The Creation

Christian Nonfiction · Biblical Studies · Third Edition, 2025

The Creation explores the origins of the universe and all that exists through the lens of Scripture. Beginning with Genesis 1:1 and moving through light, the firmament, the animals, and the creation of man and woman, Rev. Whaley presents a detailed account of how the world was formed — rejecting the myths and alternative theories of modern science and astrology.

Drawing on his years in ministry and his study of the Word — and on hard-won experience, from listening to his father preach to flying above the clouds in the United States Marine Corps — this work invites readers to reexamine the foundation of all existence: not through speculation, but through divine revelation.

The Author

From the pulpit to the page

Rev. Carlton D. Whaley is an ordained Baptist preacher from Ladson, South Carolina, born and raised in nearby Mount Holly. He has dedicated his life to ministry and theological education, holding a Bachelor of Theology, a Bachelor's in Christian Counseling, and a Master of Divinity.

Before the pulpit came the Marine Corps — an experience that still shapes his writing, from the silence above the clouds to the conviction that some truths are meant to be believed rather than seen. His academic background and pastoral experience run through every page of The Creation.

Rev. Whaley is married and the proud father of one daughter.
