Read a review of this book

These highly qualified authors demonstrate from the latest scientific literature that similarity in fossil anatomy, and DNA sequences does not prove evolutionary descent of humans from chimps. What is more, mutation rates leading to new information (if they occur at all) are far, far too slow to ever bring about such a transition. Interesting and well documented. Suitable for readers able to handle a somewhat technical discussion.

In the land of the “brave. and the free” some academics have suffered damage to their careers because of their Christian faith. Others, who merely expressed doubts about Darwinism, suffered because colleagues suspected they might have a religious agenda. An informed public is the first line of defense against these situations.

Today, some of the world’s best minds — in a variety of disciplines — grapple with whether there is any real purpose to our lives. Yet not only do many scientists believe in the God who created us with purpose, they also understand that what we do in the here and now has consequences in the next life. In this volume scientists discuss everything from archaeology to cosmology, philosophy and the human body.

The author sets out to establish how Christians can establish the authority of the never-changing Word of God over the ever changing words of man. Basing his discussion largely on Scripture itself, he describes the deficiencies in the various attempts to accomodate Scripture to science. An important book for people who want to know why beliefs have consequences.

Learn more about the man who plotted to “murder God” by changing the dominant, and biblical, worldview of the time. Look beyond the public facade to the deeply troubling man within.

Unearthing Nature’s History of Life
In this new title, aimed at high school readers, we find a nicely illustrated, but not overwhelmingly technical discussion of fossils. Don’t let yourself be overwhelmed by evolutionary arguments! This introduction is fun to read with interesting insights on issues like the supposed evolution of whales, origin of animals with backbones, and animals which walk on four feet.

Unlocking Earth’s Geologic History
The Global Flood presents the evidence in a way that clearly demonstrates why the biblical account of the Flood matters to all who want to understand and communicate the truth with confidence.

The author considers the arguments of arch-atheist Richard Dawkins and he shows that Biblical creation makes more sense of the issues than does Dawkins’ materialism.

Brand new updated edition! Notes provide cross references and information on historical and scientific details of the text as well as well as the traditional interpretation. A very valuable resource, and a marked contrast to the modernistic notes provided in many other study Bibles. Includes index to major topics in annotations, many other useful appendices and concordance and full colour maps. Excellent gift for special occasions.

Readers will enjoy the insights on how to analyze and defend themselves against arguments for evolution. With practice on examples provided, they will feel a lot more confident in discussions with others.

Sometimes it is helpful to return to topics which were popular in the past. The age of the earth and (radiometric) dating is one such topic. This book discusses many important issues concerning dating of rocks and extinct creatures. Starting with a clear presentation of basic ideas, this book then proceeds to discuss interesting studies. Every bit of insight is helpful. A chapter on the reliability of Scripture concludes the book.

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. The booklet comes with a map of major dinosaur exhibits and links to further discussion online of some topics like the geological column.

Shipping cost for one copy is only $2.

An entirely new feature is the use of the HeadStart online resource to provide 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.

The author guides the reader from Ur to the land of the Pharaohs and to the New Testament. Rich illustrations accompany discussions of the archaeological significance of related discoveries. A fascinating resource for anyone interested in Biblical archaeology and its place in history.

There is no doubt that the artifacts of ancient Eygpt exert a certain fascination on most people. However the standard interpretation of Eygptian history is difficult to fit into a Biblical context. This book, richly accompanied by beautiful photographs, demonstrates how Eygyptian and Biblical history are in close agreement. Highly recommended.
