So my overall thought on the Museum is that it was well worth the drive time, gas, hotel, achy feet, speeding ticket (lol, yea I got one), and any other trouble incurred to see this place. It is a titan of Christianity shouting the gospel out against the changing winds of this world. I know that it meant a lot to me to take part in this as I had waited for some time now and it seemed to mean just as much to my friend.
Places like this are a rare commodity in a world where many Christians see the terms "Creationist" and "Christian" as two separate topics. As if a Christian can be so without a biblical Creation. That would be the equivalent of saying "I'm Christian but I don't believe in Christ" or "I'm Christian but I don't believe in the resurrection" or "I'm Christian but I don't believe in the Bible." These are the pillars that Christianity stands on. They will never crack or break, but if you don't use them you are without stability, without Gods grace given anchors and ultimately without reason for excluding them.
Anyway, this place which amounts to more than 27 Million (built on donations) is a beacon of reason and hope though you may hear otherwise for some time to come. It is a shame that so many came that day and likely the days that followed just to scoff and speak of "reason" as their true motivations. While the truth is reason is far from their motivations and I wonder how many standing their shouting are aware of that. They are shouting and picketing for autonomy and rebellion of authority. Anyhow, I wonder how many atheists will come to mock and find truth. How many weakened Christians will come looking for answers to old age and evolutionary ideologies and find renewed hope in the form of answers and rebukings.
While the museum certainly provides a rich and heart tugging experience to those who go even more answers and hope can be found at AiGs web ministry. It is all text and pictures, but until you get to the museum this is a wonderful place to educate and strengthen your faiths. It was for me. So, I wonder what is next on the horizon for this ministry if anything. Another museum overseas? A theme park of similar quality? An online school of sorts? Who knows, but I hope this titan keeps building and moving over the lands, doing the work God would have it do.
Images will be coming next...hang in there.
