New Dinosaur Tracks Unearthed in Texas��� Paluxy River

How can footprints be preserved? That���s a question we should be asking after a recent discovery in Texas, made possible by low water levels. Soaring temperatures and drought conditions are exposing features that have been buried beneath water and mud for years���including a trackway of 70 previously unknown dinosaur footprints in the riverbed of the Paluxy River in Dinosaur Valley State Park.

Now that name���Paluxy River���might be familiar to you (more on that in a moment) as this area is wel...

Dr. Crawley Visits the Creepy Crawlies at the Creation Museum

We recently had a very special visitor at the Creation Museum���Dr. Geoff Crawley. Yes, Dr. Crawley of Dr. Crawley���s Insectorium (one of our most popular exhibits) is a real person!

Ironically, Dr. Crawley has a massive interest in creepy crawlies and has traveled the world, collecting specimens of beetles, butterflies, bees, and more. And he generously donated a spectacular collection to the Creation Museum for an exhibit that opened in 2013 and has fascinated millions of guests, especially c...

UFOs Have Been in the News���Are They Real?

In recent months, UFOs and extraterrestrials have increasingly been in the news cycle. Reports of ���nonhuman��� biologicals operating spacecraft, as reported in certain proceedings, have captured imaginations and made many people wonder, ���Have aliens really visited earth?��� How should Christians think about all of this?

Well, I���ve answered this question many times before (and even gotten into trouble for it when my answer was misconstrued!), so this time I thought I���d answer it by sharin...

Mrs. C Is Here to Teach Your Kids the Foundational History of God���s Word

When you visit the Creation Museum, you���ll discover the backbone of all the exhibits is really the 7 C���s���the Bible���s foundational history from Genesis to Revelation: Creation, Corruption, Catastrophe, Confusion, Christ, Cross, and Consummation. This history is so foundational, and so memorable for kids, that we use it in a variety of our resources as well (such as our 2024 Answers VBS, The Great Jungle Journey).

When we were first constructing the Creation Museum, I gave our head exhibit...

Tactile Experiences and Translations���Reaching Everyone with Truth

We want everyone to be able to enjoy and learn from our attractions, the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum. For instance, we have D��a Latino, Deaf Days, and many other special events.

We also want to help people who are blind or have visual impairment or low vision. To do this, we offer a ���Tactile Experience��� and are increasingly adding braille signage and special tactile items to our exhibits.

We recently conducted a Tactile Experience at the Ark. A group of 16 guests took part in this expe...

Vehicle Wrapped with Ark Encounter Logo Races at NASCAR

NASCAR, the Ark Encounter, and an ���American experience��� for two Aussies���yes, a group of Answers in Genesis staff headed to Daytona, Florida, recently to support our friends at ForeverLawn who sponsor a NASCAR vehicle driven by Jeffrey Earnhardt (grandson of famous Dale Earnhardt). And they sponsor that NASCAR vehicle for the Ark Encounter!

For the Xfinity Series race at the Daytona International Speedway, the sponsors wrapped the car to advertise the Ark Encounter. The owners of ForeverLaw...

Ministry Update: Renovations Continue on the New AiG Headquarters

Our Answers Academy (Answers in Genesis��� K���12 Christian school) will be moving into new facilities at the end of the year (which is such a blessing for this rapidly growing school!). As I explained earlier this year, the new ���HQ��� building for the AiG ministry will house both the Christian school and all the main offices for AiG, the Creation Museum, and the Ark Encounter.

The school side of the building has been under renovation and is nearing completion. These recent photos show some cl...

What Is Central to the Creation Museum?

The walk through the Bible at the Creation Museum, called the 7 C���s of History, has always been the backbone of the museum. Now, there are lots of other exhibits, including the most powerful pro-life exhibit in the world, an insectarium, and dinosaur exhibits, as well as a planetarium, 4D theater, beautiful gardens, and much more. But the 7 C���s of History walkthrough is central to the museum.

These 7 C���s are also the foundation for much of our curricula as we take a chronological approach ...

Did Dinosaurs Exist? My Interview with Allie Beth Stuckey

While in Dallas earlier this summer, I had the privilege of sitting down with Allie Beth Stuckey, host of the popular podcast Relatable, to record a two-part series with her���answering questions about creation, evolution, the age of the earth, why Genesis matters, and, yes, the question ���Did dinosaurs exist?��� Allie does a lot of programs in advance, so I was thrilled to have the opportunity to be interviewed on her podcast.

Both Part 1 and Part 2 have now been posted to her YouTube channel ...
