In response to many of the arguments and compromises concerning our beginnings, Ron Bigalke, Jr. has compiled several discussions from many brilliant leaders in the church who accept Genesis at face value in The Genesis Factor, from Master Books.

Many of these essays are mere summarizations each author’s work in that particular area, but each chapter digs deep enough to give the reader a significant understanding of the topic. Covering many different subjects, from evidences of a young earth in the geologic column to the oceans to the atmosphere and beyond, and a deeper look at many different facets of Noah’s flood, The Genesis Factor is a great starting point for understanding the massive amount of detailed evidence available that shores up the foundations of God’s Word, beginning in Genesis.

Many often ask why such topics matter. Isn’t it enough to believe in a Creator, regardless of how he created? The answer is that it does matter, tremendously. If we allow compromise or even outright reject God’s Word as he revealed it concerning our origins, what else might we reject or compromise that we dislike? Rejecting the literal truth of Genesis starts us down a slippery slope that will eventually lead us to a point of no return. We must accept Genesis as literal history. One of the final chapters gives multiple reasons why this is so crucial.

While a lot of these essays were deep and weighty, reading like the technical scientific information that they are, this book is full of incredible resources that can help you defend your faith, and the historicity of Genesis.

I fully recommend that you add this to your library today!
