Creation Truth Foundation

G. Thomas Sharp • August 29, 2019

Rejoicing today because Creation Truth Foundation has been in operation for 30 years…hard to imagine the brevity of life! Wow! And when I consider this it causes a litany of associated memories, because this has been for me a significant trip! Many faces and names come to mind, but none more significant than Dr. Edward J. Kelley, pastor of a great church in Birmingham, AL—the place where CTF was birthed in 1989!

When the Lord originally put this vision in my heart (about 1987), I was flying back to Oklahoma City from the Southeast (please forgive me, for I am sure that I have rehearsed this story to you before). Nevertheless, when I had just finished conducting the revival meeting, the Lord began showing me the need for a teaching ministry that emphasized the foundational nature of the Genesis creation on the balance of the Scripture! I thought … if I emphasize “Creation,” then it would be good to use the word “Creation” in the name of the ministry. And since creation is basic to all Biblical truth, then “Truth” should be included in the name also. And since this is foundational to all other Biblical truth, then the word “Foundation” should be included in the name of the ministry as well.

Remember, I am flying back to Oklahoma City, and somewhere in the air about 30,000 feet up, I audibly said, in a low tone of voice, “ Creation Truth Foundation ,” and this vision exploded in my heart, and tears flowed down my cheeks!

We started the CTF ministry in our home and worked from there for about 13 years. Those were precious days, occasionally stressful for Diane because we eventually occupied most of the downstairs of our home. When our office staff reached five full-time workers, I began seeking the Lord for some relief! Ha! We stepped out in faith and purchased an old office building in downtown Noble. We were able to renovate this century old building in six months or so and moved into our present office facility in 1994—for which we praise the Lord, especially my wife, Diane.

We have grown much over the years and God has given us wonderful young, mature men to carry on with this ministry (Matt, Bob and Ryan, and their spouses and families)—for which I praise God every day. We have been able through the help of a donor to purchase over one million dollars of dinosaurs, not counting the trucks and trailers, telescopes, computers, to facilitate the mobile nature of this ministry (plus an office building in Noble, OK) … We have taken the dinosaurs over a hundred thousand miles and set them up in churches, schools, warehouses, shopping centers and miscellaneous buildings all over this country. And, in the last ten years or so, the Lord has enabled us to be debt free, all the while meeting the needs of the CTF payroll in a timely fashion— to God is the Glory!

It has been a tremendous blessing to witness God’s marvelous provision through the years. We could not have done it without the many faithful people who have given sacrificially to CTF. To God be the Glory. So, I wish I could personally hug your neck and tell you with my own voice, “Thank-You!” Nevertheless, rejoice with us as we celebrate His overwhelming provision for these past 30 years. Please receive mine and my wife’s sincere love and appreciation, Isaiah 40:28-31.

Sincerely, Doc & Diane

Artemis... Is No God

By Matt Miles • May 6, 2026
Artemis - the Greek goddess of wild animals, the hunt, vegetation, chastity and childbirth. 1 While the Greek goddess may not be openly worshiped anymore, her name has now been irrevocably linked to the lesser light, just as her mythological twin brother Apollo’s was in the last century. Even so, it was not without Providence showing Who is really present in the affairs of men. NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) has been focused on having a prolonged presence in space with the work of the International Space Station (ISS), so until recently lunar exploration took a backseat. The Artemis missions of NASA have changed that. They began with the first launch in 2022 when an unmanned spacecraft orbited the Moon and returned successfully for the first time since Apollo 17 in 1972. The plan for the Artemis program is to establish an ongoing manned presence on the Moon. In upcoming missions astronauts will return to the surface, marking another generation of Moon exploration. As we press forward, may we never forget the sacrifice of many lives throughout our ongoing space program, and may we remember it is only possible by the ordered design and engineered forces at work in creation by the Lord God our Creator. Many of you may have watched, as I did, as four brave astronauts were launched from the clutches of Earth’s gravity on April 1, 2026. It was hard to describe how proud I was as an American on that day. This country, founded on God-ordained rights and privileges, was the first and only country to place His image bearers on the surface of the lesser light years ago, and we are headed back again. We are literally doing what the Lord asked of us from the Genesis 1:28 mandate in studying His creation. As much as I know that not all who work for NASA have this worldview, there are several that do, praise the Lord! On Artemis II launch day, one of the four astronauts on board was our brother in Christ - Victor Glover, mission pilot.
