The Garrison Podcast
The Garrison aims to equip believers to fulfil the Great Commission and to share the truths of Christianity with non-believers. I believe that the best way to achieve this goal is through my podcast, The Garrison Podcast. My podcast aims to explore common questions about Christianity more deeply and to inspire and educate as many people as possible with the good news of Christianity!

In this episode, I take a look at the common belief that science and faith aren't compatible. I define true, biblical faith, what the purpose of science is and how these two things can go hand in hand. I look at the origin of science, who founded it, and how science is often limited by philosophical views. Enjoy!

This episode is a little different to the norm. Instead of answering questions that people have about Christianity, or discussing a topic, I prepared a whole list of questions for Non-Christians to consider. I want to see how these can be answered from a Non-Christian perspective, and welcome anyone to try and provide answers!

In this episode, I look at 3 things that we need, to be an effective ambassador for Christ. 2 Corinthians 5:20 calls us 'Ambassadors', so we want to make sure we are being effective in this task that Jesus has given us!

On this week's episode of the Garrison, I interview the Christchurch speaker for Creation Ministries International, Mike Collins, on dinosaurs. Specifically, do dinosaurs contradict Christianity? Has there been blood found in dinosaur fossils and what are the implications if so? What about mass graveyards of fossils, do they agree or disagree with the Bible?
