This year, we’re celebrating 10 years since the opening of the Ark Encounter. Now, what does this special anniversary have to do with Mother’s Day? Well, they’re connected because our attractions—and the whole AiG ministry—are really a legacy of my parents, who are now both with the Lord.

It’s a legacy of a father who stood boldly on the authority of God’s Word and a mother who loved Jesus, loved God’s Word, and prayed.

It’s a legacy of a father who stood boldly on the authority of God’s Word and a mother who loved Jesus, loved God’s Word, and prayed. My mum was a prayer warrior. Up until the Lord called her home, she prayed for me, my wife, our children and grandchildren, and the AiG ministry as much as she could.

We’ve seen countless prayers answered over the years, often in spectacular ways, and are so grateful for my mum’s commitment to praying for us. Yes, the Ark Encounter celebrating 10 years is more than just a celebration of what the Lord has done through that attraction (our research shows 70,000 people come to Christ each year after their visit!), it’s a reminder of the legacy of godliness and prayer that built this ministry and our attractions.

Thank you, Lord, for a godly mum.

If you’re a mother yourself, I pray this encourages you to pray for your children and grandchildren. Be ceaseless in praying for them and trusting the Lord’s care and sovereignty in their lives. You will leave a legacy. What kind of legacy will it be?

I hope you have a wonderful Mother’s Day!

Thanks for stopping by and thanks for praying,

Many years ago, I coauthored a book called Already Compromised, detailing research we commissioned on the state of Christian colleges—and the “report card” wasn’t good. Research showed many of these colleges, which looked great from the outside, were extremely compromised with man’s ideas. Instead of standing boldly on God’s Word, many of these schools sowed seeds of doubt in the minds of their students.

Things haven’t gotten any better over the years. A while ago, author Randy Alcorn published an article with an interesting title: “The Problem of False Advertising by Christian Colleges.” He writes,

Over twenty years ago, I wrote an article titled The Scandal of Evangelical Dishonesty. The subjects I addressed were uncomfortable and controversial, including the issue of false advertising by Christian colleges. But this problem has not gone away, and if anything, the situation is worse now than it was then.

I would agree—the problem in our Christian colleges has not gotten better with time. Even more have compromised on Scripture, even if their supporters and the parents of students don’t know it yet. Alcorn went on to say,

Many Christian colleges and universities routinely print doctrinal statements in their catalogs that are not believed or taught by some or even many of their professors. Years ago, the academic vice president of a major Christian liberal arts college confided to me, “If Christian parents actually knew what their children are being taught in our classrooms, they would pull them out of college tomorrow.” And, I would add, they’d never give another dime to that college.

If Christian colleges told the truth in their promotional materials, some would read like this: “Thirty-four percent of our faculty believe in the inerrancy of God’s Word. Twenty-one percent of our science teachers believe the biblical account of creation. No one in our psychology department believes in the doctrine of original sin. Two out of our three sociology teachers are proabortion and defenders of homosexual lifestyles. The director of our philosophy department is an agnostic. The head of our Bible department hasn’t attended church for ten years because he doesn’t believe in organized religion.”

Why not be honest and admit this publicly? The answer is simple: So Christian parents will keep paying to send their students there, and so the college’s major Christian donors will keep sending money.

He then cautioned parents not to just assume that because a college says it is Christian, or uses the right words in its marketing materials, that the school really does stand boldly on Scripture or teaches a biblical worldview. I offer the same caution.

Most parents, I believe, are non-discerning when it comes to sending their children to a “Christian” academic institution. So much more research and discernment are needed as parents are really gambling with their children’s minds and thus their eternity.

Most Christian colleges don’t actually offer that, even if they advertise it.

If you are wanting to send your child to a Christian college (or you are attending one yourself), you’re probably doing it because you want them to have a wonderful Christian environment, be taught through the lens of Scripture, and graduate better equipped to serve Christ however he has called them to. Most Christian colleges don’t actually offer that, even if they advertise it.

You must do your due diligence to dig past the marketing, speak with actual professors or deans at the college, and find out what the school really believes (looking at their social media and who they invite or whose posts they share is a great way to start). Don’t make the investment until you know for sure that this college is worth it!

If you want help, I encourage you to make plans to attend our Creation College Expo 2026 at the Ark Encounter, November 5–7, 2026. This event is free for students in grades 7–12 and features colleges and universities from across the nation that take the same stand we do on the authority of Scripture and the age of the earth. It’s a great place to start your search (of course, you still need to do your own due diligence).

Your student will also enjoy free Ark admission and teaching from myself, AiG’s Avery Foley, astronaut Captain Barry Wilmore, and Dr. Cal Beisner from the Cornwall Alliance for the Stewardship of Creation, along with a drama from Logos Theatre.

One of the schools coming to this event, and one of our partner schools, is Cedarville University in Ohio. They are proud to publicly partner with us, stating:

The Word of God — from creation to Revelation — influences every part of life at Cedarville. Like our partners at Answers in Genesis, we’re committed to biblical authority. Through excellent academics, intentional discipleship, and vibrant community, Cedarville is passionate about transforming students’ lives.

As a Cedarville student, you’ll be equipped to excel in your chosen profession and stand for biblical truth, opening doors to make a lasting impact for Christ.

They even recently hosted AiG’s VP of education, Dr. Georgia Purdom, on their podcast, highlighting her as one of their alums. You can learn more about the impact Cedarville had on her—as well as many other topics they discussed—in this video:

It’s finally open!

We’re thrilled to announce our brand-new Creation Museum restaurant, Sprig & Stone, is finally open! Our design and site development teams have done a phenomenal job planning and building this beautiful new space.

This new dining area will be a huge help in serving the needs of our guests as the busy summer season approaches. Sprig & Stone is four times bigger than our previous restaurant, Noah’s Café, so it will really enhance guest experience (and we’re making exciting plans for the old Noah’s Café space too).

Thank you to our generous supporters who gave to make this much-needed new restaurant a reality.

Come and visit soon. Make your plans at CreationMuseum.org.

Today is the National Day of Prayer here in America. Have you taken time to stop and specifically pray for our nation? This nation needs much prayer!

On this day, Americans from across the nation, along with many of our government leaders, will stop and seek the Lord regarding America, her leaders, and her people. If you haven’t taken some time today to pray, I encourage you to do so before the day is over and maybe make plans to host a prayer meeting at your home or church for the 2027 event.

The theme for this year, according to the National Day of Prayer website, is “Glorify God Among the Nations, Seeking Him in All Generations”:

Every year we pray and seek the Lord for the National Day of Prayer theme that will guide our year and unite the tens of thousands of prayer gatherings we host from coast to coast. This year on May 7, 2026, we will unite and pray as our new 2026 theme calls us to, “Glorify God Among the Nations, Seeking Him in All Generations.”

Last year our theme was inspired by a prayer that the apostle Paul prayed over the believers in Rome.

In 2026, our theme is inspired by a passionate prayer of Thanksgiving, prayed by King David in 1 Chronicles 16 after bringing the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem. This chapter records Israel celebrating the return of the Ark after being separated for 70 years earlier. While God was always watching over Israel and just a prayer away from them and King David, the Ark of the Covenant represented the presence of God. . . .

We are excited and delighted to share the 2026 National Day of Prayer theme with you, and ask that you commit to pray with us each week as God blesses us as we seek Him in Scripture and fervent prayer and glorifying Him through the 2026 National Day of Prayer theme that prompts us to, “Glorify God Among the Nations, Seeking Him in All Generations.” (emphasis in original)

We pray that God would be glorified here in America and glorified around the world so that “all tribes and peoples and languages” (Revelation 7:9) will worship and praise the Lamb of God in our generation and in those to come.

Come and celebrate 10 years with us!

It’s hard to believe but, yes, the Ark Encounter—the world’s leading Christian themed attraction—opened 10 years ago this July 7! We’re planning an anniversary celebration—and you’re invited!

Enjoy these photos of the Ark Encounter on opening day and now 10 years later. Wow, what the Lord has done! What a stunning difference.

Join us at the Ark Encounter July 9–11, 2026, for times of celebration, teaching, and worship with myself, my dear friend Ray Comfort from Living Waters, and Steve Green—CEO of Hobby Lobby and a great friend of the ministry. There will also be concerts from our resident artists, TrueSong, and a drama from the Bob Jones University drama team. And there’s a special Astronaut Encounter 2 event (Saturday, July 11), featuring three astronauts. (Registration for the Astronaut Encounter 2 can be purchased separately or as an add-on to your 10th Anniversary Celebration experience.)

You can also upgrade your experience by adding dessert with myself and Ray Comfort on Friday or by adding dinner with the astronauts on Saturday. These experiences (and the Astronaut Encounter) are likely to sell out, so get your tickets right away.

Join us as we praise the Lord for 10 years of impacting people with the truth of God’s Word!

Join us as we praise the Lord for 10 years of impacting people with the truth of God’s Word! Yes, because the history in God’s Word is true, the gospel message is also true, and that’s the message we’ve been powerfully proclaiming at the Ark Encounter for 10 years now!

What is the best museum in Northern Kentucky and the best in all of Kentucky? Well, obviously we think it’s the Ark Encounter or the Creation Museum! And Kentucky agrees—the Creation Museum has been nominated for best museum in Kentucky in the Best of Kentucky contest from Kentucky Living, while Ark Encounter is a finalist for best museum in the Best of NKY contest and a finalist for best kid-friendly attraction in Kentucky Living’s the Best of Kentucky contest.

The Ark Encounter is an incredible attraction and a great tourism asset to Northern Kentucky.

With three decks filled with world-class exhibits, the largest freestanding timber-frame structure in the world (it’s truly an architectural marvel), an interactive zoo experience, a children’s playground, a unique carousel, and so much more, the Ark Encounter is an incredible attraction and a great tourism asset to Northern Kentucky. It’s no surprise this amazing attraction is a finalist for best museum in the Best of NKY contest and best kid-friendly attraction in the state in the Best of Kentucky contest. In fact, the Ark is the biggest themed attraction in Kentucky and the biggest Christian themed attraction in the world.

And the Creation Museum features stunning exhibits—including our brand-new Radiance exhibit—a totally unique Plants of the Bible Conservatory, beautiful botanical gardens, a zoo, playground, planetarium, special effects theater, and so much more! Again, it’s no surprise this incredible attraction has been nominated as best museum for the Best of Kentucky contest.

Voting is now open for both contests, and anyone can vote from anywhere, once per day. If you love the Ark and museum, please vote for the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum for each contest every day until voting closes. Winners will be announced May 19 and August 19, 2026, respectively.

You can vote for Ark Encounter here for Best of NKY and both the Creation Museum and Ark Encounter here for Best of Kentucky.

A recent headline caught my attention: “Is stem cell therapy about to transform medicine and reverse ageing?” The subtitle of the column says, “A clinical trial to reverse age-related vision conditions using stem cell treatment could finally deliver on the promise of a major discovery in ageing and regeneration made 20 years ago.” Will humanity finally discover how to live forever?

Of course, this study doesn’t claim to enable us to live forever—just to possibly reverse some of the effects of time. Yes, the world is obsessed with “antiaging” or reversing the effects of time and the curse on our bodies. It’s an $83 billion market—and that number is expected to balloon to nearly $150 billion in under a decade. Every new development grabs headlines as people hope maybe, just maybe, the technology will develop in our lifetime. And maybe it will.

Even if scientists can extend lifespans by a decade or two or more, they won’t be able to save anyone from death.

Maybe someday they’ll figure out how to repair our declining vision, reverse wrinkles (without Botox!), or decrease our age at a cellular level. But even if scientists can extend lifespans by a decade or two or more, they won’t be able to save anyone from death. Everyone will die, and that’s just a fact (until Christ returns). How do I know scientists will never be able to give immortality or anything like it? Because God’s Word clearly says,

And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment. (Hebrews 9:27)

Death will come to all of us because all have sinned. Our bodies don’t ultimately wear out and die because of aging. Yes, that might be the natural mechanism—along with sickness, accidents, and intentional killing—but the ultimate reason is the same for everyone. The cause of death is ultimately the same: sin.

Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned. (Romans 5:12)

You are a sinner and I am a sinner, as we are all descendants of Adam. And that is why our bodies will someday return to the dust from which we came (Genesis 3:19). The Apostle Paul describes our bodies as a tent in which our spirit/soul dwells.

For we know that if the earthly tent which is our house is torn down, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. (2 Corinthians 5:1 LSB)

The only way to be saved from death is through faith in Jesus Christ. Jesus died in our place on the cross, taking our penalty of death for us, and then he rose from the grave. If we turn from our sin and trust in him, we will be forgiven of our sin and given the gift of eternal life. Even though our bodies will die, our souls will live forever—and someday, we will be given a new, glorified, resurrected body that will never age but will continue forever and ever and ever.

A church in South Carolina has been in the news lately after it posted a video showing the graduation of its 2026 “Gracism” class, who all left as “ministers of reconciliation.” What is “gracism”?

It appears the church training came from a group called Gracism Global, which defines the word as “extending positive favor to other people regardless of, and sometimes because of, their color, class, or culture.” Their website doesn’t give much more information than that beyond “The Eight Sayings of a Gracist”:

1. I will lift you up
2. I will cover you
3. I will share with you
4. I will honor you
5. I will stand with you
6. I will consider you
7. I will celebrate with you
8. I will heal with you

When you read through the short description of each of these sayings, it sounds very much like typical DEI trainings that emphasize and draw attention to so-called “race” and divide everyone into either oppressed or oppressor classes, simply based on what the person looks like on the outside (for example, under “I will share with you,” it says, “Opening up networks and resources to others who are systematically downtrodden, and refusing special treatment that may hurt them”). Of course, the words used can have so many different meanings, it’s hard to know what’s really meant by them (which might be purposeful!).

As AiG speaker Bryan Osborne shows in his book Woke Injustice, the world’s way of dealing with racism—which is often adopted by the church—not only doesn’t work, but is completely unbiblical. It always ends up watering down the gospel or teaching a “new gospel” (which Paul says is no gospel at all).

The true answer to racism is not highlighting our differences and emphasizing them over and over again. Nor is it judging people based on the shade of their skin (this happens constantly in woke/DEI trainings—anyone with a light shade of skin is automatically an oppressor, and anyone with a dark shade of skin is automatically oppressed). The true answer to racism is understanding the human race based on biblical history and the gospel of Jesus Christ.

The ultimate problem isn’t skin—it’s sin!

If we want to end the sin of racism, we must teach the biblical truth found in Genesis that we’re all one race (which has been confirmed by science), all descended from Adam, and therefore all sinners in need of a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. The ultimate problem isn’t skin—it’s sin! That’s the root cause of racism, and the only answer to this spiritual problem is a spiritual solution: the gospel! In fact, the solution to all of man’s issues is God’s Word and the gospel.

You can learn more about the biblical and scientific teaching regarding race in my recently extensively updated and revised—with brand-new chapters added—book, One Blood. It’s now available for preorder and is a powerful message that our confused culture and (sadly) church needs to hear.

You can find One Blood at AnswersBookstore.com.

There is so much that goes on behind the scenes at AiG! And we recently invited creatives from across the nation to go behind the scenes with us during our second annual Spark at the Ark event.

These creatives—people working in the film industry, theater, museums, theme parks, and more—loved getting special tours of the attractions, seeing our incredible design studios where our exhibits are designed and fabricated, participating in workshops, and learning from experts across a variety of creative fields. Attendees really loved touring our new conservatory exhibiting the plants of the Bible.

Enjoy these photos from the event:

Spark at the Ark is taking place again in 2027—don’t miss it! Save the date: April 19–21, 2027. Registration will be available soon.

We hope to see you next year for this incredible and very unique experience.

Do we need a “third testament” to add to or replace the Old and New Testaments that make up our Bibles? Well, according to a pastor at a United Church of Christ in California (who also serves as “Presiding Bishop of The Fellowship of Affirming Ministries” and is “married” to her lesbian partner), we do, because the Bible is “problematic.”

It’s no surprise that a female “pastor” who apparently identifies as a “womanist,” teaches liberation theology, and accepts homosexuality is going to have some issues with Scripture! During a recent presentation for the Center for Public Theology & Public Policy, she stated:

This a very dangerous thing that I’m about to say now . . . a bit dangerous. I’m of the opinion that we need a third testament because the Bible has become problematic.

“Slaves obey your masters as you do the Lord.” It’s a text.

“Let the women keep silent in the churches and if they have any questions let them ask their husbands at home.”

Now, I’m a believer. My whole heart, I trust God with my whole heart. I wake up in the morning talking to God and God talking to me.

But I am completely frustrated with the ways in which the text speaks to the kind of vitriolic God that makes those kinds of things.

And people will say, “Well, it’s in the book.” And I said, “Then we need to pull that page out.”

And they say, “Well, you can’t do it. It’s the Word of God.” I said, “No, it’s words about God.” Come on now. But is it the Word of God? No. It is not the Word of God.

God’s Word has warnings for those who add to or take away from it.

Well, she’s right about one thing—what she’s proposing is dangerous! God’s Word has warnings for those who add to or take away from it. But her view that we need to rip pages out of the Bible that we don’t like is just a natural consequence of her elevating her own opinions above the authority of the Word of God. She actually is being her own god (Genesis 3:5).

Now, few Christians are surprised by “progressive Christians” like her treating God’s Word this way. But what they don’t realize is that many Christians functionally believe the same thing she does—they just would never say it that way!

Most Christians would never say we need another Bible, that we should tear out pages of the Scriptures we find problematic, or that the Bible is merely a book about God—but they act like it in how they treat the Scriptures . . . particularly Genesis.

Instead of ripping out or rewriting passages, they just reinterpret them, adding man’s ideas into the text. It’s less dramatic and much more deceptive, but it’s just as dangerous. Genesis is clear that God created everything in six literal, 24-hour days. Yet many men and women who believe the Bible in other areas come to Genesis with ideas regarding millions of years—which come from fallible man’s interpretation of the rock layers—and they reinterpret God’s clear Word to fit them in. It’s the same attitude of elevating man’s word over God’s Word! In fact, in a way, they are saying man’s word is infallible and God’s Word is fallible.

Just as you wouldn’t rip a page out of your Bible or write a third testament, don’t take man’s ideas regarding origins and read them into the text—recognize God as the authority in all areas, from the very first verse.

It’s our busy spring season, packed with back-to-back events—including our recent outreach to the Deaf community, Deaf Days, at the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum. This event impacted around 300 Deaf guests this year!

Our 2026 Deaf Days theme was Identity—a vital topic in today’s culture and the perfect tie-in to our brand-new Radiance exhibit at the Creation Museum. Each speaker, either in ASL (American Sign Language) or with an interpreter, addressed the issue of identity from a biblical perspective through personal testimonies and teaching sessions. I had the privilege of presenting One Race, One Blood, affirming the truth from God’s Word that we are all descendants of Adam, created in God’s image. It took 45 dedicated volunteers to pull this event off, including both Deaf individuals and ASL interpreters.

This year, we also saw an increase in Deaf/blind guests and guests with low vision, and we were pleased to offer interpreted tactile experiences at both attractions for them.

Enjoy these photos:

The Deaf are one of the largest unreached people groups in the world. We’re grateful for the opportunity to partner with many Deaf ministries as we boldly proclaim the message of salvation to the Deaf community. Throughout the year, we continue this outreach by providing ASL interpreters during the summer season, offering ASL music videos for our Answers VBS, providing ASL interpretation on select conferences on Answers TV, and more.

Save the date for next year’s Deaf Days: March 5–6, 2027.

And please pray for us as the conferences continue—next up is our Answers Homeschool Experience, May 14–16, 2026.

Well, the associate professor of biology at the University of Minnesota–Morris, P.Z. Myers, who has been obsessed with me and AiG for years, recently wrote a blog about me titled, “Waiting for Another Creepy Old Man to Die.”

He ended the blog stating: “That’s a problem with authoritarian cults. They are ruled for life by unpleasant, weird people who alienate everyone around them, and maybe instill in them the ambition to be in charge on their own. I hope I outlive Ken Ham, because I’d really like to see the chaos that will follow on his death.”

As we know, God’s Word states that,

For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die. (Ecclesiastes 3:1–2)

So when any one of us dies is not up to what some atheist professor wants. God is in control of both Myers’ life and ours.

But this pagan university professor, who has continually blasphemed and mocked God and Christians, needs to wake up and take note of God’s warning:

And inasmuch as it is appointed for men to die once and after this comes judgment. (Hebrews 9:27 LSB)

And if Myers continues in his willing ignorance and rebellion against God, he will suffer a second death after the first death:

But for the cowardly and unbelieving and abominable and murderers and sexually immoral persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death. (Revelation 21:8 LSB)

I would ask us to all pray for P.Z. Myers as he is well on his way to a Christless eternity. He is 68 years old (younger than me), but God could end his earthly life at any second.

I thought I would start off with this today as I want to remind us all that we are in a spiritual war. And this war is raging about us even more aggressively now than we’ve experienced in the past here in the West.

Years ago, someone said to me, “If you stand on the devil’s toes, he reacts. You guys must be kicking him in the shins.”

As we move the battlefront forward, proclaiming God’s Word and the gospel, we expect the enemy to fight back.

Recently, I’ve seen a level of hate against us that seems to be growing. And really, we should expect this. As we see the enormous number of people saved through this ministry, including over 100,000 a year at the attractions alone, we know the devil will be active. Actually, I believe that because we are in a war, if we’re not getting opposition, we should ask ourselves what we are doing! As we move the battlefront forward, proclaiming God’s Word and the gospel, we expect the enemy to fight back.

Just to give you a sampling of the enemies of God lashing out at us (reminding us of this spiritual war we are in), I will include just a sampling of the 20,000+ comments on one of my Facebook posts. The post was short:

Now, there were over 20,000 comments on this post, the majority from enemies of God! Let me share some with you:

Okay, you get the idea! There were thousands like this, many of which I would not put in this letter because they are so perverse. But should we be shocked at such a response from the world? Actually, we shouldn’t. But this last one I’m including is extremely sad because it highlights the state of the majority of our Christian institutions:

So many young people from the church have gone to a compromising Bible college/university and come out believing no different than those who posted the comments I included above. A sad state of affairs but a situation that has greatly contributed to a lukewarm church that is, by and large, not impacting the church and culture as it should.

We really are in a raging war. That’s why Apostle Paul uses so much war terminology, reminding us to put on the whole armor of God so we can fight in this battle.

Now we also need to be reminded that this is a religious war.

Consider the atheists and other secularists (and even some people who identify as Christians) who went “ape” over my post. Over 90% of the comments were negative and most of them were highly emotional in attacking me and what Scripture teaches about origins—blaspheming God, attacking the Bible, many mocking me with the worst kind of profanity, and questioning my intelligence (the word idiot was used hundreds of times!). The emotions on display exposed thousands of evolutionists passionately defending their belief system. So many were so profane or blasphemous that we hid their comments. Obviously for them, origins is more than a science issue. Their worldview is challenged by the Bible.

The evolutionary worldview is a religion, one that’s practiced by those who attack Christianity. They have a nontheistic religion; in fact, evolution fits one of the Merriam-Webster dictionary definitions of religion: “a cause, principle, or system of beliefs held to with ardor and faith.” The dictionary definition of religion certainly describes the worldview of evolutionary naturalism. The beliefs of evolutionism purport to explain the entire world’s existence by means of evolutionary naturalism, and thus, it is an all-encompassing faith—a religious worldview.

Furthermore, the secularists who publicly argue against biblical Christianity (like the thousands on my Facebook post) have their own religious cause to promote as they zealously defend their belief in a naturalistic system of origins. What else would you call what they practice but a religion?

And following the definition above, because zealous evolutionists hold their beliefs with “ardor” and “faith,” they can be described as evangelists for their worldview—defending a belief system that informs how they wish to lead a life apart from God. So by this definition and what we saw from the zealous, angry evolutionists on my Facebook page, evolution is a religious faith. And thus, its avid proponents are religious.

As I say in my talks, in an ultimate sense, there are only two religions in the world—one based on God’s Word and the other based on man’s word.

In an ultimate sense, there are only two religions in the world—one based on God’s Word and the other based on man’s word.

At Answers in Genesis, we are extremely active in this religious war! Thank you for the prayers and financial resources you generously provide so that we can use all the “weaponry” we can to continue to push the battlefront forward in this religious war. Yes, we are zealots in this war as we are fighting for the King of kings.

And what is this “weaponry”? It’s AiG’s evangelistic and equipping content that’s proclaimed without compromise in its world-class attractions, dynamic resources, and creative media to equip believers, defend the Christian faith, and challenge nonbelievers with the truth of the Bible and its message of salvation!

Our just-released annual report for 2025 gives a great overview of the reach and impact of AiG’s ministry where you’ll see that tens of millions were directly impacted and over 100,000 responded to the gospel. It’s the core ministry of Answers in Genesis that develops and delivers the evangelistic content that the Lord has used to impact so many lives for Christ.

And I’m thrilled to share that, because of the impact, a supporter has offered a core ministry matching gift commitment for this spring. From now until the end of May, all gifts to the core ministry will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $1,000,000. Wow!

I urge you to prayerfully consider a generous gift today to AiG’s core ministry that will be matched 100% through the end of May up to $1,000,000. You can make your gift at AnswersDonate.com.

I’m writing this while in Australia, right after speaking to 15,000 people in California on the way here. Down under, I’ve been speaking with E.Z. Zwayne from Living Waters (Ray Comfort’s ministry) to packed audiences, including so many young people hungry for answers on how to deal with the problems in our increasingly pagan culture in the West. And of course, I tell them God’s Word and the gospel have always been and always will be the solution. Yes, we established some new battlefronts in California and are now doing this in Australia. The war continues!

Please pray the Lord would continue to protect and increase the ministry he has given us. I’m so grateful for your prayers and financial support, and thank you for sending a gift today to help us take full advantage of the matching gift commitment that has been offered through the end of May. The more resources you are able to supply us with, the more “weaponry” we will use across America and around the world to reach people with the truth of God’s Word and the gospel.

Oh, and pray for all those who wrote the negative and often nasty responses! Pray God will use what they have heard to convict them and bring them to a knowledge of the truth and respond to the gospel. And pray earnestly for atheist P.Z. Myers!

In Christ,
Ken

Young American men are becoming more religious. Actually, everyone has a religion, but “becoming more religious” means they are more interested in spiritual things.

For decades, we’ve been observing a downward trend in church attendance and religious affiliation, particularly among young people. But that trend seems to be reversing, especially among young men (Republicans in particular), according to a new Gallup poll. Their latest research found that 42% of young men (ages 18–29) say religion is “very important” in their lives. This is up from 28% just two years prior!

What’s interesting is this increase is only seen among young men, not among older men or among women of any age. (Only 29% of women ages 18–29 say religion is “very important” in their lives, and that number has stayed steady. They are considered to be “by far the least religious women.”) Gallup noted:

With the recent surge in their attachment to religion, young men have returned to the high point of their expressed religiosity of the past 25 years, roughly tying the 43% found in 2000-2001. By contrast, women of all age groups and older men are at or near their historical lows.

What’s caused this leap in young men’s interest in “religion”? Well, some people are calling it the “Charlie Kirk effect”; others are pointing to popular podcasts, like Joe Rogan’s, that are spiritually curious and have often hosted Christians. While we don’t know for sure what’s causing it, the rise in men interested in faith means that you may have some new young male faces in your church—so what should you be doing to make sure they are being discipled well?

I have three suggestions for you:

1. Get them into God’s Word. Young men need more than Joe Rogan hosting a few Christians on his podcast—they need a daily diet of Scripture to build them up in the faith and point them toward Christ. Make sure any new young men visiting your church have Bibles and encourage them from the pulpit, and in personal conversation, to read it cover to cover. Start men’s Bible studies or gather for breakfast to discuss Scripture. Nothing is more important than grounding them in the Word of God.
2. Teach them biblical worldview. Many of the men influencing young men online are ungodly and prideful, portraying masculinity in ways that run contrary to Scripture and God’s design for men as humble, loving leaders in their homes and churches. Anti-biblical ideas are everywhere, and many specifically target young men. We need to be teaching biblical worldview in our churches (for everyone!), including a biblical view of masculinity and sexuality. If you’re a pastor, be up on what young men are listening to and, as your sermon text gives opportunity, address these errors. Even consider hosting a weekend conference or men’s retreat to discuss these unbiblical teachings in depth and help young men build a more biblical worldview.
3. Give them meat. No, not literal meat (though they may like that too). So many churches teach “fluffy” messages and focus more on experience than teaching God’s Word. Often times, there will be long times of worship and only a short message that may or may not have much Scripture in it! Worship is great and honors the Lord (when aligned with his Word), but people also need to hear the Word preached faithfully. Don’t be afraid to teach theology, doctrine, apologetics, and worldview—the world certainly isn’t afraid to disciple young men in their version of these things! Give them the meat they need to anchor them in truth.

We praise the Lord for this renewed interest in spiritual matters among young men. We pray it reaps a harvest of righteousness and that many of these young men come to saving faith in Christ.

I have one more bonus tip for you: Invite the young men in your church to Answers for Men at the Ark Encounter, March 19–20, 2027. Early bird pricing is available now, and this event will sell out very soon, so save your seats today (we will be adding a second back-to-back conference soon because it’s been so popular!). It’s an incredible time of learning from the Word—and you won’t find any “fluff” or empty emotionalism here!

The 2027 theme is Defense of the Christian Faith: A Call for Men to Be Courageous, and it features teaching from myself, astronaut Colonel Jeffrey Williams, Mark Spence, Justin Peters, Dr. Albert Mohler, and Alex Kendrick, along with worship led by Michael O’Brien.

Find out all the details and register today on our website. A big thank-you to our sponsors, BJU Press and The Master’s University, for making this event possible.

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?

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.

This item was written with the assistance of AiG’s research team.

In over 50 years of traveling and speaking on Genesis, biblical worldview, and apologetics, one comment I continue to hear over and over again is, “I grew up in the church my whole life, and I’ve never heard any of this!” Why is it that so few Christians can answer the skeptical questions of our day that attack God’s Word—particularly, Genesis?

Well, I’ll give you three reasons:

1. They’ve compromised with the atheistic ideas of our day. So many Christians have adopted evolutionary ideas and added them into Scripture. This makes it impossible to answer basic questions about Genesis because, well, you don’t really believe Genesis at all! Man’s interpretations are your authority, not God and his Word.
2. Many Christians don’t know what the Bible teaches. We’re living in a time of rampant biblical illiteracy. Many Christians can’t answer questions because they don’t know what the Word of God teaches.
3. There’s been a lack of apologetics (faith-defense) teaching in our churches and homes. Many Christians attend churches that preach “feel good,” or what I call “fluff and stuff,” shallow messages, rather than actually teaching the biblical worldview and wrestling with the questions of our day. Many pastors purposefully avoid Genesis because they don’t want to be controversial! But Genesis is foundational to our biblical worldview, so avoiding Genesis means that pastors will also avoid talking about hot-button issues that are answered in Genesis, like gender, sexuality, race, sanctity of life, and more. The result is generations of Christians who don’t know what they believe or how to defend the truth of Scripture.

In a recent YouTube video for the Answers in Genesis Canada channel, Calvin Smith (our AiG–Canada director) expounded on these concerns, showing how Christians cannot answer questions until they take Genesis as literal history. I encourage you to watch this video (and be sure to subscribe to their channel):

We need to raise up generations who know what God’s Word teaches and are equipped to think biblically, allowing God’s Word to be the authority in all areas, and thus to have answers for skeptical questions.

So what do we do about it? Well, we need to raise up generations who know what God’s Word teaches (that means we need to be reading our Bibles!) and are equipped to think biblically, allowing God’s Word to be the authority in all areas, and thus to have answers for skeptical questions.

A great place to start learning is our website AnswersInGenesis.org. We’re constantly posting new articles and videos to help equip you with answers. I encourage you to visit our website often to be equipped to think biblically and answer the questions of our day.

Gender ideology simply doesn’t work.

According to our culture today, a man can be a woman, and a woman a man, as long as that’s how the person identifies. But self-identification (confusion, really) doesn’t change biology. One can’t change his or her genetics. A man is still a man, and a woman a woman. And this is abundantly obvious when it comes to sports. Trans-identifying boys and men—that means biological boys and men self-identifying as females—keep competing against women and girls and winning their awards, scholarships, and achievements while destroying their privacy and, often times, safety. But we know the Y chromosome gives an athletic advantage to males!

The obvious advantage boys and men (XY chromosomes) have over girls and women (XX chromosomes) is one reason that former Olympian Bruce Jenner, who now goes by Caitlyn and presents himself as a woman, has supported banning males from female sports, despite the fact that he believes he is a woman. This is significant because Jenner helped push the idea of transgenderism in our culture when he appeared in a dress on the cover of Vogue in 2015.

Well, in a recent podcast, Jenner reportedly stated, “Here I am fighting the battle to keep biological men out of women’s sports because it’s not right. . . . I started thinking what a hypocrite I am.”

Why is he a hypocrite? Well, because he received Glamour’s Woman of the Year award back in 2015—yes, a man received a woman of the year award! Over a decade later, he now realizes it was hypocritical of him to take a woman’s award from a woman while arguing men shouldn’t be allowed to steal women’s sports achievements. But despite his recognition of the hypocrisy, he still refuses to recognize that he’s not a woman—which is the root of the problem.

He states, “I’m still XY. Biologically, I’m female. But genetically, I’m still XY. There’s nothing I can do about that.” In other words, he’s still a male—every single cell in his body is male. And, by the way, he’s not “biologically female” because he does not have the genetics to be female (genetics determine biological development, after all!). Rather, he’s had surgery to try to force his body to appear female. That’s not “biologically female,” that’s male.

The reason men can outcompete women in sports and that men shouldn’t win woman of the year awards is because . . . they aren’t women.

The reason men can outcompete women in sports and that men shouldn’t win woman of the year awards is because . . . they aren’t women. It doesn’t matter what they wear, what people call them, or how many surgeries they’ve had or hormones they take, a man is a man. That’s biological reality.

What Jenner needs is a worldview that makes sense logically and is in line with reality. And that is found by making the truth of God’s Word the foundation for one’s worldview! In a fallen world, there will be people who struggle with identity, but the answer is not a sinful lifestyle in opposition to truth. The answer is an identity grounded in the truth that every person is made either male or female in the image of God to glorify him. (That’s the truth we’re powerfully sharing through our new identity exhibit at the Creation Museum, Radiance. If you haven’t seen it yet, I encourage you to make plans to visit—it’s a wonderful new addition.)

So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God he created him;
male and female he created them. (Genesis 1:27)

And God’s Word tells us that in Christ, we can overcome every temptation.

No temptation has overtaken you but such as is common to man, but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will provide the way of escape also, so that you will be able to endure it. (1 Corinthians 10:13 LSB)

Streaming giant Netflix recently released a brand-new documentary miniseries titled The Dinosaurs, featuring lifelike animated dinosaurs and narration from Morgan Freeman. But was the documentary scientific?

Well, AiG paleoartist Joel Leineweber recently filmed a response to The Dinosaurs, examining the artwork and “science” of the series in light of what we find in both the fossil record and the Word of God. I encourage you to watch it.

Unsurprisingly, The Dinosaurs is filled with atheistic evolutionary teaching and a big push to make dinosaurs seem very birdlike (to try to indoctrinate people with the evolutionary belief that dinosaurs evolved into birds). Of course, we’re not surprised—Netflix certainly isn’t trying in any way to push a biblical worldview!

If you’re looking for a streaming platform that does honor God and that views science through the lens of a biblical worldview, I encourage you to check out Answers TV. Our streaming platform features kids’ programs, in-depth college-level series, nature documentaries, science shows, and so much more—including many programs in Spanish and also a number in Arabic. And it’s all designed to point you and your family toward the truth of God’s Word and a more biblical worldview.

According to God’s Word, children are a blessing and a gift from God to their parents. This means they are not a commodity to be acquired by any means necessary by anyone. That should be an obvious truth, but in our day and age it’s not. What do I mean by this?

Well, modern reproductive technologies allow children’s genetics to be selected from a catalog, with the sperm and egg “donors” (really sellers) being chosen for their IQ, appearance, or accomplishments. IVF allows babies to be sorted according to their genetics, with those whose genetics don’t “measure up” being thrown away (literally thrown away as medical waste—killing [murdering] a human being made in God’s image). Homosexual parents, who could never have children on their own, can purchase eggs and sperm and even rent a woman’s womb to create a child who is purposefully deprived either of a mother or a father. It’s tragic, and it’s the commodification of children.

AiG’s Avery Foley recently interviewed Katy Faust, founder of Them Before Us, about this issue. I encourage you to watch it—it’s a powerful interview.

Yes, we need to be defending unborn life whether that life is being attacked by abortion or by reproductive technology.

Why did God give this command to the Israelites?

You shall not give any of your children to offer them to Molech, and so profane the name of your God: I am the Lord. (Leviticus 18:21)

Why would God need to tell his people not to offer their precious child on the altar of a pagan god? Well, because it turns out that sinful mankind is very apt to offer their children as a sacrifice to a god—whether that’s Molech or the god of self, convenience, comfort, safety, or pleasure. We’re no better today than the pagan nations around Israel that gave up their children. And the numbers at Planned Parenthood prove it.

For its 2024–2025 fiscal year, the abortion (baby murder) giant reports that it performed a record 434,450 abortions. Let that sink in: 434,450 precious, helpless image bearers of God, murdered in their mother’s womb. That’s an 8% increase from the year before. That’s an averaged 1,190 babies every single day.

Most of those babies are likely killed via abortion pills (which are deadly to babies and harmful to women) prescribed through “telehealth” visits.

Katherine Van Dyke, an American Life League researcher, highlighted Planned Parenthood’s expanding use of telehealth services, which increased 126% from 2024 to 2025, reaching 320,390 telehealth appointments plus another 62,000 through virtual centers. These undoubtedly push dangerous abortion pills that kill babies and injure women.

Yes, even though Roe was overturned, horrific numbers of abortions continue, even in states where it is no longer legal to operate a clinic, because anyone can order pills online and kill their baby. The blood of these murdered children is surely crying out to the God who “hates . . . hands that shed innocent blood” (Proverbs 6:16–17).

Instead of welcoming babies into the world as the blessings and gifts that God says they are, men and women are murdering the children God has given them!

It’s no shock that, around the same time I saw this report from Planned Parenthood, there was another news item announcing that the US birth rate has hit another record low, dropping from 1.6 births per woman, to 1.57 births (that’s more than a 1% decrease). Instead of welcoming babies into the world as the blessings and gifts that God says they are, men and women are murdering the children God has given them! It’s another tragic consequence of a worldview grounded on man’s word rather than God’s Word.

According to one source, the birth rate is so bad that:

There were MORE babies born in 1966—when our population was 196 million—than in 2025, with 343 million people.

Of course, if the nearly half a million babies Planned Parenthood murdered last year (and that’s just the numbers for Planned Parenthood—that doesn’t include other abortion providers!) had been allowed to live, think what a difference that would make for the future of this nation.

In fact, it’s estimated there are over one million abortions each year right now in America. The number of additional births needed each year in America to even out the birth rate is just over one million!

Abortion is evil. Babies are a blessing from God, and we need to do everything we can to protect those lives.

Behold, children are an inheritance of Yahweh,
The fruit of the womb is a reward. (Psalm 127:3 LSB)

Foolishness is always the end result of rejecting God’s Word and starting with human “wisdom” instead. “Claiming to be wise, they became fools” (Romans 1:22).

And this foolishness has been on clear display through the words of Texas Democrat James Talarico, who claims that God is “nonbinary” and that the Bible sometimes refers to God “as a female.” Biblically, this is nonsense—and AiG’s Dr. Terry Mortenson and I explain why in this video:

He’s leading others astray, and according to God’s Word, he’s a wolf who is perverting the grace of God into an excuse to sin.

But Talarico is not just a politician—he is also apparently attending a Presbyterian seminary (don’t worry, his seminary certainly won’t be coming to our Creation College Expo this November!). Sadly, his anti-biblical beliefs are becoming increasingly common among theologians and scholars, not because the Bible has changed or because it isn’t clear but because they’ve taken their own ideas and added them into the text. And they are notorious at taking verses out of context. They’re doing eisegesis (into), not exegesis (out of).

I doubt Talarico’s pastor is calling out his heresy and false teaching—but that’s what he needs! He’s leading others astray, and according to God’s Word, he’s a wolf who is perverting the grace of God into an excuse to sin.

I found it necessary to write appealing to you to contend for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints. For certain people have crept in unnoticed who long ago were designated for this condemnation, ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into sensuality and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ. (Jude 1:3–4)

If you’re a pastor or a Christian leader, we want you to be above reproach, standing faithful in an age of compromise. There is so much pressure on the church and her leaders to spew the kinds of teachings that Talarico does—but we cannot do so if we want to please our Lord. And being above reproach, faithfully living without compromise, is the theme of our upcoming Answers for Pastors & Leaders conference at the Ark Encounter, September 29–October 1, 2026.

Hear from myself, E.Z. Zwayne of Living Waters, Dr. H. B. Charles Jr., Costi Hinn, Dennis Rainey, and so many others. The conference also includes a special session with Megan Basham for wives and a concert featuring the Gettys. It will be an amazing time of equipping leaders to serve the Lord faithfully, without compromise, no matter what the culture does.

The early bird special ends soon, so be sure to register today.

Don’t miss A Great Awakening!

Mally and I took some of our children and grandchildren to see this excellent new movie produced by Sight & Sound Theatres in honor of America’s 250th anniversary. We all loved it! It’s one of the best movies I’ve ever seen. It’s emotional and very convicting—a movie about the life of the famous preacher George Whitefield. I was so thrilled our family could see this.

“A Great Awakening tells the true story of an unlikely friendship that resulted in one of the most defining moments in American history.”

I encourage every family to find a theater near you that is showing it and do not miss it! It may only be showing in your area for another few days or so (it’s in about 1,000 US theaters through this weekend, but some are carrying it a bit longer).

Here’s how Sight & Sound describes this film:

A Great Awakening tells the true story of an unlikely friendship that resulted in one of the most defining moments in American history. With the colonies on the brink of collapse, the Reverend George Whitefield sparks the First Great Awakening, uniting an entire generation with his thundering proclamation of liberty in Christ. In a miraculous turn of events, one of Whitefield’s closest friends and greatest promoters becomes none other than Benjamin Franklin. With the nation’s freedom hanging in the balance, Franklin discovers true liberty cannot only be written into law—it must be awakened in the hearts of the people.

The film will be available to rent or purchase in mid-May, but if you can, go and experience it on the big screen (I urge you to do so!).

Warning: It will create a great awakening in you! It convicted me to be even more bold about proclaiming God’s Word and the gospel and calling out the error of church leaders leading people astray!
