| Audio/Video |
You are watching a nature show on television with your child. The film footage is impressive; the narration is interesting, adding fact upon incredible fact.
The narrator then adds another remarkable "fact": "Over millions of years, the hummingbird developed the remarkable ability to fly not only forward as other birds, but to also fly backwards and hover in midflight like a helicopter."
The next day your child comes home from school with homework for science. You notice some charts to be filled in, showing how human beings evolved over time.
What should you do?
Even if your children grow up in a Bible-believing home, in today's world they will be bombarded with the concept of evolution. But won't they just naturally absorb from you the truth about creation? No! Without your consistent instruction and guidance, your child will be taught by default one predominant picture of how the world and everything in it came to exist-evolution.
Convinced of a Creator
Following are some pointers to help your child not only refute the false teachings of evolution, but also become convinced of a Creator who is very real and who should become very real to him or her personally.
1. First, become informed yourself. You are your child's most important teacher! And God intends you to be your child's most influential teacher. But as a teacher you need to be armed with important information to pass along.
Take the time to read or view some of the materials listed under "Some Resources to Help" on the facing page. Your child's teachers at school will most likely not be taking the time to become informed about this information if they believe in evolution, so you must. Some of the books you can find at your local library, or you can find used copies of most through the Internet.
