Remembering Tommy Mitchell in Photos

by Ken Ham on September 21, 2019

Tomorrow, Sunday, we will celebrate the life and homegoing of our friend and AiG colleague Dr. Tommy Mitchell. As we shared four days ago, Tommy, a terrific speaker and talented writer at AiG for almost 15 years, passed away in his adopted Kentucky. A celebration of his life and legacy will be held in Cincinnati on Sunday at 6 p.m. (with visitation from 3 p.m.–6 p.m.) at Friendship Baptist Church, where Tommy and his wife Liz attended.*

As you pray for the whole family, including his daughters Mary, Ashley, and Sarah, please be encouraged as you learn about this wonderful defender of the Christian faith through these photos. He travelled the world giving lectures on creation-apologetics and wrote countless articles and several science books. He also produced videos on a wide range of topics, from dinosaurs to an answer to the often-asked question of why a loving, all-powerful God allows suffering and, yes, death in this world.

In no particular order:

  • Ken and Tommy

    A younger Tommy takes a break from the 1999 Hendersonville AiG seminar he chaired to take this photo with Ken Ham and compare gaudy ties. The Nashville-area conference drew several thousand people. The friendship between the two men would become quite strong over the next 20 years.


Your prayers of comfort for Tommy’s family and AiG colleagues are much appreciated this weekend. Thank you.
