Answers in Genesis is an apologetics (i.e., Christianity-defending) ministry, dedicated to enabling Christians to defend their faith and to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ effectively. We focus particularly on providing answers to questions surrounding the book of Genesis, as it is the most-attacked book of the Bible. We also desire to train others to develop a biblical worldview, and seek to expose the bankruptcy of evolutionary ideas, and its bedfellow, a “millions of years old” earth (and even older universe).
At the Institute for Creation Research, we want you to know God’s Word can be trusted with everything it speaks about—from how and why we were made, to how the universe was formed, to how we can know God and receive all He has planned for us.
That’s why ICR scientists have spent more than 50 years researching scientific evidence that refutes evolutionary philosophy and confirms the Bible’s account of a recent and special creation. We regularly receive testimonies from around the world about how ICR’s cutting-edge work has impacted thousands of people with God’s creation truth.
Reasons to Believe (RTB) exists to spread the Christian gospel by demonstrating that sound reason and scientific research- including the very latest discoveries- consistently support, rather than erode, confidence in the truth of the Bible and faith in the personal, transcendent God revealed in both Scripture and nature. We specifically engage influencers, educators, pastors, and other leaders with our integrative creation model, while we encourage and equip fellow believers to participate with us in our mission.
RTB's leadership team affirms the following distinguishing characteristics as ministry core values :
1. A high view of both Scripture and science
2. Apologetics for the sake of evangelism
3. Constructive integration
4. Commitment to application
5. Ongoing development of a testable creation model
6. Readiness to give reasons... (1 Peter 3:15a)
7. ...with gentleness, respect, and a clear conscience (1 Peter 3:15b)
