Synopsis

Young Earth advocates often use the Grand Canyon as a showcase to argue not only that the thick fossil-bearing layers were laid down in a single catastrophic flood, but that the Bible requires this to be true. In The Grand Canyon, eleven authors and editors--all scientists and apologists--address both the biblical and scientific claims that Noah's flood can account for the Earth's fossil-rich layers. Like many in the scientific community, they find these assumptions to be riddled with factual errors.

This visually stunning book is written primarily for nonscientist Christians who have a desire to clearly understand the arguments and evidence in favor of both young- and old-Earth models, to find answers to those who make the Grand Canyon's majesty the centerpiece of their arguments, or to improve their ministry to scientifically literate believers and seekers.

Readers will learn that Young Earth interpretations of Genesis are not necessarily true to the original Hebrew meaning. They will come away with an appreciation for why the vast majority of Christian geologists acknowledge an ancient Earth and why modern science is not antithetical to faith, but rather supports it. Readers will find that the Grand Canyon has a much grander history--in keeping with its Creator&mdashthan the brief period of compressed creation posited by flood geologists.

Media Reviews
A must read for anyone interested in the direct testimony of Creation itself on the history of our world.--David R. Montgomery, Author of The Rocks Don't Lie: A Geologist Investigates Noah's Flood (02/01/2016)
... irenic in spirit, scientifically informed, and biblically sound.--Paul Copan Palm Beach Atlantic University (02/01/2016)
The various authors of this book have done us all a tremendous service in their patient and clear exposition of geological thinking about the Grand Canyon (a magnificent place in it own right!).--C. John Jack Collins Covenant Theological Seminary (02/01/2016)
...richly illustrated, superbly organized, and exceptionally readable overview of the Grand Canyon.--John W. Geissman, President Emeritus Geological Society of America (02/01/2016)
This important book must be carefully considered by everyone involved in the debate about the age of the earth.--Wayne Grudem Phoenix University (02/01/2016)
The authors, most of whom are Christians, have systematically contrasted the claims of so-called 'flood geologists' with the actual details of Grand Canyon geology. In doing so, they have utterly demolished the flood hypothesis with an avalanche of geologic evidence sufficient to fill a canyon.-- (02/01/2016)
The Grand Canyon ... is terrific. It is a comprehensive primer on geology as we know and practice it... Everyone on Earth should be aware of what this book contains as a science text, as well as a rationale for employing scientific methods to a basic understanding of anything natural.-- (02/01/2016)
