. . . since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities-his eternal power and divine nature-have been clearly seen . . . from what has been made. Romans 1:20
Ever since God spoke the universe into being, our Earth has been changed and shaped by many powerful things. Volcanoes spew rocks and smoke into the sky. Earthquakes shake the land and thrust mountains up, changing the look of the landscape. Glaciers slowly move down mountains, digging out valleys in the rock. We see God's power when we look at His creation beneath our feet, deep inside the Earth.
We are about to go on an adventure to high mountains, thundering volcanoes, wonderful floating mounds of ice, and deep canyons. We will see the places where Moses and Noah walked, and discover the secret places within the Earth that they never saw. And when we see these places, and look at the powers at work inside the Earth, we will see how and why the world got to be the way it is today. And most important, we will see the power and majesty of God in His creation.
"He who forms the mountains, creates the wind, and reveals His thoughts to man... the Lord God Almighty is His name." Amos
4:13
