#426 Why Creation Order is Key for Renewing America with Ken Ham

About this episode

Ken Ham discusses the importance of returning to God's created order for America's renewal.

In this week’s episode, I welcome Answers in Genesis founder Ken Ham to the podcast for a conversation on why America’s renewal must begin—not with politics, economics, or education alone—but with a return to God’s created order revealed in Genesis 1. Ken shares his personal spiritual formation in Australia, his early ministry, and the remarkable story behind his move to America and the founding of Answers in Genesis. He also explores how abandoning Genesis as literal history has weakened the foundations of truth, identity, marriage, family, morality, and human dignity (that about covers it) throughout Western culture. This conversation examines why the battle for America is ultimately theological before it is political and why lasting renewal cannot come merely through elections, policy reforms, or cultural activism disconnected from Biblical authority. Ken explains how Genesis establishes the framework for understanding home, church, and state—and why recovering a Biblical worldview begins with restoring confidence in God’s Word from the very first verse.
