Miraculous a Finalist for a 2026 Christian Book Award

We were notified that my book was a finalist in the Biography & Memoir category with a letter that said,

Dear Ken,

I am writing to extend my personal congratulations to you as a finalist in the 2026 Christian Book Award® program in the category of Biography & Memoir for your title:

  Miraculous! The Ken Ham and Answers in Genesis Story

This award program, now in its 48th year, is recognized as the top honor for literary excellence within the Christian publishing industry. The finalist designation recognizes your title as one of the best Christian books of the 2026 in its category.

It’s a story of God’s faithfulness and His miraculous provision over 50 years of ministry.

Miraculous! really is a special and unique book as it tells the story of my childhood; growing up in north Queensland; my parents and their stand on God’s Word and how they diligently taught me and my siblings the Bible; and how I came to be involved in creation ministry (I call it the “fire in my bones”) and started Answers in Genesis, the Creation Museum, and the Ark Encounter. But it’s more than that. Really, it’s a story of God’s faithfulness and His miraculous provision over 50 years of ministry. It will have you giving thanks and glory to God for what He alone can do! There is also great teaching throughout, helping people understand how to step out in faith and to know God’s leading in one’s life.

(And if you’d like to hear the “other side” of the story, my wife, Mally, just published Home Fires, a wonderful book of wisdom and encouragement that will challenge you as she reflects on her life and 50 years of ministry alongside me. She also provides great practical teaching on marriage and raising children too. Don’t miss it!)

We’re excited that Miraculous! was a finalist in this award program, and if you haven’t already read it, I encourage you to order your copy today and be uplifted by what the Lord has done!

Thanks for stopping by and thanks for praying,
Ken
