Ham, a native Australian now residing near Cincinnati, Ohio, is the author of numerous books on Genesis, the accuracy and authority of the Bible, dinosaurs and the destructive fruits of evolutionary thinking (including a popular book on the “races” and racism, One Blood: The Biblical Answer to Racism). He also hosts a daily radio program (Answers … with Ken Ham), heard on more than 750 stations worldwide and is one of the editors and contributing authors for Creation magazine (with subscribers in 140 countries).
About Answers in Genesis
In 1980, Dr. Carl Wieland, Ken Ham and others saw that the church in their own country, Australia, was struggling and often compromising its biblical integrity in the face of the ever-increasing attacks from those hostile to Christianity. They realized that most Christians were not equipped to provide answers to a "doubting" world in a so-called age of science.
In response to these observations, they began speaking on creation/evolution issues?equipping the church to answer the skeptics, and encouraging the body of Christ to trust in the authority of God's Word. Additionally, Dr. Wieland began publishing the magazine now called Creation (formerly Creation ex nihilo) as a way for believers to stay up-to-date on the latest issues in the creation/evolution arena (Creation magazine currently goes to subscribers in over 140 countries!). Listen as he explains further about the beginnings of AiG and the magazine in these two interviews:
