DVD-Explore Yosemite and Zion National Parks with Noah Justice



Another great Awesome Science title!
My teen/tween boys (12, 14, 15) love the Awesome Science DVDs. My 8-year-old enjoys them too. The 6-year-old, however, wants nothing to do with it... well, except she enjoys watching the bloopers in the bonus features. So I'd say this is good for somewhere around ages 8 and up. Your mileage, of course, may vary.

I think what my boys like the best is the high-energy style that Noah brings to the series. He spits out a lot of information, and is always so upbeat. And he's a peer, so it is just more fun for them to watch. The publisher says that this is by teens, for teens... but I think this would appeal to tweens and adults.

My oldest sometimes wishes that the information given would include some specific examples, but he also praises the video where there is a fair amount of detail given on one topic -- like radiometric dating, in this one.

I think it inspires us to do some of our own research. In addition, hearing Noah present the topics drives...

Explore Yosemite & Zion National Parks
In Explore Yosemite and Zion National Parks , authored by Kyle Justice, Noah Justice takes the viewer on a 30 minute spectacular visit to two wonders of the world. This particular DVD goes into great detail and gives indepth explanations of Radioisotope Dating and The Great Ice Age.

" The amazing granite cliffs are a part of the Sierra Nevadas, a huge rock batholith thought to have been formed over millions of years. But new evidence helps researchers understand how the formation of these mountains took just weeks or months.

In addition, Yosemite Valley is thought to have been cut by the Merced River and multiple ice ages over long ages, yet this huge valley is actually evidence of erosion due to a catastrophe during and right after the Global Flood."

In addition, you'll also learn:
Who are the Rate Group and what their research and findings have accomplished
The significance of radiohalos
The trouble with secular science's explanation...

Fabulous explanation of the Flood with two marvelous National Parks.
Here's another interesting DVD from Awesome Science! Noah Justice has once again delivered a great explanation of biblical evidence in some of the geological wonders in our world. This time he is bringing us to Yosemite and Zion National Parks - both places that I would love to visit one of these days! Through this DVD we learned the history of Yosemite National Park and learned that it was one of the first scenic areas of land set aside for the enjoyment of the public. The view is breathtaking and it's a wonder how people don't see the hand of the creator when they visit that place.

Thought this DVD you will learn how the valley is evidence of erosion from a global Flood, how the one and only ice age happened and how long it lasted, and finally you will travel to Zion Canyon to discover its layers, arches and hanging valleys. We particularly liked the original example of Noah presenting a miniature version of how Zion Canyon have been formed. This presentation in...
