Ken Ham���s YouTube Channel Hits 100,000 Subscribers

We have a very dedicated social media team at Answers in Genesis, who has been working hard to grow our impact with our YouTube channels so we can reach even more people with the message of biblical authority and the gospel. Their hard work has resulted in over 700,000 subscribers to our Answers in Genesis channel (and increasing daily), and I���m excited to announce that my channel has also reached a milestone���100,000 subscribers!

And not only have 100,000 people subscribed to my YouTube chan...

Creation Basics: What Did Jesus Say About Creation?

When you think of the term ���creation,��� you probably think of Genesis, but Scripture actually references God���s creative acts throughout the Bible. You���ll find references or allusions to creation (and even the flood) in the Psalms, in Job, throughout the Prophets, and more. And Jesus even references creation in the New Testament. However, Genesis was written as a clear cosmology, as it was written in historical narrative. So to understand the details, we first need to take Genesis as writ...

James Webb Space Telescope Reveals Fast-Growing Galaxies

Well, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is in the news again because it keeps making discoveries about galaxies that astronomers and astrophysicists did not expect. This time, the discovery is regarding evidence of supposed ���star bars,��� structures formed in galaxies that supposedly existed only a couple billion years after the big bang. These star bars are regions of heavy star density often found at the center of spiral galaxies (like our Milky Way), which are supposed to be star-birth...

Madam���s Been Murdered . . . at the Creation Museum?

Our Christian school, Answers Academy, loves to teach drama as a part of its curricula. Their annual dinner theatre was held in Legacy Hall at the Creation Museum recently, and what a fun time it was as the students performed Madam���s Been Murdered���Tea Will Be Late.

Mally and I were amazed at the talent of the kids and how they remembered all those lines! It was an evening of great food and fellowship and lots and lots of laughs . . . and a murder was even solved! Great job, students!

IVF Modernizes Ancient Eugenic Practices of Selective Breeding

Today, Monday, May 6, marks the last day of the Days of Remembrance of the Victims of the Holocaust in the US. In Hebrew, the day is often called Yom HaShoah (which means Holocaust Day) to remember the more than six million Jews murdered in Nazi Germany���s concentration camps. But since that���s not the topic of this article, why did I mention it? Well, because a recent news item looked at IVF, abortion, and eugenics in connection with the recent Alabama Supreme Court case.

As I stated in the a...

The Horse and His Boy Returns in November

I am so excited to share that the Logos Theatre from the Academy of Arts is returning to Ark Encounter to share their production of The Horse and His Boy. This powerful story brings the world of Narnia to life and takes viewers on a journey to save the beloved land created by C. S. Lewis.

In November, our Answers Center will once again temporarily turn into the beloved world of Narnia, as Shasta, Bree, Aravis, and Hwin race against an enemy army to save Narnia and the North. It���s a wonderful, ...

Creation Basics: Is It Really About the Age of the Earth?

A few months ago, a well-known apologist who believes in an old earth but had visited the Ark Encounter mentioned me and his visit to the Ark on his podcast and said that young earth creationists (like myself) should be willing to discuss the issue of the age of the earth and not refer to old earth creationists as ���compromisers.��� So why do I, and the Answers in Genesis ministry as a whole, continue to stand boldly on a young earth and assert that old earth teachings are indeed compromising ...

Rare Evolution in Action Spotted in Island Bats

A recent news article sported the bold claim that evolution in action was recently observed. But we have heard such claims many times before. Dr. Tyrone Lavery, from the University of Melbourne, reported that ���two groups of leaf-nosed bats [living in the Solomon Islands] with vastly different body sizes that were thought to be separate species are an example of a rare type of parallel evolution.���

Stay with me here, parallel evolution is when different populations (usually of the same species...
