FOLEY, Minn., July 16, 2013 /Christian Newswire/ -- One of the oldest biblical creation ministries in the US -- Creation Moments -- is now celebrating its fiftieth year of proclaiming the truths of biblical creation. To thank the ministry's faithful supporters, the ministry is hosting the Creation Moments 50th Anniversary Celebration on Saturday, September 7, at University of Northwestern-St. Paul (formerly Northwestern College). There is no cost to attend the event, but reservations are required.

Speakers will include: Ian Taylor, long-time host of the Creation Moments radio program and author of the classic In the Minds of Men; Mark Cadwallader, author and chairman of the Creation Moments board of directors; and special guest Mike Snavely, popular creation speaker and president of Mission: Imperative.

Creation Moments was started in 1963 by Walter Lang, a Lutheran pastor who knew that scientific evidence existed which favored a biblical creation model. His heart grieved for the many young people who left the faith of their upbringing because evolution was virtually unopposed. Finding no creation periodicals, he began the Bible-Science Newsletter and shortly afterwards the Bible-Science Association, which later became Creation Moments. The mimeographed Newsletter filled a void at the time, people responded and Pastor Lang became a full-time, tireless crusader for creation science.

In 1986 the two-minute international Christian radio broadcast "Creation Moments" was born. "Creation Moments" became one of the top five US syndicated radio programs of five minutes or less. The broadcast is now heard on more than 1,200 radio stations and outlets throughout the world and carried on five major networks: Bible Broadcast, Moody, LifeTalk Network, Family Radio and Bott Radio. The ministry provides free programs for Christian radio stations, resources for churches and parents, a bookstore outreach and a website filled with thousands of articles and radio scripts. The ministry also publishes a series of Letting God Create Your Day books.
