Lisle has also analyzed [[film]]s and [[television]] programs in the genre of [[science fiction]]. He contends that such programs are heavily influenced by what he calls "evolutionary mythology." Such films, he said "show extra-terrestrial life forms as  having existed over billions of years. Many science fiction franchises seem to promote [[secular humanism]] quite heavily. And yet, despite all these anti-Christian themes, science fiction often portrays the Gospel of [[Jesus Christ]] in symbolic form." Lisle blames the inconsistency on the different worldviews of the Christian and pagan minds. He notes that unbelievers know [[God]] in their heart of hearts, but inconsistently suppress truth in unrighteousness.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.jasonlisle.com/2017/03/31/the-gospel-in-hollywood-part-2/|title=The Gospel in Hollywood, Part 2|publisher=Jasonlisle.com|date=March 31, 2017|accessdate=June 1, 2018}}</ref>

Lisle explains how Christians can win the hearts of non-believers though the creation debate:<br>
 +
<blockquote>
 +
 +
All unbelievers are made in God's image. As such, they know in their heart of hearts the biblical God. God has built into them the knowledge that they should be consistent, non-arbitrary, rational persons. ... The unbeliever must live in God's universe and therefore must accept God's presuppositions in order to function. The unbeliever might deny being made in God's image, but he cannot escape it.<ref>Jason Lisle, ''The Ultimate Proof of Creation: Resolving the origins debate''' (Green Forest, [[Arkansas]]: Master Books, 2009), p. 148.</ref></blockquote>

Lisle further argues that defenders of the Christian faith must detect arbitrariness in the secular worldview and follow a "Bible-first" approach to knowledge and reasoning, rather than the evolutionist's preferred "evidence-first" claim, for which no evidence exists.<ref>''The Ultimate Proof of Creation'', pp. 172-174.</ref>
