Two Stunning Events Coming to the Ark Encounter

You won���t want to miss these special events!

We���re so thankful for the Answers Center with its 2,500-seat auditorium that allows us to host a wide variety of exciting events (along with daily programming) at the Ark Encounter. For example, starting very soon is our 40 Days and 40 Nights of Christian Music event���the world���s largest Christian music festival! But that���s not the only special event coming to the Ark this year.

C. S. Lewis��� The Horse and His Boy

Earlier this year, we hosted ...

What Christians Must Know About the Trump Shooting

Christians must have a biblical worldview that they apply to everything���including current events that grip national attention, such as the recent assassination attempt on former President Trump. When these kinds of events occur, we must properly apply biblical principles so we can be as the sons of Issachar, ���men who had understanding of the times, to know what [we] ought to do��� (1 Chronicles 12:32).

Shortly after the shooting, I posted the following to my social media accounts.

The Supposed ���Dinosaur Extinction��� Gave Us . . . Grapes?

This headline certainly made me look twice, ���If dinosaurs hadn���t gone extinct, we may not have delicious grapes.��� Now you might be wondering what possible connection there could be between dinosaurs and grapes���well, there���s a connection . . . if you apply the evolutionary worldview! Yes, another chapter in the evolutionary fairy tale.

Researchers in South America (Colombia, Panama, and Peru) uncovered fossilized grape seeds that were supposedly dated from 60 to 19 million years old. Acc...

Exhibit Update: Most Detailed Protoceratops in the World

Our artist team has been making great progress on the rapid burial exhibit that will be installed in the Starting Points room in the Creation Museum. Over the past few weeks, the team has been focusing on the very detailed work of painting the Protoceratops dinosaurs. Our artists believe these will be the most detailed such models of this particular dinosaur in the world.

It will help guests learn about rapid burial and the flood, showing how fossils formed catastrophically.

Look at the detail in...

We���re Living in Babylon���What Can We Do?

Are we living in Babylon? AiG���s Executive CEO, Martyn Iles, has a talk titled ���Living in Babylon��� that he���s given in many Western nations. This talk highlights how living in a post-Christian world is like living in the pagan nation of Babylon, a nation utterly opposed to the absolutes of Christianity. So what can we do?

Well, we can be Daniels! In fact, raising these ���Daniels��� is the theme of our 2025 homeschool experience. We need a generation that knows what God���s Word says and i...

How to ���Woke-Proof��� Your Church

What���s the key to being ���woke-proof���? Well, the answer is in Genesis! Genesis 1���11 is the foundation of all doctrine, the gospel, our Christian worldview, the rest of the Bible, and in fact, everything. Yes, Genesis 1���11 is the foundation for everything, and believing the literal history of Genesis 1���11 is the key to being woke-proof.

Just consider how it relates to these social issues:

It���s the foundation for marriage: one man and one woman. (Genesis 2:24)It���s the foundation for ...

LGBTQ Stories���They Influence Children!

Why do secularists push so hard for LGBTQ-themed books in school libraries, drag queen story hours, and LGBTQ characters in children���s content? Because they know that stories influence children, and they want to capture the minds of the next generation. And a new study confirms that, yes, these stories do what they���re intended to do.

The study involved children ages 5���6 and 9���10. The kids were divided into three groups: a control group that viewed no video, a group that watched a story a...

Meet Our New Baby Wallabies

We���re very excited that the Creation Museum���s Eden Zoo renovations are nearing completion. Not only does that mean some familiar faces will soon be returning from their temporary home at the Ark Encounter, but it also means more and more new animals are arriving.

Two of the most popular new arrivals are Jane and Kitty, the Bennett���s wallaby joeys! Any guesses where their names came from? I���ll tell you at the end of the blog post!

Here���s what the zookeepers shared with me about these cut...

Construction Update: The Beams Go Up for the Jerusalem Building

Just a few days ago, we recognized the eighth anniversary of the opening of the Ark Encounter. In a blog post, I highlighted the massive changes that have taken place since opening���and, well, there���s more coming! Enjoy these construction update photos for the new Welcome Center and Jerusalem model building.

As you can see, this building is really taking shape. All the concrete for the foundation of the large building is complete, the Jerusalem model pits are finished, and construction teams ...

���Gender Reveals������Do They Tell Us Nothing About a Baby?

���We can���t know whether a child is a boy or a girl based on their genetics or their anatomy.��� Really?

Now, if such a statement leaves you shaking your head, you���re not alone���but that is the argument put forward by two genetic counselors in a recent article that begins by introducing gender reveal parties this way: ���Gender reveals are a testament to how society is squeezing children into one of two predetermined gender boxes before they are even born.���

Yes, you can certainly see the a...
