Story or Science?

Some of our kids at one of the Creation Museum's exhibits

One of the things that is lacking in the Christian church of our day is an understanding of the link between science and the things that we see, and the Scriptures and what we do not see. We refer to science and what scientists study as "facts," while the truth of the Bible regarding things such as the flood of the earth and the creation of man are referred to as "stories."

And so a disconnect forms between what we may have learned from secular science and what we read in the Scriptures, which ultimately can undermine the Truth and shipwreck someone's faith.

One of the best ministries out there on the front lines of this battle for truth is Answer's in Genesis and it's popular Creation Museum.

We visited the museum for the first time this past year and loved it. It was a great way to spend time together as a family and at the same time, lay a foundation of establishing the Bible as more than stories, but as facts and truth that help to explain and make sense of the world around us.

If you haven't gotten the chance to visit it yet, make it a goal to bring you and your family this year. I don't think you will be disappointed, and the lessens learned are priceless.
