He received a bachelor degree in applied science (emphasis on environmental biology) from the Queensland Institute of Technology, and a Diploma of Education from the University of Queensland.

Out of the first four volume in the Answers Book for Kids series by Ken Ham this is probably my favorite one thus far, exceeding my delight of the third volume. A big reason is the topic of book four: Sin, Salvation and the Christian life. These themes are related to the Gospel and one can never go wrong with going over the Gospel to one’s children!
While other books in this series does talk about the Gospel this book is even more explicit with the Gospel given the book’s main topic. I also enjoyed this topic of this book more because while some of the questions in the other volume might have answers that are less certain or even at times when Ken Ham answered but also rightly informed the readers we don’t know for sure or we don’t know at all, a book on the topic of the Gospel is one of the Bible’s more certain subject and what God has clearly revealed in Holy Writ. But it also allows readers to stay focus of why we are reading these answers book series in the first place: for the salvation of the readers and edification those who are saved to grow in their salvation (Christian life). Questions in this book include “Could God forgive our sins without the suffering of Christ?,” “What does being ‘born again’ mean?” and “Why does God let the bad guys win sometimes?” Again I recommend this book.

While it is true that much of our theological foundation stems from the Genesis account, this book is best when dealing with questions more directly related to Genesis. The questions are pretty engaging, but I think that is because this book seems to feature "older"/ more mature questions that are regularly discussed among adults. And therein lies the problem with the brief format. The answers to these deep, substantial inquiries are short and somewhat less satisfying to an adult mind. In addition, there are many other resources that are dealing with these questions, making this one not as unique.
I am extremely pleased with the first two installments of this series. They make a unique contribution to our thinking and are focused on the specific questions that arise from a study of Genesis. However, I could have passed on the last two, including this one. But, since we have it, I will keep it and use it, though not as intentionally as the first two.
