Imani Ellis has always believed community is a superpower. What began as a small gathering in her Harlem apartment grew into The Creative Collective NYC and CultureCon — one of the largest conferences celebrating creators of color. But behind the highlight reels and celebrity speakers, Imani’s journey has been defined by burnout, bold leaps and learning when to pause. In this episode, Ben and Kathleen sit down with Imani and explore what it takes to transform a passion project into a cultural movement. From balancing a demanding career at NBCUniversal with late-night CultureCon planning, to walking away from work at the height of burnout for a self-designed “creative residency” in Paris, Imani shares the realities of leadership, rest and why joy and community must stay at the center of her work.

Do We Deny Climate Change?

23 hours ago

—

This is Ken Ham, often a guest on radio and TV on the Bible’s authority and reliability. We repeatedly hear the claim that creationists are “climate-change deniers.” But very few people actually deny climate change. It’s observable that climates do change. For example, people used to farm in Greenland, and yet it’s much too cold for that now. Climates change. But what we do deny are the worldview-based assumptions made by many of those who believe in radical man-made climate change. Since we start with a different foundation, God’s Word instead of evolutionary ideas, it’s no surprise we come to different conclusions. You see, your starting point influences your interpretation even on climate change. Dig Deeper Climate Crisis or Media Hype?

The Evidence Confirms the Bible

4 days ago

This is Ken Ham, author , speaker , and blogger on why we can trust the Bible. For the last two weeks, we’ve seen that all Christians should be creationists. Here’s our final reason why. Scripture is clear that God created in six days and that he did not use evolution. And yet many Christians embrace millions of years and evolution because “science says . . . .” But science confirms the Bible! Genesis tells us life reproduces after its kind, and it doesn’t come from nonlife—that’s exactly what we see. If there was a global flood, we’d expect billions of dead things, buried in rock layers, laid down by water, all over the earth. And that’s exactly what we see. Science does not contradict God’s Word—science actually confirms God’s Word!

A Sure Hope

This is Ken Ham, whose ministry has produced the powerful, unique Answers VBS . All this week, we’ve been looking at why all Christians should be creationists. Here’s number nine. Romans describes a creation that’s groaning because of sin. But Jesus promised he’s coming again and will establish a new heavens and earth. The Bible says this new creation won’t have any death or suffering. It will be free from the curse. Now if God used millions of years to create, the original creation was full of death and suffering, just as it is now, and God called that “very good.” So why should we expect eternity to be any different? No, when we take Genesis as literal history, we know the new creation will be very good!

Jesus Conquered Death

6 days ago

This is Ken Ham, author of the newly updated book The Lie: Evolution and Millions of Years . Why should Christians be creationists? We’ve been looking at ten reasons why, and here’s number eight. Jesus died physically and rose from the dead physically. Now, if life evolved over millions of years, then death existed before sin. And the punishment for sin isn’t physical death. So why did Jesus have to come and physically die? Jesus’ death demands a physical Adam who physically rebelled against God. Paul mentions this several times in his writings. We can look forward to a day when death will be no more because Jesus paid the penalty for our sin and rose again. Someday we’ll be physically raised with him.

Death Grieved Jesus

This is Ken Ham, on a mission to call the church back to God’s Word and the gospel . Today, we’re looking at number seven of ten reasons every Christian should be a creationist: And number seven is Jesus grieved over death. If God used evolution, then death and suffering were part of God’s creative processes. So why did Jesus spend so much of his earthly ministry healing the sick and even raising the dead? If evolution were God’s plan, then death and sickness are good things. Without them, we wouldn’t be here! And yet Jesus grieved over the sick and the dead. Why? Because these were intruders into his creation! It’s because of sin that death and sickness are part of creation. And someday, they’ll be gone forever.

Jesus Is Trustworthy

This is Ken Ham, CEO of the apologetics ministry of Answers in Genesis , based in Kentucky. We’re looking at ten reasons every Christian should be a creationist. Now number six: Jesus is trustworthy. Jesus treated the Old Testament as real history, referring to Adam, Noah, and Abraham as if they really lived and did the things Scripture says they did. Jesus even said that humans were created “from the beginning.” But if humans were created billions of years after the beginning, how is Jesus trustworthy? He was either lying or wrong! When we reject Genesis as history, we have to say Jesus was wrong. But not only is Jesus God, but he’s also the eyewitness Creator. We can trust what he says about origins.

Moved to Worship

11 days ago

This is Ken Ham, head of the ministry that built a full-size Ark near Cincinnati, Ohio. We’ve been looking at ten reasons we should be creationists, and we’re at number five: worship. When we allow God’s Word to be the authority, it inspires a high view of God, which inspires worship. But when we take man’s word over God’s Word, we’re deciding truth for ourselves. This doesn’t lead to a high view of God! And consider this: when we look at all God’s made, what usually happens? We’re moved to worship the all-powerful Creator! But if it’s all the result of natural processes, with just some intervention from God at some point, why should we be moved to worship him? It’s biblical creation that actually inspires worship.

God’s Not to Blame!

This is Ken Ham, a missionary with a passion for sharing God’s Word with the world. This week and next, we’re looking at ten reasons every Christian should be a creationist. And here’s number four. Why is there death and suffering in creation? Many people wonder and end up blaming God. But when we take God’s Word as history, we can have a different perspective on trials—they’re not God’s fault. Death and suffering are consequences of sin. God’s creation was “very good,” but mankind sinned, and the punishment was death. We’re to blame—not God. When we have the right perspective, we can become more like Christ as we go through trials because we can trust our good God who’s working all things for good.

Rooted in God’s Word

This is Ken Ham, whose ministry has produced Answers Bible Curriculum for churches and homeschool . We’re looking at ten reasons every Christian should be a creationist. Number three: We need to be rooted in the Word of God. The New Testament warns against being blown around by every wind of doctrine. If we accept man’s word as truth, this happens. Every time we turn on the news, we must reevaluate what God’s Word says and modify it to fit the newest claims. But if we start with the Bible, knowing that God’s Word is true, we can be firmly rooted in truth. And the godless ideas of man are blown away. Instead of allowing man to be our authority, we need to put our faith in the Word of the eyewitness Creator who never changes.

God Keeps His Promises

This is Ken Ham, CEO of Answers in Genesis , the Ark Encounter , and the Creation Museum . We’re looking at ten reasons every Christian should be a creationist. Here’s number two: God keeps his promises. After the global flood of Noah’s day, God gave the rainbow as a sign that he would never again flood the whole earth. This was his promise to mankind. Now, some Christians say this was just a local flood. But if that’s true, God’s broken his promise over and over. There’ve been many devastating floods since the time of Noah. And if God broke this promise, what about his other promises? But if it were a global flood, as clearly described in Genesis, there’s no problem. God kept his promise then, just as he does now.

God Is Always Good

This is Ken Ham, heading up the ministry that’s built a full-size Ark . Over the next two weeks, we’re looking at ten reasons every Christian should be a creationist. Number one: God is always good. Throughout the creation week, God describes what he’s made as “good” and then as “very good.” Now, if God used millions of years of death and suffering to bring about creation, what did he mean by “good”? Does God view death, suffering, and extinction as “good”? What kind of a good, loving God is that? But if God created in six literal 24-hour days as he said he did, there’s no problem! There was no death or suffering before sin, so God’s creation was truly good because God is good. Dig Deeper 7 Practical Reasons Every Christian Should Be a Biblical Creationist Death Is Not Good…

Two Uses for Archaeology

This is Ken Ham, on a mission to strengthen the global church with God’s Word. Archeological discoveries from Bible times can help us as we study God’s Word. Here are two uses for these artifacts and texts: Providing unknown details. Archaeology gives valuable information about the customs, culture, and religions of the ancient Near East. This can enhance our understanding of the biblical text. But remember, we don’t need this information because Scripture is already clear. Helping us defend the Bible’s historicity. Many archaeological discoveries have confirmed the accuracy of what we read in the Bible. But always remember that God’s Word stands as the authority over anything else.

The Bible Is Different

19 days ago

This is Ken Ham, an Aussie transplant with a passion for sharing the truth of God’s Word. When reading about artifacts and documents from Bible times, watch for the similarities and differences. You might recognize names, places, or events from the Bible. Some of the myths, like flood or creation myths, may even sound familiar because the true account is recorded in the Bible. But note the differences. The Bible doesn’t portray events as if they’re myths. It uses historical narrative. Unlike other ancient sources, the Bible presents one true God, the Creator. And in the Bible, God is the source of power, but in other documents, the gods are controlled by magic. The Bible is different because its author is God.

The Bible Is the Authority

20 days ago

This is Ken Ham, often a guest on radio and TV on the Bible’s authority and reliability. Ancient documents and artifacts can help shed light on the Bible’s historical context. But we always need to remember that Scripture is the ultimate authority for theology, history, and more. It’s the Bible that is a special revelation from the eyewitness Creator. So, if something in an ancient document contradicts the Bible, we know it—not the Bible—must be wrong. We can use the Bible to clarify our understanding of outside sources. We cannot allow sources outside the Bible to be authorities over God’s Word. These sources were written by fallible man. The Bible was written with God as the ultimate author.
