Writing

Willoughby, along with Jonathan Kane, T. Michael Keesey, Glenn Morton and James Comer, authored God's Word or Human Reason?,[12] a 2017 book detailing the relationship between religion and science, in which the authors argue that there is no need for a Christian lifestyle to be incompatible with scientific consensus. Many of the authors talk about their former creationist lifestyles and beliefs throughout the book.[13]
