I have a multiple-choice question for you. Hopefully if you’ve been following my blog for a while, you can get the correct answer! Ready to challenge yourself?

Question: Did kangaroos once live in the Middle East?

  1. No, they’ve always lived in Australia.
  2. Maybe. We don’t know where they’ve always lived.
  3. Yes
  4. None of the above

Over the years, I’ve asked this question when speaking to churches or other groups, and I find most people answer with A: No, they’ve always lived in Australia. (Is that what you guessed?) This question is one of many I ask to help people learn how to develop a truly Christian worldview.

After finding most people give A as the answer, here’s what I do next. I ask a series of questions:

  • How many of you believe in Noah’s ark? Most hands go up.
  • How many believe two of each kind of land animal, including the kangaroo kind, went on board the ark? Most hands go up.
  • How many believe there was a global flood? Most hands go up.
  • How many believe the ark landed on the mountains of Ararat in the Middle East? Most hands go up.
  • How many now believe kangaroos once lived in the Middle East? People laugh as their hands go up.

So what’s the correct answer? It’s C: Yes!

In our anti-God, anti-Christian age, a biblical worldview is desperately needed—and we can even use kangaroos to begin to develop it!

But most people don’t get it right because most people have not been taught to think with a biblical worldview by building their thinking on the Bible. Most churches haven’t taught how to develop a truly biblical worldview. Instead, many Christians have been very secularized, adding the Bible to their thinking rather than starting with God’s Word as the foundation.

In our anti-God, anti-Christian age, a biblical worldview is desperately needed—and we can even use kangaroos to begin to develop it!

And if you’re an educator, I encourage you to become equipped to help others build a biblical worldview by attending our upcoming Answers for Educators event, July 20–21, 2026, at the Ark Encounter and our Christian school, Answers Academy. With focused instruction and practical application, you will leave better equipped to help others start with God’s Word and build their thinking from there. Registration includes a 3-Day Bouncer Pass to the Creation Museum and Ark Encounter.

You can learn more and register on our events page.

And a big thank-you to our sponsors, Herzog Foundation and Cedarville University, for helping us put this event together.

Thanks for stopping by and thanks for praying,
Ken
