Many skeptics of the Bible, and even fellow Christians, have wondered how Noah could’ve fit all the millions of modern animal species on the Ark. He would have needed a fleet of cargo ships! But Noah didn’t take all the species on the Ark! Noah was only commanded to take every kind of land-dwelling, air-breathing … Read More
Why should you believe in creation, and not evolution? I mean, scientifically speaking. Haven’t we proven that evolution is a fact? The theories of evolution would indicate that life is the result of chance processes over millions of years. It would claim that life, and all of life’s systems, have slowly evolved from simple to … Read More
We brush it, cut it, curl it, straighten it, shave it, gel it, spike it, and dye it, but have we ever really stopped and thought about it? The hair found on our heads, and pretty much everywhere else on our bodies except our palms and soles, is incredibly complex. Not that that should surprise … Read More
The richness and variety of foods, flavors, and combinations of those flavors is perhaps one of our Creator’s greatest gifts to us. He didn’t just give us foods that contain the basic nutrients for life so that we could stay alive. He gave us thousands of different fruit, vegetable, grain, and meat options, spices and … Read More
Here at David Rives Ministries, we talk a lot about Genesis and how easy it is to read and understand the first book of the Bible.

After Noah and his family got off the Ark God gave them a simple command, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth.” But just two chapters later we read the response of Noah’s descendants, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top is in the heavens; let us make a … Read More
Has a vague scent in the air ever caught your attention? You know you’ve smelled it somewhere before but you just don’t know where? Well, our sense of smell is incredible and many scents are strongly linked with memories. The average adult can distinguish 10,000 different scents from baking bread, to a favorite perfume, to … Read More
I was studying some geological formations not long ago, and started wondering why we have so many different types of rocks and soils. Surely God could have created the Earth with a few basic minerals? Why so much variety? That got me to thinking: why do I have a red sweater and a blue one? … Read More
We’ve all heard the story: Isaac Newton was sitting under an apple tree, saw an apple fall to the ground, and, viola, discovered gravity. Of course, the real story is much longer and more complicated than that. But Newton, who was a mathematician, physicist, and Bible-believing Christian, did describe gravity for the first time in … Read More
Have you ever wondered how you can hear my voice, or any other sound? Our sensitive ears can pick up the faint whisper of the breeze, the buzz of a bee’s wings, or the patter of rain on a puddle. These same ears can withstand music blaring in our headphones, a baby screaming, or a … Read More
Why should you believe in creation, and not evolution? I mean, scientifically speaking. Haven’t we proven that evolution is a fact? When most people hear the term “evolution” they think of one kind of animal turning into another kind of animal. This is biological evolution and it’s just one of several different kinds of evolution. … Read More
During certain times of the year, star-gazers are treated to the sight of the second planet in our solar system, Venus, which appears as a bright white orb. This planet, which is similar in size and structure to Earth, was named for the Roman goddess of love. Venus has a thick atmosphere that traps in … Read More
Every time a new comet is spotted that was previously undocumented, it is claimed that the comet originated from the Oort Cloud. Articles, magazines, and scientific reports begin claiming that the comet left this proposed cloud tens of thousands of years ago, and is just getting to our solar system. But what is the Oort … Read More
The Bible tells us that “the heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament shows His handiwork.” Astronomy is one of my passions. I love looking through telescopes and seeing the incredible and beautiful things God has made and placed throughout the universe for His glory. Researchers estimate there are at least 170 billion … Read More
While the most famous discovery of dinosaur soft tissue didn’t come until 2005, scientists have been reporting the discovery of soft tissue and proteins in a wide variety of fossils since the 1970’s. They’ve found things like catfish fatty fins, unaltered amino acids preserved in amber, even what appears to be dinosaur DNA from a … Read More
Tiny homes are all the rage these days. There are even TV shows dedicated to showcasing these little custom dwellings. But if you think that 300 square feet is minimalist, what if I told you about a comfortable home with a floor plan of less than one – square inch! That’s right, for the average … Read More
Have you heard of the Oort Cloud? For years, Cosmologists have discussed some type of Cloud or band that would explain the existence of long-period comets. Maybe a bit of background would be helpful, so let’s back it up a bit, and start with one of the most popular theories for solar system origins. Remember, … Read More
You’ve probably heard the conventional story of how the rock layers formed. The most popular story is that rock layers form slowly over millions of years by the same geologic processes we see operating today. Weathering and erosion then produced hills, valleys, and the other topographical features we see today. But a quick trip into … Read More
In the days before Darwin and naturalistic scientists like him, there were philosophers theorizing about God, the supernatural, and miracles. One such philosopher was David Hume, who lived during the eighteenth century. This Scottish thinker is best remembered for his influential system of thought that included empiricism, skepticism, and naturalism. Hume disregarded miracles and argued … Read More
Many people, including many Christians, take the idea of millions of years for granted. They simply assume it’s true and try and fit the long ages somehow into the Bible. But it wasn’t always this way. The earliest geologists used the Bible’s framework of a few thousand years of history and a word-changing global Flood … Read More
H.G. Wells, the author of over 100 books and the founder of the genre of science fiction, was a contemporary of Darwin. He was raised in a Christian home but after studying evolution in university, including studying under “Darwin’s bulldog,” Sir Thomas Huxley, he was convinced of evolution, and eventually became an atheist. He’s now … Read More

If you pay attention while you’re watching TV shows and movies you might be surprised by the amount of evolutionary content the writers and producers work into the finished product. Everything from kids’ movies about the Ice Age, to Flintstones cartoons, to sci-fi movies have subtle (or not-so-subtle) messages of evolution or millions of years. … Read More
Let’s talk about Astronomy for a minute…. The Bible says the heavens declare the glory of God but there is a theory that says that 14 billion years ago, everything started on its own, purely by accident. But how do you even get the first star to form when a Big Bang would send all … Read More
Many of the most prestigious universities here in America, as well as other places like the U.K., were originally Christian colleges. Yale, Princeton, and Harvard, among others, were all found-ed by Christians and they originally proclaimed the truths found in the Bible. But what happened? Today we certainly don’t think of these ivy-league schools as … Read More
Evolutionary ideas are all around us. Every time you turn on the TV, watch the news, or read a science magazine you will more than likely find evolutionary content. How did this philosophy become so popular that it literally took over science? Evolution owes much of its popularity to a guy you’re probably familiar with…Charles … Read More
Evolution is taught as undisputed fact in public schools across the nation. Each day millions of children learn that life arose naturalistically over millions of years of slow, gradual processes. They learn that we’re all related through one common ancestor, most recently an ape-like ancestor. Students are rarely taught the major problems with evolutionary ideas … Read More
When many people think of evolution they think of a scientific idea that has little to do with their daily lives. They may, or may not, believe it is how mankind got here but, so what?!? What difference does it make? Well, throughout history there have been men and women who’ve taken Darwin’s ideas to … Read More
In 2005, Dr. Mary Schweitzer shocked the scientific world when her team reported the presence of blood vessels, red blood cells, and collagen in a T-Rex femur. That’s right—soft tissue in a dinosaur bone! This T-Rex was thought to be over 65 million years old and yet it had fresh looking soft tissue inside its … Read More
