By Ken Ham I recently had the pleasure of being back in San Jose, California, during a beautiful fall weekend, to speak at Calvary Chapel San Jose. I did sessions for everyone Sunday morning, followed, the next day, by special sessions for children and teens in the morning with another session in the evening for a general audience. Between Sunday morning and Monday night we had over 2,000 people in attendance as well as 1,000 students Monday morning! And they were so hungry and excited to learn from God’s Word. I’ve spoken all over the country and found that those

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, host Robert Crowther interviews Sarah Chaffee, Program Director for Education and Public Policy at Discovery Institute’s Center for Science and Culture. With long experience in formal debate, as a student and beyond student years, Chaffee explains how defending views strengthens students’ education.

By Ken Ham What’s in your library? October is Church Library Month, a good time to consider what’s in your church’s library and perhaps add some Answers in Genesis apologetics resources for kids, teens, and adults. These books and DVDs will help equip your church to stand boldly on the authority of God’s Word, answering the skeptical questions of our day and age. But what should you plan on purchasing for your library? Well, if you look through the library and can’t find any Answers in Genesis resources, consider starting with the basics: The New Answers Books Vol. 1, 2,

By Ken Ham In just a few days I am headed to Ireland to partner with Answers in Genesis—UK for a two-day conference to equip and challenge believers to stand on the authority of the Word of God. Just recently Ireland legalized same-sex “marriage” and abortion—examples of the growing secularization of that nation. It’s a reminder that believers there need to be equipped to boldly proclaim the truth of God’s Word, even when it’s not popular. We will clearly show how these issues regarding Genesis impact how we view the rest of God’s Word, the gospel, the sanctity of life,

By Ken Ham How do we know the Bible is true? Well, ultimately, we know it must be true because it claims to be the Word of God (2 Timothy 3:16) and God cannot lie (Titus 1:2). But Christians don’t have a blind faith in the Bible and its teachings (atheists have a blind faith that life arose by natural processes, which goes against observational science). There’s evidence that confirms the Bible’s claim that it is indeed the revealed Word of God and true in all it says. Here are just three separate lines of evidence that confirm what the

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, Tom Gilson reviews J.P. Moreland’s new book Scientism and Secularism: Learning to Respond to a Dangerous Ideology. Moreland’s book explains scientism as irrational, self-refuting, and contradictory to crucial human and spiritual knowledge — yet it hangs over and around all of us like the air we breathe. And because it’s everywhere you turn, Moreland argues, it’s vital that we learn to recognize and respond to it. This review first appeared in print at The Stream, where Gilson is a senior editor.

By Ken Ham In theory, science is about free inquiry and challenging long-held assumptions in a search for the truth. In practice, it’s often driven by unproven assumptions, faulty frameworks, and political correctness. A recent letter in the Guardian (a UK publication), signed by over 100 academics in a vast range of scientific disciplines, expresses their concern over the “suppression of proper academic analysis and discussion of the social phenomenon of transgenderism.” The letter expresses the concerns these academics have about scientific freedom in research, particularly regarding the issue of gender. They claim members of their group have faced harassment

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, Dr. Michael Denton talks with host Sarah Chaffee about his new book Children of Light: The Astonishing Properties of Sunlight That Make Us Possible. Dr. Denton speaks of the properties of both light and water: From photosynthesis to metabolism to circulation, even from plate tectonics to the hydrologic cycle, both have exactly what it takes — in “amazingly fortuitous” ways — to make complex organic life possible; showing once again that the world is fine-tuned by a designing intelligence.

By Ken Ham Some encouraging news regarding religious freedom came out of Atlanta last week. The former Fire Chief of the city, Kelvin Cochran was terminated from his position in 2014 after writing a devotional book for a Christian men’s Bible study. In that book, written mainly about being a godly father and husband, Cochran mentioned biblical marriage and sexuality in a couple of pages and this was the reason that the Mayor of Atlanta put him on a 30-day suspension and ordered him to undergo sensitivity training. Even after an internal investigation found that Chief Cochran had never discriminated

Why has the theory persisted? What weaknesses threaten its existence in the 21st century?As Berlinski puts it: “…applying Darwinian principles to problems of this level of complexity is like putting a Band-Aid on a wound caused by an atomic weapon. It’s just not going to work.” Listen in as Berlinski and Denton explain why the Darwinian mechanism is being widely questioned as a viable theory of the origin and development

By Ken Ham Recently the popular Catholic political blogger Matt Walsh made a fairly lengthy video explaining why he was not a young-earth creationist and why he thinks young-earth creationists are a stumbling block to the faith of many people. The video is filled with strawman fallacies, misunderstandings, and mischaracterizations of what creationists actually believe. After watching the video, I was left wondering if he had even read any of our literature discussing the age of the earth. Walsh’s main points were that the days in Genesis could not be twenty-four hours and that science has proved the earth is

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, Dr. Winston Ewert continues unpacking his new hypothesis challenging Darwin’s tree of life. Ewert is a software engineer, and his new model is inspired by the coder strategy of repurposing existing code, called modules, for different projects. Moreover, some of these modules depend on other modules, meaning you can generate a dependency graph to better understand the similarities and differences among software programs that share modules. Ewert argues that a dependency graph model better explains the pattern of similarities and differences in the history of life, better than a model
