Quick Info
Is Genesis History? Mountains After the Flood is the 2023 apologetics documentary movie sequel to Is Genesis History?. Whereas the first movie was a broad overview of creation science, Is Genesis History? Mountains After the Flood follows creation scientists along an important research study seeking to prove Flood geology. While this movie focuses more specifically on geology, this movie is still accessible to the average person like the first movie. It is a great movie for people seeking to learn more about geological evidences for the Biblical Flood.
Synopsis
Is Genesis History? Mountains After the Flood follows creation scientists along an important geology research project. The movie visits various landscapes across the U.S. West to show up close views of the large scale view of Flood geology that the research project is looking for scientific evidence for. The movie follows a team traveling by boat to different areas along the bottom of the Grand Canyon to gather rock samples from strategic areas to study. The rock samples are then followed to a lab where precise work is done to the samples to allow the scientists to view and study the samples at the microscopic level. The movie concludes with the important findings from the expedition into the Grand Canyon.
Why This Movie Matters
- The research project findings shown in the movie appear to support the creation science view of The Flood, plate tectonics, and catastrophism, over the more popular old earth / millions of years viewpoint.
- The movie builds trust in the real scientific work being done by creation scientists by showing the expertise, care, and professional of PhD creation scientists in the field.
- The movie shows that the creation science explanation for rock layers around the world has a multitude of scientific evidence to support it, including at the microscopic level.
- The evidence produced by the study seems to be important evidence for the global flood argument.
- It shows the validity for Noah’s flood being responsible for most of the fossil-bearing rock layers.
- It shows how the world’s landscape changed drastically not only during, but after the flood.
- The movie inspire confidence in the story of Earth history presented in Genesis.
What You’ll Experience
- The movie is hosted by Del Tackett, and travels across the American West and to several geology labs to answer specific questions for how the complex American landscape of mountains, uplifts, canyons, and massive eroded features were formed.
- High production quality, level-headed commentary, and great landscape, action, and aerial shots across the American West.
- A research expedition along the bottom of the Grand Canyon to collect rock samples.
- See landscapes in the American West where massive movements of rock/deposits have taken place.
- The movie explains well how the complex features of the American West landscape came about during and after Noah’s Flood.
- The project being followed by the movie uncovers powerful evidence that supports the Biblical flood view for global rock layers.
Strengths

Best Quotes & Notable Moments
“We wanted to look at those specific layers because they’re at the bottom of that huge stack. If those layers were still soft when they were folded, they can’t be hundreds of millions of years old.”
“It is important that we continue this work and that it succeed, because I believe there is a whole side of scientific investigation that has been largely ignored, and one of the aims that I have is to chase that particular pathway and look at data that may be not necessarily mainstream, but is very, very interesting, and is significant.”
“we have the pieces of the puzzle that seem to assemble themselves. So, we have an explanation. It’s a hypothesis with extreme explanatory power, and it’s consistent with the framework of the Bible.”
