By Ken Ham I’ve had to deal with my share of critics in over 30 years of ministry! Often times I never know what I am going to be asked. And these can be stressful situations dealing with attacks on the authority of the Bible. How prepared are you for such attacks? We have a brand new book out that will help you learn how to deflect these hostile critics’ claims. Consider for a moment the last time that you struggled to provide a solid biblical answer to a newspaper, blog, debate board, or maybe a comment on YouTube or

Listen Now. part 1 On this episode of ID the Future, Senior Fellow Dr. David Berlinski and Casey Luskin discuss Steven Pinker’s argument from his recent book The Better Angels of Our Nature that human nature is improving. Tune in to this first segment as Dr. Berlinski examines statistical evidence used in support of Pinker’s argument and explains why he has doubts about Pinker’s claim that violence is on the decline.
By Ken Ham I wrote yesterday about the Duggar family, stars of TLC’s 19 Kids and Counting, and their visit to the Creation Museum. During their tour of the museum and gardens one of the older girls, Jessa, posted some pictures from the Creation Museum on Instagram that have quickly attracted a lot of attention, including being featured in a US Magazine article. Here is a photo Jessa posted of an exhibit inside the museum: Her caption read, If there really was a worldwide flood (as the Bible speaks of), what would the evidence be? Billions of dead things buried

By Ken Ham In February 2015 Bill Nye will be making his first speaking tour of my home country Australia to “foster a scientifically literate society, making science entertaining and accessible.” According to the group hosting Mr. Nye, Think Inc. . . . is hosting Bill Nye the Science Guy to promote the sciences, and prompt thought in evolution among young adults. As Bill Nye says: “We need scientifically literate voters and taxpayers for the future. We need . . . engineers that can build stuff, solve problems.” Now, the website describes the event as trying to “prompt thought in

By Ken Ham If you live in the area of Washington, DC, make sure you register for an event coming to a church nearby. On Saturday, October 18, I will be giving two presentations and a Q & A session at Severn Christian Church in Maryland. I don’t often get the opportunity to speak in this area, so please help spread the word. My speaking topics will cover such subjects as the six days of creation, age of the earth, defending the Christian faith, and how to present the gospel in this very secular age. There will also be a

By Creation Moments In the fall the plants and trees of much of the Earth’s northern hemisphere prepare for winter. Flowers lose their petals, and the leaves fall from trees as the air begins to become cooler. But there is far more to this change in the plants than simply a response to lower temperatures. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments
“Excellent reviews for it on Amazon where it can be purchased in Kindle, paperback or hardback format” Admin By Ken Ham Todd Friel is a dear friend to me and to our ministry here at Answers in Genesis. I am a fan of his work and appreciate his bold stance regarding the authority and inerrancy of Scripture. Todd recently released a book titled Jesus Unmasked: The Truth Will Shock You, published by New Leaf Press. NLP is a publishing extension of New Leaf Publishing Group, as is Master Books, my exclusive publisher. I appreciate the work of New Leaf Publishing

By Ken Ham by Ken Ham and Bodie Hodge Well, it’s been over seven months since my historic debate with Bill Nye “the Science Guy.” Our conservative estimate is that upwards of 15 million people have now seen this widely recognized debate. And now we have an exciting announcement to make. Popular AiG speaker and author Bodie Hodge (my son-in-law) and I have written what we believe is a unique and powerful book about the debate—not just dealing with the content of the debaters, but detailing behind the scenes and personal information. We believe this publication (estimated to be …read

By Ken Ham Progressive creationist Dr. Hugh Ross of Reasons to Believe recently appeared on Canadian talk show 100 Huntley Street to promote his newest book, Navigating Genesis: A Scientist’s Journey Through Genesis 1–11. Hugh Ross believes God created the universe gradually over six overlapping time periods only figuratively called “days,” spread over billions of years since the supposed big bang. He claims biblical support for his unbiblical point of view by misreading many Bible passages. Hugh Ross twists the Bible to fit man’s fallible opinions about origins, embracing cosmological evolution and geological evolution. While he does not accept biological

By Ken Ham Just a thank you . . . for organising an excellent Mega conference this weekend. My wife and I were speechless by the end of the three days and left very much convicted and encouraged. The above was in an email sent to our office after the very successful and extremely well attended Mega Conference in the UK this past Thursday evening through Saturday evening. Over 1500 people, including over 100 pastors registered for the event. By far the majority stayed for the entire time. People were becoming more and more enthused with all they were hearing

By Ken Ham I have been greatly burdened hearing the news that is coming out of my homeland of Australia. Taking on the language of Bill Nye’s YouTube video, “Creationism Is Not Appropriate for Children,” Greens politician John Kaye is arguing that homeschooled children learning young-earth creation will grow up with “a very loose grip on the scientific process.” The Sydney Morning Herald newspaper further wrote that Kaye claims, “a cohort of homeschooled children would not be able to tell the difference between religious belief and scientific theory. ‘Their ignorance will impose costs not only on themselves …read more Read

By Ken Ham One of the most common questions I get asked is, “Why is there death and suffering?” Believers and unbelievers alike look around the world and see all the death, suffering, disease, and pain and question the existence of a good God as the Creator of such a world. This question can only be answered if we correctly understand the origin of death and suffering as given in Genesis. The Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby recently revealed that he has moments when “he struggles with doubt about the existence of God.” What causes the Archbishop to doubt …read

By Ken Ham Stephen King, a popular fiction author of thrillers and horror stories, declared in a recent interview with NPR that, “If you say, well, OK, I don’t believe in God, there’s no evidence of God, then you’re missing the stars in the sky, and you’re missing the sunrises and sunsets, and you’re missing the fact that bees pollinate all these crops and keep us alive and the way that everything seems to work together at the same time. Everything is sort of built in a way that to me suggests intelligent design.” When Mr. King looks at nature

By Creation Moments The familiar little insect known as the water boatman is a marvel of engineering design. About an inch long, it swims on its back on the surface of the pond using two of its legs that are extra long and have little paddles on the end, just like the oars of a boat. Anyone who has tried swimming on his back knows how difficult it is to see where he is going, but not the water boatman. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments

Yes, the female anglerfish lives deep down where it is cold and dark, and it has a six-inch-long fishing pole fixed to its top lip with a little orange light on the end. When the angler is not fishing, the rod fits into a groove on the top of its head. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments

By Ken Ham The Obama administration’s Secretary of State John Kerry, in a recent speech installing America’s new “Special Representative to Muslim Communities,” invoked belief in the biblical creation account from the book of Genesis as his justification for aggressive policies to control alleged man-made climate change: Our fates are inextricably linked on the environment. For many of us, respect for God’s creation also translates into a duty to protect and sustain His first creation: Earth, the planet. Before God created man, He created Heavens and Earth. Confronting climate change is, in the long run, one of the greatest challenges

By Ken Ham In a recent blog post I warned parents of the growing compromise on biblical authority in many Christian colleges. Parents will often spend thousands of dollars trying to ensure their child receives a solid, godly education only to send them to a school that is rife with compromise. These schools actively discredit Scripture, undermine its authority and, tragically, many students are led away from their faith in Christ because of it! That’s why we have College Expo 2014. It’s a gathering of Bible-affirming Christian colleges, all of whom have signed our statement of faith and hold to
