Get Equipped for Summer Vacation

For most of us, summer means vacation: loading up suitcases, relaxing with a long-awaited book, and escaping to an exotic—or not-so-exotic—locale. No matter where you decide to go, however, one thing you are likely not to escape is the evolutionary and billions-of-years indoctrination from tour guides, park signs, and commercials.

The Road There

Looking for more information on summer vacation. Don’t miss these great ideas:

If your vacation plans this summer include a trip to panoramic vistas, breathtaking waterfalls, or geological wonders, you will no doubt be told that science has “proven” that these amazing features developed over vast amounts of time. What you aren’t likely to hear is that this “proof” is merely an interpretation of the facts based on an anti-God philosophy. But that doesn’t mean you have to go unequipped.

Answers in Genesis wants you to get the full story behind these amazing parks and wonders before you pack up to go. That’s why we’re making available online these Wonders of Geology brochures on some of the most popular (and misconstrued) vacation attractions in North America, the United Kingdom, and Australia. These brochures will show you the secular version of how these features formed, what the Bible teaches about these monuments to God’s creative majesty and righteous judgment, and how the facts line up with what God’s Word says.

Be sure to take these brochures along with you so that you and your family will have the “complete” story—and then use them to witness to others at these locations as well. Simply download the free PDFs and print them out right now. You can even print on both sides of the page for a “brochure effect.”

Mount St. Helens

Mount St. Helens

For months, scientists cautiously awaited the certain eruption of Mount St. Helens. Instruments measured the volcano’s activities, and geologists gathered to study the volcano and its impact on the surrounding area. On May 18, 1980, just after 8:30 A.M. (PDT), an earthquake a mile beneath the volcano unleashed energy that had been confined for decades. The explosion not only changed the visage of that portion of the Cascades, but deeply shook the foundation of the geological timescale once believed to be “set in stone.”
