By Ken Ham We were thrilled to be able to sponsor the National Day of Prayer Leadership Summit, which met October 29–30, 2018, at Cross Church in Rogers, Arkansas. The gathering included the 8 regional directors for the US, as well as representatives from all 50 states. The mission of the National Day of Prayer leadership is to mobilize unified public prayer in America in every town, every city, and every county. The Leadership Summit was characterized by heart-felt worship, gospel-centered preaching, and sincere prayer on behalf of the nation. We’re thankful we were able to be there with a

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, host Mike Keas begins a conversation with philosopher J. P. Moreland about Moreland’s new book Scientism and Secularism: Learning to Respond to a Dangerous Ideology. Moreland explains scientism as the belief that only the hard sciences can provide any reliably true knowledge. “It’s in the drinking water,” he says, but it’s also self-refuting, and therefore irrational — and very damaging besides.

By Ken Ham Next week, the Tuesday after Thanksgiving Day is recognized as “Giving Tuesday” here in America. After recognizing all the blessings we have, and thanking God for them, next Tuesday is an opportunity to be purposeful in blessing others. And I wanted to take the time to highlight one way that many people have blessed us here at Answers in Genesis—by volunteering their time and talents! Each year, dozens of people—sometimes individually, as a couples or families, with a church group, youth team, or school class—come to the Creation Museum and Ark Encounter to volunteer with us. And,

By Ken Ham During Easter week atheists are gathering in Cincinnati, OH—in the backyard of the Creation Museum and Ark Encounter—for their national convention. That same week (April 17–21, 2019) we’re hosting our own conference at the brand-new Answers Center at the Ark Encounter—Answering Atheists, and one of our special guest speakers is well-known evangelist, Ray Comfort (who loves to engage atheists). And we’re encouraging believers and atheists alike, in fact everyone, to attend. We will cover a large range of topics: biblical, scientific, philosophical, etc. This five-day conference (culminating in a sunrise service Easter morning) will answer …read more

By Sarah Chaffee This episode of ID the Future features a conversation between physicist Brian Miller and biologist Ray Bohlin and about their recent speaking tour in South Africa, where they made a case for intelligent design. The pair talk about the open reception they received from sympathizers and skeptics alike. South Africa, they say, is less infused with materialistic philosophy than is Europe or America’s research universities. This means an open door for ID. However, it’s a door that threatens to close, they warn. Listen in to learn more. Your browser does not support playing Audio, please upgrade your

Today marks the one hundredth anniversary of the end of World War 1. Even in the horror of war, important lessons can be learnt about the truth of Genesis.
By Ken Ham A minister in the United Church, a theologically liberal denomination in Canada, has reached a settlement with the denomination that allows her to continue pastoring despite her professed atheism. The reason? A desire by the denomination to “dance” between their core values of faith and inclusiveness. The leader of that denomination said of the church’s core values of “faith in God and inclusiveness”: The dance between these core values, how they interact with and inform each other, is one that we continue to explore as followers of Jesus and children of the creator… As a Christian church,

By Ken Ham Since the Ark Encounter opened in July 2016, we’ve been expanding, hiring new staff, and even refurbishing some areas to accommodate the massive numbers of people we’ve been seeing on a daily basis. But apparently we’ve been doing all of this for imaginary people because, according to a reporter—who (to our knowledge) didn’t reach out to anyone from Answers in Genesis, any local businesses, or tourist bureaus, but instead relied on “data” from an anti-Ark activist—very few people are coming! The reporter claims we’re struggling with attendance (we’re not!; we see thousands daily). In response to this

We will be responding to his video on Answers News November 19, 2018, starting at 2 p.m. on my facebook page and the AiG YouTube channel. We hope you are able to join us. 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

My parents took me to church and Sunday school, but we rarely talked about God. I loved to read, but the science books contradicted the Bible. I read of a universe that was billions of years old and of dinosaurs that supposedly lived many millions of years ago. I read of human descent from apes. The geology books denied Noah’s Flood. Without evidence, I concluded the Bible could not be true, and I drifted from God. I double-majored in math and physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), studied theoretical math for three years, and got a law

By Sarah Chaffee This episode of ID the Future features the second half of philosopher of science Stephen Meyer’s recent appearance on the Dennis Prager Show. Meyer and Prager discuss some of the critics of intelligent design who tie themselves in knots: Theistic evolutionists who claim life arose through a completely undirected process directed by God, and materialists who insist on a universe from “nothing,” but where “nothing” means something.

It’s all about forgetting who we are as human beings. Please consider donating to support the IDTF Podcast.

By Ken Ham Many Christian colleges and institutions—indeed, Christians themselves—stand at a crossroads right now. They can either choose to cave to intense cultural pressure and embrace LGBT ideology at the expense of biblical truth and obedience to God and his Word (as this article attempts to get them to do) or they can choose to stand strong, believing God’s Word over the growing cultural clamor and landslide of personal narrative that urges them to be “inclusive,” “loving,” and “tolerant” of what the Bible clearly says are sinful practices and lifestyles. God’s Word gives us direction on how to think
