From a Curious Teen to a Confident Voice in Creation Science

Born a Buckeye near Columbus, Ohio, grew up in public school where she got a solid education — but something was missing. The classroom instruction didn’t point to the Bible, and the lessons never once started with Scripture. Even as a teenager, Georgia knew she wanted more than just academics — she wanted truth grounded in God’s Word.

That desire led her to , a Christian college nestled in the heart of Ohio, where she graduated in 1994 with a degree in . It wasn’t just the labs and lectures that shaped her — it was the biblical worldview woven into every subject.

One Truth That Changed Everything

Years later, on a return visit to Cedarville’s campus, Georgia had a moment that would shape the rest of her career. She realized the truth that death didn’t exist before sin — a foundational biblical principle — and it struck her deeply. That idea, rooted in Scripture, turned her thinking upside down and lit a fire in her heart. If you start with the Bible, everything — from science to society — makes a whole lot more sense.

From the Lab to the Lens of Scripture

Today, Dr. Purdom serves as the Vice President of Educational Content at , where she’s not only teaching others but also defending the faith with a scientist’s eye and a believer’s heart. Each week, she co-hosts Answers News, a video podcast where current events and scientific discoveries are unpacked through the lens of Scripture. Whether she’s diving into debates about evolution or discussing the impact of artificial intelligence, she brings clarity by always starting with God’s Word.

Why She Believes What She Believes — and Helps Others Do the Same

Her work is about more than sharing facts — it’s about helping people understand why they believe what they believe. Georgia knows that the world throws a thousand messages at Christians every day, but her advice is simple and steady: Go back to the Bible. It speaks to every challenge we face, even the ones wrapped in modern-day tech and culture.

Recently, she sat down with the podcast to share her journey — how a curious young girl from Ohio became a leading voice in creation science. Her path hasn't always been easy, but it’s always been purposeful. Every step grounded in truth. Every message rooted in Scripture.

And if Georgia Purdom has learned anything along the way, it’s this: When you build your life on God’s Word, you never walk alone — and you’re always on solid ground.
