HIS
CREATION is a Christ-centered ministry committed
to searching out the universe in order to magnify
the attributes of its Creator, our Lord Jesus
Christ. Using Scripture as our lens, we strive
to share His wonderful character, and the marvelous
aspects of His creation, by teaching Christ-exalting
science to children and adults. We publish easy-to-read
materials for families, individuals, and organizations
all over the world. Each of our publications is
designed to serve many purposes:
Encourage worship of our precious Lord Jesus
Investigate God's wonderful character (Theology
Proper)
Present His Gospel with clarity
Provide high-quality lessons (science & nature) for
students of all backgrounds - public school, Christian school,
homeschool, Sunday school
Encourage family reading time and an exploration of God's
creation

We believe that there is one, infinite and all-knowing God,
perfect in all His attributes, one in essence, eternally existing
in three Persons, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We believe that God the Father is the one and only Creator,
and all of the universe was created by His Spirit through
His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ.
We believe that nothing in the universe,
including all forms of life, could exist without
Christ's continuous, sustaining power and care.
We believe that we are to worship the Creator, never the
created thing.
We believe that the Bible is the inerrant and complete
Word of God. We affirm the infallibility, sufficiency, and
authority of Scripture.
We believe that the existence of God is obvious to the
world because the creation reveals His attributes. HIS CREATION
seeks to discover the special ways Christ's attributes are
reflected in creation and communicate this to people around
the world.
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is fully God and
fully man. We believe in His virgin birth, His sinless life,
His miracles, His atoning death on the cross, His bodily resurrection,
His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His second
coming.
We believe that man is dead in his sins and is therefore
in need of salvation through Jesus Christ. We believe that
there is only one way to salvation and that is through hearing
the true Gospel and faith in Jesus Christ. We believe that
the sinner is made spiritually alive by the Holy Spirit and
brought by faith to repentance before the throne of grace.
We believe that salvation is wholly of God by grace on the
basis of the redeeming work of Jesus Christ, the merit of
His shed blood, and not on the basis of human effort. We believe
that the elect are kept by God's infinite power and are thus
perfectly secure in Christ forever.
HIS CREATION is a small, non-denominational ministry
founded in 1989. We are based in Colorado but serve
families, individuals, and groups all around the
world. Our sincerest goal is to honor our Lord Jesus
Christ by getting to know Him better. The Bible
is Christ's autobiography and, in a sense, Creation
represents full-color illustrations of His Word.
Creation adds no truth to Scripture, but portrays
God's attributes in a wonderful way (Romans 1:20).
Our goal at HIS CREATION is to discover our Lord's
character by exploring Creation in concert with
the full truth of the Word of God.
HIS CREATION's small staff is composed almost
entirely of incredibly faithful volunteers. These
include: Dr. Grant Peoples, a practicing family
physician and a member of the Board of Directors
since 1989; Mr. Brian Kooser, a professional graphic
artist who has contributed numerous beautiful
illustrations to the HIS CREATION publications
over the years; Mrs. Gretchen Ganzel, copy editor
and successful homeschooling mom (homeschooled
two children through high school); Tim Carlson,
Deputy Chief in the Westminster, Colorado Police
Department, and board member for many years; Mrs.
Kelley Carlson, Tim's wife and a registered nurse,
who has tirelessly drawn countless pictures for
the HIS CREATION papers; Mr. Josh Destree, web
designer and science consultant, committed to
encouraging Believers in the faith; Mrs. Rachel
Destree, copy editor, who grew up in Kazakhstan
and has a deep passion for people who don't know
Jesus; and certainly not least, Mrs. Colleen Destree,
precious wife of Dr. Destree and contributing
artist of the HIS CREATION publications. Mr. Rick
Destree is Dr. Destree's eldest son, and is currently
the chief web designer for HIS CREATION.
Dr. Rick Destree is the director of HIS CREATION
and is the primary author of all the HIS CREATION
publications. He first surrendered his life to
Christ in September of 1973. He is committed to
a serious presentation of the Bible in all of
his writings. He is also sincerely committed to
an accurate study of science and nature. Dr. Destree
has had a deep fascination in God's Creation since
he was a little boy. He attended the University
of Illinois and received an undergraduate degree
in Agricultural Science in 1977. He went on for
training at the University of Illinois College
of Medicine, and received his M.D. in 1981. Rick
practiced medicine until 1990 when he became the
full-time director of HIS CREATION. Since then,
he has devoted all of his energies to researching
the universe in order to discover reflections
of the Lord's character seen in Creation. He is
deeply committed to sharing these wonders with
children and adults with child-like hearts.
HIS CREATION is also extremely blessed to have
co-laborers in foreign countries who are actively
spearheading translations of our ministry's publications:
Pastor Sergei Golovin of Simferopol, Ukraine,
who is President of the Center for Science and
Apologetics and who has overseen translation of
more than 50 issues of CREATOR into Russian; Pastor
Asher Saleem and Dr. Tahira Saleem of Lahore,
Pakistan, who is presently working to translate
issues of CREATOR into Urdu.
We also want to thank Pete and Sue Rumsley and the Rumsley
family for their dedication and sweet enthusiasm in distributing
English issues of CREATOR to several homes in Australia and
New Zealand.
All of these servants of Christ have a deep passion for God's
glory and desire to see Him honored in many countries around
the world. We thank God for their faith, love, and friendship!
