genesis' historicity, highlights how the book teaches about God and human origins, and concludes with the host’s perspective that Genesis should largely be regarded as historical.   Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):  https://uppbeat.io/t/christopher-galovan/peace-be-with-you [https://track.pstmrk.it/3s/uppbeat.io%2Ft%2Fchristopher-galovan%2Fpeace-be-with-you/vZub/ElG9AQ/AQ/43033fd6-be21-496b-8a18-3a4a6ab33739/4/D-1xvEIHsh]  License code: LNG9ZI81ISNABPWI

1 Corinthians 15 – We Will Rise (season six, episode seven)

Pastor Jason finishes the resurrection series by unpacking 1 Corinthians 15 and the Gospel eyewitness accounts that prove Jesus rose bodily from the grave. Using examples from Matthew, Luke, and John, he shows how Jesus’ resurrection points to our future transformation into imperishable, eternal bodies. The episode ties doctrine to hope and practice—explaining that because Christ lives, death has been defeated, our grief is met with hope, and our faithful work for God is never in vain.    Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):  https://uppbeat.io/t/christopher-galovan/peace-be-with-you [https://track.pstmrk.it/3s/uppbeat.io%2Ft%2Fchristopher-galovan%2Fpeace-be-with-you/vZub/ElG9AQ/AQ/43033fd6-be21-496b-8a18-3a4a6ab33739/4/D-1xvEIHsh]  License code: LNG9ZI81ISNABPWI

1 Corinthians 15 – Glorified resurrection body (season six, episode six)

Pastor Jason continues Faith Chapel's resurrection series through 1 Corinthians 15, explaining how Paul contrasts the earthly body inherited from Adam with the glorious, spiritual body given through Christ. Using Scripture and the resurrection appearances of Jesus, he shows that believers will be transformed and raised to an eternal, glorified state. The episode also applies this hope practically, urging listeners to invest time in spiritual disciplines and faithful living as preparation for eternity, while reminding us that salvation is a gift of grace.   Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):  https://uppbeat.io/t/christopher-galovan/peace-be-with-you [https://track.pstmrk.it/3s/uppbeat.io%2Ft%2Fchristopher-galovan%2Fpeace-be-with-you/vZub/ElG9AQ/AQ/43033fd6-be21-496b-8a18-3a4a6ab33739/4/D-1xvEIHsh]  License code: LNG9ZI81ISNABPWI
