If you’ve visited Ark Encounter, your first thought was probably “wow! The ark was huge!” Most people don’t realize how big the ark actually was until they see it for themselves.

Now why did Noah need to build such a big ship? Well, because he, his family, the animals, and a year’s worth of supplies needed to be onboard. There was even room for anyone who repented but no one did.

Now, some people think the flood was just a local event. But then why would God ask Noah to build such a big ship when he and his family could’ve just moved away?

When we start with the Bible, we know the flood was a global event.
