By Ken Ham The hills are alive with the sound of music—the hills of Williamstown, Kentucky, anyway! In addition to daily concerts with our phenomenal resident artists of TrueSong, we have two major music events happening this summer at the Ark Encounter: Faith Country Music Festival, June 16–18, 2022, and 40 Days and 40 Nights of Gospel Music, August 2–September 10, 2022. And both events are free with general admission! Faith Country Music Festival features at least five different artists performing each day (that’s 15 total!) on our outdoor stage and a headline event in the Answers Center, our 2,500-seat

Evolutionary scientists recently determined that seafloor spreading has been slowing down.1 And they are not exactly sure of the reason. However, this is no surprise to Flood geologists. It’s exactly what we predicted.2,3,4 Scientists from Brown University and University of California, Santa Barbara examined the spreading rates at 18 different ocean ridges.1 Studying the magnetic seafloor reco… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Ken Ham According to a popular evolutionary story, 66 million years ago an asteroid hit earth, forming a massive crater off the coast of Mexico and starting a chain of events including acid rain, massive wildfires, earthquakes, and tsunamis that eventually caused the extinction of the dinosaurs. And scientists may now have discovered bits of this asteroid, encased in amber. All of these findings point to a massive catastrophe—but what was the catastrophe? In yet-to-be-published research (so these claims have not undergone peer-review yet), researchers claim they’ve discovered minuscule bits of asteroid that were trapped in sticky tree sap

By Ken Ham Join us October 4–6, 2022, for a powerful three-day conference at the Ark Encounter in Williamstown, Kentucky (south of Cincinnati), “A Church & Culture in Crisis.” Prepare to discover why our culture is in chaos, why the church is conflicted, and what we can do to boldly stand for truth in the church and in the culture. It’s going to be a wonderful time of equipping pastors, Christian leaders, and laypeople in the church with answers to what’s happening in our world and in the church—and what we can do about it. It’s such an important conference

By Michael Denton This ID the Future continues Miracle of Man author Michael Denton’s conversation with host Eric Anderson about his latest book. The focus of this capstone work in his Privileged Species series is, as the subtitle explains, The Fine-Tuning of Nature for Human Existence. Here Denton and Anderson dive deeper into the book’s argument that science has uncovered multiple ensembles of fitness for creatures much like ourselves—land-going, airbreathing, intelligent bipeds capable of controlling fire and developing new technologies. In other words, it’s not just a handful of things about nature that appear fine tuned for our existence. It’s

By David Galloway Today’s ID the Future brings onto the show Scottish physician David Galloway, author of the recent book Design Dissected and former president of Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow. In his conversation with guest host and fellow physician/author Geoffrey Simmons, Galloway describes how he found himself in the evolution/design controversy and eventually presented his doubts about Darwin to the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow. In this first half of a two-part conversation, Galloway and Simmons briefly summarize the content of Design Dissected, and Galloway homes in on one section in particular where

Dragonflies (order Odonata) are perhaps one of the most studied and appreciated insects in the world today. Like the hummingbird, the dragonfly is a master in the art of flight.

By Ken Ham Well it’s hard to believe, but it’s been 15 years today since the Creation Museum opened. The Lord has certainly blessed the ministry of Answers in Genesis for stepping out in faith to open a museum dedicated to showing the truth of God’s Word starting from the very first verse. The Creation Museum officially opened to the public on May 28, 2007, with the ribbon-cutting ceremony two days prior on May 26 (see photo below). A May 26, 2007, ribbon-cutting ceremony was attended by AiG staff and supporters, plus the world’s media. Left to right: Ken …read

By Ken Ham Answers in Genesis has always focused on offering high-quality resources to equip the church. We have hundreds of such resources that you will find helpful—but I do have some favorites. I’ve compiled a list of my (and my wife, Mally’s) top 10 (plus a few) favorite resources available in Ark Edition Playing Cards These beautiful Ark Edition Playing Cards feature Noah and his family. While I like to use these cards when playing cribbage, I especially love their design. And if you don’t play cribbage, you can always use these cards for other games, such as go

On days one through five of the creation week, God developed and populated the originally empty (“without form and void”1) earth introduced in Genesis 1:2. He did so with great precision and tact to form a magnificent backdrop on which to place His crowning creative achievement, humankind. Not only did God save the best for last, but He created humans distinctly different from animals. Human life was segregated in distinct … More… …read more Source: icr.org
By William A. Dembski On this ID the Future intelligent design pioneer William Dembski unpacks one of his chapters in The Comprehensive Guide to Science and Faith: Exploring the Ultimate Questions about Life and the Cosmos, which Dembski co-edited with Joseph Holden and episode host Casey Luskin. The chapter, “Why Intelligent Design Matters,” focuses on ID’s cultural implications. Dembski notes that atheists use mindless evolution to provide a God-free explanation for life and the universe. Intelligent design checks that move, showing that blind material processes couldn’t have created many things in nature, much less the cosmos itself. Intelligent design is

By Ken Ham Did you know that everyone wears a pair of glasses? I’m not talking about glasses to see long distance or close up. I’m talking about another set of glasses. And ultimately, these glasses that everyone wears have one of two programs! I was thinking about this as I was watching the new sign go up on our Virtual Reality Experience building at the Ark Encounter. Inside this building, we have a high-tech virtual reality ride. People put on our special virtual reality glasses that are programmed to enable them to go back in time and see a

By Ken Ham A nearly complete ichthyosaur skeleton that was discovered in 2009 was also covered in a news article recently. It (and another partial fossil discovered in 1926) were described in the April 7 edition of the journal PeerJ. Both fossils were found in the Solnhofen limestone of southern Germany in early Tithonian (Late Jurassic) sedimentary layers. What grabbed my attention was the mention of soft tissue and blubber in a supposedly 150-million-year-old fossil. Now unlike soft tissue finds in T. rex and hadrosaurs, where the tissue was soft and viable, this “soft tissue” has been replaced by the

By Ken Ham Does your church put on a Vacation Bible School program each summer? If so (or if you are considering starting this outreach next year), how would you like to win a $1,000 shopping spree for VBS materials? That shopping spree is just part of the grand prize for our exciting 2023 VBS giveaway as we prepare to reveal the theme for our next Answers VBS program. It’s not “fluffy” moralistic teaching for kids—it’s meat from God’s Word that equips kids to think biblically and answers the questions of our day. I can’t share what the theme is

This event sold out very quickly, so we added extra dates—which also sold out! Families were so excited for this unique experience

By Ken Ham A recent news item caught my eye. It was describing a genetic study that attempted to correlate dog breeds’ behavior with their genetics. About 50% of the dogs were known or inferred purebreds, and the others were “mutts.” Some of the results were pretty much expected for certain breeds, but many showed little correlation. For example, the dogs that showed the highest correlation between genetics and the ability to understand human speech and follow commands (termed biddability) were Belgian shepherds and border collies (a herding dog) and the Hungarian Viszla (a hunting dog). Owners were also asked
