Evolution Observed in Just 30 Years?

Last week I wrote about a startling study that was supposed to illustrate powerful evidence for evolution by showing that elephants evolve into elephants. Well, I have another one for you this week that���s just as shocking���marine snails that evolved into . . . marine snails! (Okay, I am speaking tongue in cheek again!)

Here are the details: On a tiny rocky islet (a ���skerry���) off the coast of Sweden, lived a group of marine snails . . . until a toxic algal bloom killed the entire populatio...

The Bible���Is It True or Is It Truth? (And Does It Matter?)

I just had to sigh and shake my head when I read a recent article titled ���Is the Bible True? Or Is It Truth?��� The article pokes fun at those who read the Bible ���literally,��� specifically calling out the global flood account as ���pretty farfetched.��� But the reasons he gives for why ���the story of Noah is a tough nut to crack��� are the same skeptical objections we���ve addressed for years!

Here are the objections author Scott Pinsker brings up, followed by a short answer with links to ...

We���re So Grateful for Faithful Pastors

October is Pastor Appreciation Month���and I wanted to take the opportunity to say how grateful and appreciative we are of every single faithful pastor who serves his congregation by preaching the truth of God���s Word each week. If that���s you, please know how vital your role is and how thankful we are for your faithfulness.

One of the most common questions I am asked when speaking around the country or meeting guests at our attractions is ���Where can I find a church that stands on the author...

Does Biblical Inerrancy Necessitate Believing in a Young Earth?

Many pastors, Christian leaders, theologians, and seminary professors believe in biblical inerrancy���they affirm that God���s Word is without error, infallible, and authoritative. And yet many of these same Christians either add man���s word into Genesis when it comes to millions of years and/or evolution or they refuse to take a position on these topics. So does belief in biblical inerrancy necessitate belief in a young earth and a literal Genesis?

Well, Dr. Terry Mortenson, one of our speaker...

Astronaut Who Walked on Moon Visits Ark Encounter

What an honor it was to personally show General Charlie Duke, the tenth and youngest astronaut to walk on the moon (back in April 1972), and his family through the Ark Encounter last week.

Oh, I did ask him, ���What does the earth look like from the moon?��� He replied, ���A sphere spinning in space.��� So, no, the earth isn���t flat!

General Duke and his wife have a Christian ministry, teaching on marriage���and they speak all over the world. General Duke also speaks at various conferences about...

Elephants Are Evolving into . . . Elephants!

This week, I read of a shocking study���a supposed example of ���evolution in action.��� Brace yourself! Here we go: In the African nation of Mozambique, elephants are evolving, and they are turning into . . . elephants. Obviously, I say all that tongue in cheek, but I had to laugh when I saw an article titled ���Want Modern Proof of Evolution? Look at the Elephants of Mozambique.���

By the way, dogs turn into dogs and cats turn into cats, so we are not surprised that elephants turn into elephan...

Praise the Lord: 1,700 Impacted at Answers for Pastors

Our annual Answers for Pastors and Leaders conference at the Ark Encounter certainly has grown over the years. It was so thrilling last week to kick off this year���s event with a packed auditorium at our Answers Center. Praise the Lord for the 1,700 pastors, leaders, and pastor���s wives impacted with biblical truth over the three-day conference.

The event included incredible teaching and, for the first time ever, a special women���s only session. Enjoy these photos from the conference:

Exciting New Developments Planned for Creation Museum and Ark Encounter

I wrote an article recently for our Answers Insider newsletter where I talked about the legacy of my good friend Buddy Davis who went to his heavenly home in August this year. I wanted everyone to understand that even though he passed into the presence of the Lord, his earthly ministry continues on in various ways through Answers in Genesis, the Creation Museum, and the Ark Encounter. His ministry has not stopped���it will continue to impact generations to come. That���s a legacy we all want an...
