The issue of distant starlight and time has been a thorny one for biblical creationists for some time. The question: 'How do we fit approximately 14 billion years of processes we see in the universe, with a biblical age of the earth in the thousands of years? Also a major problem for Christians has been whether or not we should accept the Genesis historical account of Creation, or if we should try to make Genesis fit with the Big-Bang theory?

Distant Starlight vs Biblical Young Earth
The Bible: Stars were created on the 4th day - BUT distant light from stars seems to prove the earth and our universe were created billions of years ago. Is this a contradiction?

A Special Earth in a Special Universe - Creation Ministry Intl
DVD | Stream Online (Buy/Rent) | 44 min
Did the universe form randomly in a big bang, or is it the work of a Designer? This talk discusses many ways in which the Earth, solar system, and cosmos are precisely fine-tuned for life, at all scales. This implies a Fine-Tuner. Secular thinkers try to avoid this conclusion which forces them to embrace models with absurd implications (the multiverse hypothesis and the alien simulation hypothesis). This exposes the secular viewpoint as unscientific. The cosmos is not the result of natural processes; it plainly shows the handiwork of our wonderful Creator, as stated in Romans chapter 1.Astronomy 3 DVD Combo - Answers in Genesis

If the heavens and Earth were created merely thousands of years ago, how can we see stars and galaxies that are so far away as it seems their light would need millions or even billions of years to reach us? This talk discusses five potential solutions to this question currently being discussed within the creation community. It also provides several answers to give to skeptics, including the fact that the Big Bang model has a fatal ‘light travel time’ problem of its own. The vastness of the cosmos does not disprove the Bible—instead, it supports the glory of our Creator.Astronomy Series - What You Aren’t being Told About Astronomy - Creation Ministry Intl

DVD | 55 min
For the first time, two of the world’s leading creationist cosmologists share the same stage and discuss each other’s models that seek to explain how distant starlight, allegedly millions of light years away, could reach the earth within a 6,000 year-old Creation. The answers appeal to understandable, known science that is also revealing that the secular cosmological models of the big bang is increasingly becoming untenable. It’s an exciting time for creationist cosmology.The Distant Starlight Dilemma? - Light Years are not a Problem for a Recent Creation - Creation Ministry Intl

This episode introduces the entire series about origins and the two competing worldviews; the biblical and a naturalistic worldviews. The experts address several scientific challenges to the Big Bang, but also focus on the naturalistic view as a philosophy rather than just data. Finally, the experts focus on the implications and human response to each worldview. A simple Gospel message is shared and viewers are encouraged to choose the Biblical worldview.Challenges to the Big Bang (Episode 2)

This episode introduces scientific challenges to the Big Bang theory. The experts address the suggestion by Christians that God could have used the Big Bang and why there are many reasons to reject that idea. They finish off the episode by talking about why the Biblical model works better with the evidence and how we can reconcile science with the Bible.
