Six Days: The Age of the Earth and the Decline of the Church

Six Days examines the biblical account of creation and its implications for modern Christianity. Ken Ham argues that a literal interpretation of Genesis—specifically the six-day creation narrative—is foundational to Christian theology and worldview. The book addresses how accepting evolutionary timescales and an ancient Earth has influenced church doctrine and cultural values, contending that returning to a straightforward reading of Scripture strengthens faith and consistency in biblical teaching. Ham explores the tension between scientific consensus and scriptural authority, making the case for young-Earth creationism as the more coherent theological position.
