In recent years, Christians have become more alarmed over climate change. Both secular and Christian voices have urged them to heed the “all-but-unanimous scientific consensus” on the issue. But is that consensus based on solid science?

This is a personal account of Dr. Brian Thomas’ spiritual and intellectual journey from non-believing science student to Christian conversion, to his intellectual struggle with Genesis, to his later career as a research scientist and communicator of the gospel and wonders of God’s creation. This account takes us to discussions of a wide variety of scientific fields, some less familiar to us than others. It totally broadens our horizons in a non-confrontational way.

Darwin’s Sandcastle: Evolution’s Failure in the Light of Scripture and the Scientific Evidence

This overview of young earth science shows us that there are many more issues involved in origins than just the fossil record and DNA. Were there always predatory and disease-causing organisms? Do their features demonstrate design too? What does plate tectonics mean? Why do we care about fossils and DNA anyway? This book provides answers on many issues important to Christians.

Fossil Tissues: Digging into the Biomaterial Mystery

In the Creation Collection Series

During the past two decades, many people who follow scientific news, have been fascinated by accounts of fossils which contain non-fossilized organic material. These remains consist of original biochemical compounds or parts thereof from fossilized specimens of extinct creatures. The first report involved the accidental discovery of soft tissues inside a T. rex bone. Although the scientist who made the discovery was herself a mainstream scientist, there were many critiques of this work since the idea that organic molecules like proteins could resist decay for millions of years, did not seem possible. It still doesn’t.

Brian Thomas of Institute for Creation Research, whose Ph.D. research involved similar research, in this booklet documents the subsequent cascade of discoveries of many fossilized animals and even some plants that still contain undecomposed material.

Dr. Thomas describes explanations used by mainstream scientists to try to explain these highly unexpected results. Over several chapters Dr. Thomas demonstrates that only a short time interval can explain the persistence of these proteins, collagen and other compounds. The remains of DNA is especially surprising since it is such a fragile compound.

If ever there was a stimulating and fun account of the results of research on an origins topic, this is it!   (Dr. Thomas discussed this topic at Creation Weekend 2025 but this book was not out yet.)

When you visit this museum, be sure to go armed with this booklet. It highlights interesting details and fascinating insights concerning the displays in the museum. All commentary in the booklet is from a creation-based perspective. This guide comes complete with a map of the major exhibits in the museum.

This handy booklet highlights fascinating insights to the displays in the museum. Dinosaurs and
marine reptiles are on display as expected, but there is also a large section which provides
arguments for evolution. This guide provides answers to the arguments and fascinating details
concerning the dinosaurs and other fossils. This guide comes complete with a map of the major
exhibits in the museum.

Shipping cost for one copy is only $2.

Enclosed with this guide is a list of topics you can search on HeadStart our online resource that provides more detailed discussion of some related and important issues such as origin of life arguments, and evolution related topics like the geological column, rock record, fossils (what are they?), Cambrian explosion, extinct Alberta creatures (mostly marine reptiles) and dinosaurs (a separate topic).

Naturally one can only absorb limited amounts of information as one proceeds through the museum. However, the guide also serves as a briefing source of further insights once one has left Drumheller.

Evolution’s Failure in the Light of Scripture and the Scientific Evidence

This overview of young earth science shows us that there are many more issues involved in origins than just the fossil record and DNA. Were there always predatory and disease-causing organisms? Do their features demonstrate design too? What does plate tectonics mean? Why do we care about fossils and DNA anyway? This book provides answers on many issues important to Christians.

This is a landmark book on apologetics which deals with scripture, science and the current cultural milieu which plagues our society. The book is written for all interested Christians but especially for those who wonder about the reliability of the early chapters in Genesis. Each section is interesting and beautifully documented. People concerned about social action and politics will be especially interested in the third section of this volume.

Book Review

This us an exceptionally interesting and beautiful book.  Anyone who enjoys interesting new ideas, beautiful patterns and mathematics, will certainly want a copy of this book. You will be surprised how commonly fractals can be found in nature. Another testimony to the wonders of Creation!

There are young adults all over the continent who are anxious to survive their studies in postsecondary institutions with faith intact. Patricia Engler is someone who succeeded in this endeavour. She shares her experiences and advice with us all. Her upbeat tone and practical advice cannot fail to encourage everyone.

Read a review of No Christian Silence on Science

Contrary to the evolutionary view that predicts sloppy design in nature, engineers are finding amazing natural design solutions for many of our technological problems. With a resume that includes designing machines for industry, medicine and space exploration, Drs. Burgess and Statham share some interesting insights into the design process.

Social conflict over climate change is something that Christians cannot afford to ignore. While
we all agree that we must treat our environment with care and respect, our mandate is to
“contribute knowledgeably to the discussion and care for God’s creation in a way that
recognizes man as the height of his created order.” (p. 59) This booklet provides information
and graphs to assist us with the need to be knowledgeable and caring.

The legacy of Darwin’s speculations on evolution has led to terrible incidents of racism. This book examines the historical roots of racism and the Bible’s response to it, the truth that God created only one race.

Each of the 14 chapters discusses some specialized aspect of human biology such as maintaining our body temperature, the immune system, or protecting the body from too much sun. Each discussion is followed by a devotional page and then in depth questions on that topic. Detailed answers are next provided. This book can function as a complement to the dvd series of the same name, or as a stand alone discussion.
