The Creation Resource Foundation, begun in 1983 by former museum curator and pastor, Dennis Petersen, is the providential result of a vision Dennis shares to communicate the gospel of Jesus Christ to our information-flooded, media-confused generation.

Mission

CRF is devoted to the production of Biblically based training materials and programs that relate personally and pragmatically to students everywhere, regardless of their religious or educational background.

Purpose

The purpose of CRF is to use whatever tools, resources, personnel and creativity God provides to help people realize a greater dimension of the purpose and blessing God intends for their lives. The primary goal is to help people recognize and honor their Creator as personal Savior, Master and Provider. Other goals include the production and distribution of effective educational tools that communicate the awesomeness, power, and nature of God while declaring the absolute trustworthiness of His revelation to man, the Bible.

Mr. Petersen personally produces and oversees the production of many phases of ministry activities and distribution. His diverse background in the formal study of science, history, museums, administration and the Bible is enhanced by many related activities.
