The radioisotope methods—long touted as irrefutably dating the earth as countless millions of years old—have repeatedly failed to give reliable and meaningful absolute ages for Grand Canyon rocks.
In the walls of the Grand Canyon, we can see that the whole horizontal sedimentary strata sequence was folded without fracturing. The only way to explain how these sandstone and limestone beds could be folded, as though still pliable, is to conclude they were deposited during the Genesis Flood, just months before they were folded.
Carbon is found in all living things. Like a Swiss Army knife, carbon is extremely versatile. Add carbon to iron, and you get steel. Add carbon to hydrogen and oxygen, and you can produce everything from alcohol to sugar and gasoline.
In one day, our infinitely wise, all-powerful Creator laid down some dirt layers 30 miles thick that are now deep in the geologic record and foundational to the landmasses we live on. These provide us with an abundance of resources, which we use to worship and serve Him for His purposes and glory.

Geology overwhelmingly supports the historicity of the global Flood. Sediments were rapidly deposited, forming most of the fossil-bearing rock layers.

Unlike soil and dirt, which crumble when you pick them up, God created clay with plasticity, the ability to be molded.
Conventional wisdom assumes the mud in earth’s mudrocks took millions of years to settle. What do new experiments suggest?
According to God’s Word, the great Flood of Noah’s day was the most devastating catastrophe in history. Noah’s Flood ripped apart the earth. We’re not talking about boulders but whole mountains. In some places, slabs the size of cities slid dozens of miles in minutes.
The process of magma buildup, which evolutionary scientists thought would take centuries, can happen in mere decades or even years.
Even today you can touch rocks that date all the way back to God’s original creation. What do they tell us about that lost world?
We can only imagine what happened after the Flood! Consider five major examples of catastrophes that reshaped the planet.
In a few rare spots, geologists find fossils of strange eight-foot-tall “mushrooms.” What do they tell us about the mysterious world they came from?
You can see the photos, hear the stories, and read all about the Grand Canyon, but nothing compares to being there.
According to science textbooks, a series of rock layers covers the earth, representing many eras over “millions of years.” Are these charts accurate?
Diamonds are dazzling but definitely not “forever.” In fact, they wouldn’t exist without special conditions that God provided.
At today’s rate of ocean-floor buildup, chalk layers would take millions of years to form. How do creationists explain them?
Mountains and breathtaking valleys adorn our planet. Each one speaks of God’s handiwork, but they were formed by water and ice in judgment, not creation.
The Flood is impossible because one of the Grand Canyon’s layers was deposited in a desert. Or so evolutionists claim. Do the facts back them up?
Secluded in the canyon country of southern Utah is a beautiful but often overlooked state park called Kodachrome Basin.
Slot canyons, like this one in Arizona’s world-famous Antelope Canyon, are hidden just below the desert surface, waiting to delight our eyes.
The eruption of Mount St. Helens 35 years ago provided an amazing opportunity for scientists to study the effects of catastrophe.
The guides at Creation Encounter tours haven’t missed the opportunity God gave them in the Pacific Northwest.
The hypothesis that Schnebly Hill and Coconino were deposited by marine sand waves on a shallow continental shelf is strengthened in light of these new data.
PDF DownloadExplore stunning evidence consistent with the young-earth model for the earth’s geomagnetic polarity reversal during the Flood and its aftermath.
In light of these new data, alternative depositional models for the Coconino should be considered.
