The Geology Book Curriculum - The Feldspar Family (507C) $41.00

Feldspar is the most abundant mineral on earth!  There are also many varieties.  The study of feldspars is a very interesting one, although somewhat confusing one.  It is difficult to tell some of the feldspars apart.  Feldspars are found in all three rock types and are important in identifying different rocks.  Here are 18 samples for closer study.

 

The Geology Book Curriculum - The Genesis Flood Study Pack (1008) $46.00

The standard for the study of Geology and earth history during the 17th and 18th centuries was the Genesis account of the great worldwide flood.  This was known as Catastrophism.  It was held by most of the scientists of the day and was not replaced until Charles Lyell came along in the early 1800s.  Today there is a revival among many geologists to take a closer look at Catastrophism, albeit, without the Bible.  This book is a fascinating look at the Biblical account and its geological implications.  This has become my favorite book and it is exhaustive, well-written and authoritative.  I was personally acquainted with the late Dr. Henry Morris.  He was a fine man and his knowledge of geology and hydrology was encyclopedic.  Included with the book are 10 large samples of rocks, fossils and minerals that could have been formed by this most important geologic event in our history! Fascinating reading!

The Young Earth Study Pack (1009) $51.00

This book will make you think!  From a scientific perspective, this book looks at a number of stimulating challenges to the concept of an old earth.  It comes with 11 rocks, minerals and fossils that could all be considerably younger than the typical dating methods would indicate.

 

The Geology Book Curriculum - The Properties of Quartz (1010) $51.00

18 great samples that show the varieties in the mineral quartz.  This set includes a highly sought after tangerine crystal quartz and the Uruguay "eye" agate.

The Building Blocks of Rocks (1011) $41.00

Rocks and minerals are not the same thing.  A rock is made up of more than one mineral.  I think Geology becomes fun when I can take a rock and identify its mineral make-up.  Here is a kit with 18 samples of the most common minerals which make up rocks. 

 

The Geology Book Curriculum - The Building Blocks of Rocks - Study Group (1012) $68.00

A nice group of kits containing a total of 30 specimens of 10 each of calcite, quartz and feldspar.  Together these minerals make up most of the rocks we will find.  This would be a great resource for an identification project.

The Missoula Flood Controversy by Michael J Oard $25.00 (price includes shipping)

Early in the 20th Century a geologist by the name of J Harland Bretz discovered remnants of what he considered to have been carved from a huge flood that ripped through the hard basalt lava flows of Eastern Washington.  What he observed was nothing short of catastrophic geology at work.  He published his work and went public with his discoveries.  Now, you have to understand that Mr. Bretz was advocating views that were anathema to the Geology community of those days.  Geologists were not about to allow anything remotely associated with "catastrophes" be supported by "science".  It would sound too similar to the Genesis Flood or some religious myth like it.  So, Mr. Bretz was literally persecuted for his research for over 50 years.  Finally in the 1970s with great progress in aerial photography, geologists began to recognize the truth of Mr. Bretz's work.  This book is the story of that controversy and his research.  What is fascinating about this story is that it clearly shows the biases of so-called modern science.  Why geologists would not embrace Bretz's work lies in the entrenched view of uniformitarianism-the view that earth history was slowly over millions of years shaped by processes of deposition, wind and erosion.  Catastrophes were simply not part of the picture.  This book is a great read!

Rock Solid Answers - The Biblical Truth Behind 14 Geological Questions edited by Michael Oard and John K. Reed $27.00 (price includes shipping)

This book is for the more serious student of geology.  This book covers 14 geologic puzzlers that are used to support an old earth.  Now, if these are in fact solid scientific evidences for an old earth, the Bible's view of earth history is in error.  The book takes a second look at these landforms and gives a brilliant alternative view of their formation.  Another great book on young earth geology.  I would recommend this book for the high school through college student.  A thick paperback book of 267 pages and lots of illustrations that thoroughly support a young earth geology.

Our Created Moon - Earth's Fascinating Neighbor, by Don DeYoung and John Whitcomb $25.00 (price includes shipping)

When I was a kid I was taught that the Moon was solid proof that the earth was old - billions of years old.  This book sets the record straight!  It is beautifully illustrated with lots of study questions and excellently laid out for classroom study.  Not only will your student learn many new and fascinating things about the Moon, but will also receive great instruction in why a young age for the Moon is geologically and scientifically sound.

The Genesis Equipping Kit $80.00

Looking for something to equip your high school student to properly understand the book of Genesis? Here are 4 outstanding books written by scientists who all share the "straight-forward reading" approach to interpreting the Bible.

The Genesis Flood is now a classic in the area of flood geology. Its insights into the universal flood record of Genesis are indispensable.

John Morris's book The Young Earth offers valuable notes and insights on hotly-debated issues such as radiometric dating.

The Great Turning Point by Terry Mortenson is a must-read if you want to thoroughly understand how scientific thinking changed, the forces that changed it and how the church capitulated, not on scientific ground, but on philosophical grounds. This has to be my favorite book related to the history of science.

Michael Oard's book, Frozen in Time is written from a meteorological perspective. Mr. Oard, now retired, worked for the National Weather Service for many years. His insights into a one "ice age" caused by the Genesis Flood are outstanding. It put together so many pieces of the "ice age" puzzle for me.

In addition there is a laminated chart showing the actual ages and genealogical record of all the Patriarchs from Adam through Joseph. This handy chart allows the student to quickly compare the Scriptural record with opposing views.

Genesis and Ancient Man
$175.00 (includes shipping)

One of the most disturbing things to my faith as a kid was finding out that my ancient relatives were really not human after all, but apelike!  It literally crushed any faith in the Old Testament.  Later as I began to revisit the validity of the Old Testament as history, I discovered a wealth of literature that contradicted the current thinking about ancient man.  So, for the curious (and inwardly challenged) parents and teens, here is a kit that will help you build a solid foundation in the historicity of Genesis and of ancient man.  This kit includes:

Genesis and the Ice Age
$170.00 (includes shipping)

One of the biggest mysteries for modern geology is how to explain the Ice Age (or ice ages, depending on whom you read). No modern weather scenario develops an ice age. Of course if the Ice Age happened when geologists say it did, then the Bible cannot be true, as the last vestiges of the Wholly Mammoth supposedly died out over 12,000 years ago. And the Bible definitely teaches a young earth. So, where do I turn for another look at this real geologic event in the history of mankind? I have compiled some of the most recent material that will help you and your teen get a grasp on how the Ice Age nicely fits into a straightforward reading of the Book of Genesis.

Genesis - Rock Solid is a short (70 pages) book and a quick read.  So you don't have to spend long hours trying to decipher the typical geologic language.  There is a brief personal story describing my journey from evolutionist to a Genesis view of earth history.   This little book gives a basic overview of this most critical piece of history in the development of Western Civilization.  Most people do not know the history of modern geology.  It is one of a shift in philosophy, a way of looking at earth history, not a shift from religion to science.  The church's reaction to the development of modern geology has been to compromise its position on a straight forward reading of the Book of Genesis.  But when it comes to accepting a literal resurrection of Jesus, the church has no problem.  This presents a dilemma!  How can we accept a literal resurrection because it is described in the Gospels and yet not accept a literal 6 Day Creation and Global Flood written about in Genesis?  Either they are both historical, accurate and correct, or they are both wrong and just myth.  In addition to the historical perspective, my book shows how the Genesis Flood can explain many of the landforms that are still a mystery in modern geology."  Junior High through Adult - $10 (price includes the shipping)
