Did God make newer rocks?

Only if you see God in processes like erosion and volcanism. I do.

For a great read and pleasant introduction to historical geology I recommend "Rising from the Plains" by geology-oriented author John McPhee. While he may come a little close to environmental 'preachiness' in a few places (he's dealing with the geologist-grandson of John Muir!) he keeps it pretty balanced. The educational aspect of the book far outweighs any negatives IMO.

I think you may be astounded at how much "new rock" has been created over the past 4+ billion years!

I said volcanic rock was being formed every day.
