Where am I from? Why am I here? Here are answers to questions many are afraid to ask. The Luckiest Planet explains modern science with a biblical flavour - science returns to God in these pages full of both ancient wisdom and today's reality. Someone said, "The two most important days in a life are the day you are born and the day you find out why!"
In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. What does that mean? Is it relevant today? Try viewing the world from a fresh perspective - a better story. How does the 3500-year-old book of Genesis shed a new light on modern science? What did the forefathers of modern science believe? How can the six days of creation be the same as the 13.7-billion-year history of this luckiest of all planets? Where did Adam come from? Are dinosaurs mentioned in Genesis? How has the Darwinian theory of evolution lost all relevance? What can we learn from the study of the smallest things - nanotechnology, and the largest, the universe that surrounds us?
What is to be our view of the three-legged stool of human misery: slavery, war and discrimination?
What does the Bible say about humanity's relationship with the planet? Our care of the environment, the flora and fauna and all that means for future prosperity. What about energy, climate change, and the WOKE culture of diversity, equity and inclusion? Where does this new religion come from? What are its roots?
Where am I from? Why am I here? These are serious questions that deserve serious answers. Join the journey of discovery to find out where and why!

Michael Chambers arrived by boat from New Zealand in 1969 and first worked as a jackaroo on the outback NSW station Mount Manara. His experiences over the next few years provided the background for the Tom Duncan adventure stories in his earlier books.A fight with a Brahman bull in western Queensland-which he decisively lost-led to a new career with BHP merchandising companies in NSW. In 1989, he packed his wife, five kids, and a dog into a truck and van and headed for the Northern Territory, where he served as State Operations Manager.A lifetime love of Aboriginal people culminated in a four-year relationship with the Yolgnu people of Arnhem Land, including taking a group of thirty Elcho Islanders on a memorable trip to Egypt and Israel. For fifteen years, he owned and ran the iconic NT fishing and camping shops, HAPPY MICKS TACKLE N TENTS -the name chosen by kids from the island. He was also a successful internet entrepreneur in the early years of the century.In 2010, the family moved to Mildura on the picturesque Murray River. Michael and his wife Aileen both retired at age seventy-she from over twenty-five years in aged and palliative care, he from a long stint in retail. Together they've raised five children and now enjoy eleven grandchildren.Drawing from decades of diverse experiences across Australia's landscapes and cultures, Michael writes most days, bringing a unique perspective to life's biggest questions.
