Episode 128: The Truth About Our Worldview
If we want the next generation to be God-followers, standing firm on His Word without apology, we need to be intentionally teaching the kids in our lives how to do this. Our guest, Ken Ham, is the founder of Answers in Genesis, an apologetics organization founded on the words from 1 Peter 3:15 which tell us to be ready to give an answer for what we believe. You may know Ken from his famous debates with Bill Nye the Science guy, or possibly you’ve visited one of his two parks, the Creation Museum & Ark Encounter. Regardless of whether or not you’ve heard of Ken, you’re in for a treat as he speaks to the difference between teaching children HOW to think instead of WHAT to think, and the importance of starting our thinking from God’s Word, not man’s.
Ready to hear how to build up a next generation of people who will stand firm on a Biblical worldview? Let’s go!
KEN HAM is the founder and CEO of Answers in Genesis and its two popular attractions: the acclaimed Creation Museum and the internationally known Ark Encounter, which features a life-size 510-foot-long Noah’s Ark—sometimes described as the “8th Wonder of the Modern World.” Each year, the two attractions host over 1.5 million guests. A much-in-demand Christian speaker and interview guest, Ham became well known throughout America for his 2014 evolution/creation debate with Bill Nye, TV’s “The Science Guy.” Ham hosts the daily radio program Answers, now on 1,000 stations. He’s also the founder of the award-winning Answers magazine. In 2020, Ham launched Answers TV, an ambitious streaming service. His website of AnswersInGenesis.org has twice won the top award from the National Religious Broadcasters for best website.
A prolific blogger and author of more than 30 books, Ham’s newest releases are Divided Nation (about today’s culture wars) and the devotional commentary Creation to Babel.
Ken and his wife, Mally, have 5 children and 18 grandchildren and reside in Northern Kentucky.

In a world full of busyness and distractions, it can be hard to keep our focus on God. The more you know the Bible and the more you know God, the clearer, safer and sharper your lens is to process the world. This is known as a Biblical Worldview — seeing the world through God’s holy lens, brought into focus by the Bible. This simple and fun optical illusion activity will help guide you through teaching your child how and why we need to keep our focus on God.
