By Ken Ham The Ark Encounter has now been open for just over a year. So much has changed since this time last year. It’s actually evolved—in the better meaning of the word! We’ve welcomed over one million guests, added brand-new exhibits, put in two theater areas, expanded the grounds and Ararat Ridge Zoo, added spectacular zip lines, and so much more. But despite all the changes, some things haven’t changed between then and now. Thousands of Visitors On July 5, 2016, the day of our special ribbon-cutting ceremony, and again on July 7, 2016, the day …read more Source:

Genesis 1 says that God created the universe and all it contains in six 24-hour days. This account is not difficult to understand. Its grammatical structure clearly falls within the narrative genre; in other words, it is a historical account. How can Hebrew vocabulary and the doctrine of the Trinity confirm a literal interpretation of the creation week?

By Creation Moments Researchers at Stanford University surprised scientific colleagues several years ago when they proved that plants were not … well, vegetative. We think of plants as things that sit and grow, not as living things that can react to their environment. Now researchers at the University of Edinburgh, Scotland, have shown that plants not only react to the environment, they react with the same immediacy as animals. read more …read more Source: Creation Moments
By Ken Ham A recent article in The Federalist was titled “How Vacation Bible School Drove Millennials Away from Church.” While we wouldn’t agree with everything in the article, the author’s main point is one we’ve noticed—many VBS curricula are shallow and focus more on the outside trappings, like decorations, crafts, and music, instead of teaching the kids biblical content—and how to defend the Christian faith which is under attack all around us. The author writes that many VBS programs “sneak in the most minimalistic of teachings on Jesus (if you’re lucky) or ‘God’ generically understood.” He goes on to

By Creation Moments We are all familiar with the fact that the very tips of most plant roots have tiny hairs. These hairs seek out water and nourishment from the soil and absorb them for distribution in the plant. Few people beyond some biologists and chemists are aware that these delicate portions of some plants are able to produce a large variety of important medicines. Often, the hairy parts of plant roots are able to make medicines that even our best chemists and genetic engineers cannot make. read more …read more Source: Creation Moments
By Ken Ham With the July 7 one-year anniversary of the Ark Encounter opening, many media outlets have been reporting on the incredible economic impact this attraction has had on the area. Jamie S. Baker, the executive director of the Grant County Chamber of Commerce/Economic Development Authority and Tourist and Convention Commission, recently wrote an article about the impact of the Ark on the county over the last year. (This column is reprinted with permission from Grant County News and originally appeared in “Ark Encounter: One Year Later,” a supplement inserted in the Grant County News, July 6, 2017.) If

By Ken Ham The serious effects of teaching generations that they can reinterpret God’s Word—particularly in Genesis—or totally reject it are painfully evident in Americans’ views of the Bible. We’ve been saying for years that one consequence of this compromise will be an increasing rejection of the Bible as the literal Word of God and as our authority. And this is exactly what a new Gallup poll shows. Only 24% of Americans (including older Americans) believe the Bible is “the actual Word of God, and is to be taken literally, word for word” compared with 26% who view the Bible

Discussing her new book, Finding Truth: Five Principles for Unmasking Atheism, Secularism, and Other God Substitutes, Pearcey highlights contradictions of evolution’s claims regarding human reason. If Neo-Darwinian theory postulates that man’s knowledge is not necessarily true – simply a product of natural selection – how can it also claim that the idea of God is a mis-firing of the human brain?

By Ken Ham Two-thirds of American young people are walking away from the church by the time they reach college age, with very few returning. It’s a massive exodus from the church. Our national research indicated that one of the major reasons behind this exodus was a lack of apologetics training—many young people simply don’t know what the Bible teaches or how to defend what they believe. So, to help parents and churches address this problem, we developed Answers Bible Curriculum (ABC). ABC—A for apologetics, B for biblical authority, and C for chronological—is now a four-year Sunday school course that

By Creation Moments The Northwest Passage is, in many ways, the stuff of legend. It is the idea that there could be a shipping route around the North Coast of Canada. This would provide a much quicker route, than existing routes, for ships to get, for example, from Europe to India and China. For centuries, explorers have tried to find this route. For example, during Elizabethan times, English privateer Sir Martin Frobisher undertook three voyages to try to find it. read more …read more Source: Creation Moments
