Construction Update: Volunteers Clear Out New AiG Headquarters

Volunteers are a huge part of the Answers in Genesis ministry���we are so thankful for the many individuals, families, and groups (thousands of people over the years) who come and serve at the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum or with other aspects of the Answers in Genesis ministry. Their work is so vital and such a blessing to us! Check out what a recent group of volunteers accomplished.

The photos below show part of a group from a church in Starkville, Mississippi. They helped clean and move ...

Behind the Scenes: Wonder Junction Photoshoot

Can you imagine organizing a photo shoot with 64 children? Well, let me show you what that looks like from behind the scenes!

What was this photo shoot for? Well, the ministry of Answers in Genesis produces what I believe is the most powerful VBS program in the world. More and more churches are changing over to Answers VBS, a curriculum with real biblical ���meat��� (not just shallow, entertaining ���fluff and stuff���), apologetics, biblical worldview, Bible memorization, great music, science e...

Neanderthals ���Didn���t Truly Go Extinct���

Neanderthals were fully human descendants of Adam and Eve, made in God���s image���just as we are. That���s been the creationist position on Neanderthals for decades���and modern science just keeps confirming exactly what we���d expect starting with God���s Word, including in yet another new study.

One scientist shares that this new study ���really highlights that what we think as a separate Neanderthal lineage really was more interconnected with our ancestors.��� So much so that they argue that...

Biden: ���More Children . . . Die of a Gunshot Wound than Any Other Reason���

Recently US President Joe Biden claimed that ���more children in America die of a gunshot wound than any other reason, that���s stunning and that is sick.��� He said something similar during the recent debate with former President Donald Trump. Is Joe Biden correct?

Abortion, the murder of children in their mother���s wombs (child sacrifice), which Joe Biden has aggressively promoted, is the leading cause of death of children in the US.

No. Abortion, the murder of children in their mother���s wom...

Should We Be Suspicious?

Should we be suspicious about man���s word related to dinosaurs and their origins?

Well, first consider this: we know God���s Word is true and accurate about every topic it discusses. Because we know this, we are not suspicious about what Scripture teaches. We do need to make sure we are reading God���s Word in context, keeping in mind the type of literature being used in each passage and the rules of the original language���s grammar.

When we take God���s Word as written, we know that birds were...

Study: Life Evolved When Earth ���Was Still Practically a Newborn���

Even the ���simplest��� forms of life are hugely complex. After decades of research, scientists have abysmally failed at creating anything even close to life (and not for lack of trying!). They can���t even manage to get the building blocks of life to all spontaneously form, let alone life itself (and even if they did, all that shows is that life needs an intelligent designer). And yet a new study says life emerged just 300 million years after earth���s formation!

According to this study, in jus...

Ministry Update: Please Pray for Buddy and Kay Davis

Buddy Davis and his wife, Kay, have been involved with the Answers in Genesis ministry for a long time���since before the Creation Museum opened. They have both contributed so much to this ministry, from life-size dinosaur sculptures, to music, to children���s programming, and so much more. And we wanted to celebrate and thank them for all they���ve done by hosting a special evening at the Creation Museum with staff families and supporters.

You can enjoy this short recap video highlighting that ...

WOW! Answers VBS Churches Raise 14 Million Meals for Children���s Hunger Fund

All around the world, children and families face hunger and food insecurity, not knowing where their next meal will come from. Our friends at Children���s Hunger Fund, a gospel-based mercy ministry, partner with local churches to meet the needs of those children and families, pointing them to Christ in the process. And our Answers VBS is helping!

You see, our AiG VBS program offers a mission moment, encouraging the children attending the program to put what they���re learning into action by help...

New Frontiers for Ministry

This month, Martyn wanted to discuss two words with you in regard to Answers in Genesis and the future of the ministry: change and balance.

Now, one of the definitions of the word evolution is this: ���a process of change in a certain direction��� (Merriam-Webster Dictionary). Certainly, Answers in Genesis has changed over the years as the ministry grows in a particular direction, to impact more and more people with the truth of God���s Word and the saving gospel. So, in that sense, I guess we c...

How Did Dingoes Get to Australia from Ararat?

Dingoes, Australia���s native wild dogs, were the subject of a recent genetic study comparing ���ancient��� DNA with the modern genome of the species. What the study found was that these dogs ���arrived in two waves of migration between 3000 and 8000 years ago��� (according to evolutionary dating). These members of the dog kind also showed little interbreeding with domestic dogs. So how do we understand this study in a biblical worldview?

Well, we understand that dingoes are dogs���members of th...
