Some present this as a tough question, “Which came first, the chicken or the egg?” If you’ve listened to a few of my songs, you’ll know that I believe in creation, so my answer is quick and final.
God created plants and shrubs, trees and vines – some bearing fruit, some not. He created animals and fish and birds and reptiles and bugs – all with the ability to reproduce their own kind.

Let’s take a close look at all the evidence that’s steadily building God’s case. Now be a good egg and get cracking!
