World���s Largest and Smallest Dogs Meet���And Illustrate Biblical Truth

Last month, a dog ���playdate��� was in the news because the world���s tallest dog and the world���s shortest dog met for the first time. And, well, it was quite the contrast!

Reggie, the world���s tallest living dog, is a 3'4" Great Dane. Pearl, the world���s shortest living dog, is a 3.6" chihuahua. She���s the size of a dollar bill and is absolutely dwarfed by the gangly Reggie. Now, why am I reporting on this ���feel good��� dog story?

Well, it���s a great example of variety within a kind!

Yes, ���Science Is Good��� but Not the Way BioLogos Thinks

BioLogos is an organization that exists to try to convince Christians to add evolution and millions of years into the Bible. Recently they published ���An Open Letter to People of Faith About Science��� in which they announced their new ���Science is Good��� initiative. Now, I agree���science is good. Scientific discovery is a gift from our Creator. But when I say ���science is good,��� I don���t mean the same thing as BioLogos!

BioLogos begins their open letter by lamenting the growing distrust...

A Catastrophic Anniversary: 3 Lessons Mount St. Helens Still Teaches

Scientists knew it was only a matter of time. And on May 18, 1980, their predictions came true: Mount St. Helens, a geologically active volcano in Washington state, violently blew its top as steam spewed with the force of 20 megatons of TNT. The largest observed landslide in recorded history was immediately triggered, and a volcanic blast decimated 230 square miles in seconds. It was a catastrophe for life, property, and the pristine wilderness on the slopes of the mountain. And it still teache...

Kids Still Free in 2025

Once again, kids 10 and under receive free admission to the Creation Museum and Ark Encounter this year. It���s all part of our commitment to help families raise up godly offspring and be equipped to impact generations with the truth of God���s Word and the gospel.

Some families tell me they come to the Ark and Creation Museum every year because their children learn and understand more each time as they grow in spiritual maturity. Some tell me they come multiple times a year because their family...

Are Native American Histories Accurate?

You may not think, at first glance, that an article about the oral traditions of the Picuris Pueblo, a small tribal nation in New Mexico, would have anything to do with Answers in Genesis. But new genetic research into the Picuris Pueblo people confirms something very interesting���and ties in with new AiG research.

First, the story. The oral traditions of this tribal nation state that they descended from ancient North American ancestors, specifically those living in ancient pueblo sites in Nort...

Should Pastors Be Using AI to Write Sermons?

A video on the website claims you can just type a word (like ���forgiveness���) into the sermon builder tool and ���instantly have a sermon ready to preach��� and if you like the sermon ���copy it, paste it, you���re ready to preach.��� In other wo...

Is ���Side B��� Christianity Biblical?

Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them. (Ephesians 5:11)

The Bible commands us to ���take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness,��� which, in context, include sexual immorality���and yet many in the church are bending over backward to find creative ways to accommodate sexual immorality to ���lower the entry bar��� for unbelievers or the discipleship hardships for professing believers, especially those who identity as LGBTQ. And one of those ���creative��� ...
