Exploring the natural world to better understand the one who made it.

Orchard of Life Science™ is your online portal into the marvelous worlds of science, nature, and natural history. Written from a distinctly young age creationist perspective, our articles and resources encourage Christians to celebrate the wonders of creation while equipping them to study and explore it more fully.

More than just Creation vs. Evolution

"The success of the creation movement depends not on our ability to point out the faults of Darwinism, but on our ability to demonstrate the explanatory power of the Christian worldview."

"The success of the creation movement depends not on our ability to point out the faults of Darwinism, but on our ability to demonstrate the explanatory power of the Christian worldview."

Our beliefs about history have a profound influence over the way we view the natural world. As such, the question of origins plays a foundational role in our study of nature. At Orchard of Life Science, we believe the following:

  • The Bible is the inerrant word of God and is a trustworthy source of history.
  • The universe and everything that is in it was created only a few thousand years ago over the course of six ordinary days, as recorded in Genesis 1.
  • Life is a direct creation of God and its many varieties, rather than descending from a single common ancestor, are the results of distinct and separate creative acts. These originally created organisms have since diversified into the many species we know today.
  • The Flood of Noah, as an event, was both real and global in scale and played a significant role in shaping the biology and geology of our present world.

While many of our materials do spend time justifying these beliefs, we also realize that apologetics is only the very beginning of the conversation. As in the parable of the unclean spirit (Matthew 12:43-52), it does no good to remove falsehood if it is not replaced with truth. In this way, we must realize that the success of the creation movement depends not merely on our ability to point out the faults of Darwinism, but also on our ability to demonstrate the explanatory power of the Christian worldview.

It is this latter goal to which we give our main focus, promoting a distinctly biblical philosophy of science through our publications and research with the hopes of equipping and inspiring the next generation of creation scientists.
