The Wild Brothers
Welcome to the world of the Wild brothers!
Brothers Morgan, Hudson, Kian, and Asher Wild have grown up in the jungles of Southeast Asia. They, and their parents Mike and Libby, are missionaries to a remote tribe on the island of Papua sharing the good news of Jesus! They homeschool in their home in the jungle and explore the world around them, even collecting insects for scientists. They have made a scientific discovery, and were the first to collect a particular butterfly!
I have been fascinated watching what life is like for these missionaries from Florida, as they have taken on many aspects of the tribal culture, and are devoting their lives to the Lord and living for Him. They have been, and continue to be, such an encouragement to me. When I watch them in these DVDs, or read their writings on their blog, it makes me want to live for the Lord practically and daily. The four brothers are such fun to watch and learn from. They are a wonderful encouragement to follow the Lord while young and not to waste that time. Their parents also, are tremendous examples of doing what God says, trusting Him with their lives and the lives of their sons.
As a bonus to these DVDs, they keep up a blog! (On the Answers in Genesis website). These posts range from informative, encouraging, interesting and fun, to challenging, insightful and thought provoking, often with an overlap of any of these.
It’s amazing to see and read of what goes into the task of learning a language and culture, and then to learn of how Mike and his colleague translate the Bible into the tribal language. How awesome it is to know of this specific story where God has changed so many lives as they have heard of Jesus!
As a young woman, I am additionally thankful for Libby’s example. She is a blessing to me as I see her faithfulness to the Lord in all the roles of wife, mom, and missionary.
Oh, and I did a little research on California laws…I so want a Common Spotted Cuscus! It is so cute!! Unfortunately, I won’t be getting one. 
There are a total of eight DVDs which are available from Answers in Genesis or some are available on amazon. (We have pictured only the first three).
DVD 1: Welcome to Our World

DVD 4: Tiger Trail

Incredible Creatures That Defy Evolution
Incredible Creatures That Defy Evolution
Science can be so fascinating! Probably my favorite topic in science is zoology. I am amazed at what allows a gecko to walk upside down on something as smooth as glass. I love knowing what keeps a giraffe’s brains from being blown out by extreme blood pressure, when it bends down for a drink of water and its blood travels with gravity instead of against gravity. Ostriches are big, but can they be dangerous? Yes, even a lion better watch out! So many people love horses, and they have some very special features that possibly not all horse-lovers know about. Dogs (certain dogs) are among my favorite animals. Besides being lovable and cute, dogs have some amazing abilities, such as some being able to know that a tornado is coming and then alert people of it.
Dr. Jobe Martin was an evolutionist and later on became a creationist. In these three DVDs he talks about the amazing designs of many different kinds of animals and emphasizes that they were designed. If a giraffe had not been ready-made by a Creator, then partway through the evolutionary process certain functions would be only partway developed. This would be deadly for the giraffe even when it did something so simple as getting a drink of water. Besides that, the functions and abilities of these animals can only make sense if someone very smart put them all together.
The information in these DVDs is not only fascinating, but so important and helpful! This kind of information confirms that our faith is a reasonable faith! Believing in God, and believing that He made the world, is completely reasonable. Our belief is founded on fact and not fairy tales. Yes, God expects us to trust Him even when we don’t understand things, but our trust is founded on truth and fact…the truth of the Bible and the trustworthiness of God. The design of animals is one more proof for the existence of a powerful and wise Creator.
These DVDs include photos and video footage of the animals. The DVDs can be purchased at www.amazon.com and www.evolutionofacreationist.com.
Age recommendation: anyone interested in science, with one exception. The only problem I see is if someone who is still in the process of learning the English language (children) might misunderstand what is being said. In these DVDs, the evolutionist’s perspective is sometimes given. It could be helpful to children if a parent made sure that they understand what was being said. The other time those newer to the language might be confused is if sarcasm is used, as children do not always understand sarcasm. The topic of evolution and creation is a very important one, one that the Enemy uses effectively to get people to doubt God and His Word. If you are a younger person reading this, then know that these DVDs are showing how there is a God and it was God who made the animals.
We love these DVDs and hope they will be a blessing to you too!
