By John G. West On this episode of ID the Future, hear the second half of Discovery Institute’s John West’s talk given at the 2020 Dallas Conference on Science and Faith, on how Darwinism has corroded Western culture. In this portion he examines the morally poisoning effects of Darwinism on marriage, sexual ethics, and religion, such that virtually anything can be defended as OK, and no particular culture’s ethic is to be preferred over another. Humankind’s spiritual purpose has likewise been eroded. Yet West closes with hope: science in our generation is discovering more and more signs of intelligent design

By Ken Ham The coronavirus crisis has changed so many things, including many churches’ plans for Vacation Bible School this summer. Instead of being able to host a traditional VBS outreach, many churches are having to seek out other ways to minister to their congregations and communities. We believe VBS is important for sharing the gospel and training children up in God’s Word, so we’re offering one of our previous VBS programs, Download the IncrediWorld VBS at AnswersVBS.com/free. We’ve adapted IncrediWorld so families can do VBS at home with their children or even host a small backyard VBS for neighbors

By Ken Ham If I asked you “Who is God?” what would you say? Well, if you asked the average American 30 years ago, nearly three-quarters would define God according to a basic biblical definition. But according to a new Barna survey, barely half today would define God that way (and even many of that half are confused!). It isn’t that most Americans have moved to a New Age view of God (10% hold that belief), some kind of polytheistic view (a mere 4% hold to that view), or even atheistic beliefs (only 6% of Americans hold a traditionally atheistic

By Ken Ham We are living in strange times right now and we need to speak biblical truth to ourselves to strengthen and encourage our hearts in the midst of circumstances that may be overwhelming from a human perspective. And there’s someone else who also needs this biblical truth—your children!

Avery Foley serves on our staff as a writer and speaker (you may recognize her from Answers News). Here is her devotional message with three biblical truths

By Ken Ham We’re thankful for other like-minded ministries that use their platforms to help share Answers in Genesis’ message of the truth of God’s Word and the gospel with others. Recently we noticed that Bott Radio Network, a national Christian network of over 100 radio stations, posted my devotional “Should We Lose Sleep Over the Coronavirus” to their website for others to see. We appreciate them sharing it with others! It’s such a blessing when God’s people can use ministries that complement each other for the proclamation of God’s Word and the gospel.

By Ken Ham “Mother God, you have fed us with the nourishment of your spiritual food. Raise us up into salvation and rid us of our bitterness, so that we may share the sweetness of your holy word with all the world.” That was the prayer recently posted to the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America’s (ECLA) Twitter account. God a “she”? Our Creator as “Mother God”? Now, “God is spirit” (John 4:24), and so he doesn’t have a body or a gender in the sense that we, as humans made in God’s image, do. However, throughout Scripture, God consistently refers
