Genesis Science Report with David RivesS02 Ep048 | Extinction Warnings, Radioactive Dogs, and AI Singularity FearsIn Episode 48 of The Genesis Science Report, David opens with breathtaking new images of the sun’s poles—captured for the first time in history by NASA and the European Space Agency. These revolutionary photos reveal intricate magnetic activity and cycles of energy that scientists have never seen before. David connects these discoveries to Scripture, reminding us that the sun has always declared the glory of its Maker and that even our most advanced technology is only now catching up to the design God built into creation.
Next, author and creation speaker Brian Young joins the show to d...

2024-10-1825 minEchoes of HistoryThe Industrial Revolution: The Birth Of Modern LondonThe Industrial Revolution began in Britain in the late 18th century, giving birth to an era that has changed world history. The period was characterised by rapid economic, social and technological growth. Marked by innovation and inventions like the steam engine, spinning jenny and telephone, industrialisation also saw a rise in urbanisation, the factory system, poverty and the exploitation of a new urban working class. This in turn led to social and political movements such as communism. Matt Lewis and Tom Furber from The London Archives provide an overview of how the Industrial Revolution came about a...

Movie Deputy REVIEWSBeing Robin (2022)Being Robin is an emotional experience. Robin Williams was easily one of the greatest comedians of his time and towards the end, he was not only suffering a debilitating illness but he was losing who he was. A quote from the film was that he was losing himself before we did and there is nothing that sums it up better than that.
What we experience here though is much more than that, this is a man who lives and breathes comedy, along that journey he lost himself in substances. In an effort to regain any semblance of...
