Dear Fellow Pastor or Church Leader,
I believe that one of the biggest obstacles keeping many people from coming to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ is the evolution deception. This deception ultimately leads people to believe that there is no God, thus, keeping them from turning to Him in faith and receiving His amazing love and grace. There are even many Christians who are tripped up by the evolution vs. creation debate, and they are confused about how scientific evidence seems to fly in the face of their faith and what the Bible teaches. As a result, they remain ill-equipped to defend the Christian faith, and may even question the validity of many biblical accounts. Sadly, I even found this to be true in the church I pastor, so when I heard about the creation conference that Chris Ashcraft and the Northwest Creation Network put on, I didn’t hesitate to have them come.
Hosting the creation conference was a tremendous blessing for us as a church. Our congregation was literally amazed, as they learned about the scientific and geological evidence that supports faith in God and the Bible. Many in our community who had believed in the theory evolution also came to discover that it’s exactly that, a theory, and that the overwhelming evidence actually supports a young earth that was created by God. This knowledge is so vital in this day and age, and Chris Ashcraft has invested many years in this area of study, and does an amazing job at presenting it in a way that is engaging, and that the average person can understand. Sometimes hearing a lecture on this subject matter can be a little dry and hard to follow, but that’s not the case when you’re listening to Chris. He keeps your attention, as do the other speakers! I absolutely loved Chris’ talk on “Amazing Animals: Design vs. Darwinism”. He presented things about various animals that I had never known before, or even considered, and I went away from that talk not only with a new appreciation for these amazing animals, but for the amazing God who created them!
I would highly encourage you to consider having Chris Ashcraft share his knowledge on the subject of creation with your congregation, and if you’re considering hosting a creation conference, I’m confident that you’ll be glad you did.
Sincerely,
Jeff Dutra Sr. Pastor

It is my great pleasure to heartily and cheerfully recommend Chris Ashcraft as a masterful, talented, and knowledgeable creation speaker. I have known Chris for about five years and have invited him to speak to Design Science Association of Portland, Oregon, on at least four occasions. His talks have drawn more than two hundred attendees at a time and have had great response from the audiences. Chris knows his topics thoroughly and punctuates his presentations with state of the art photographs, videos, and animations. The talks are well-paced, interesting, and very informative. Chris’ knowledge of current science and especially genetics makes him all the more credible. I have invited Chris into my home on more than one occasion and have come to know him personally. I am impressed with his love of the Lord and dedication to sharing reasons to believe that the Bible is true and can be taken literally. His technical computer skills give him a rare speaker’s gift. Chris is a young scientist called of God for such a time as this to get out the true message of salvation, the truth of scripture, and creation by God—not by some unseen, unknown force or cosmic accident. Feel free to call me if you have any questions about his abilities or presentations. Howard S. Mudder, M.S. Biology, U. of O. Download letter or recommdation.
Chris Ashcraft has taught classes at New Life University for the past 5+ years. He is a very clear communicator who provides biblical truths with insight and thorough knowledge. His classes are some of the best attended. Chris not only teaches adults with enthusiasm and insight, but youth also benefit from his classes. Chris is well studied and brings his strengths on the topic of creation apologetics to his classes. He utilizes current technology to underscore the truths he is teaching. We highly recommend Chris as a teacher and presenter of biblical truth on the topics of creation. Susan Boucard Download letter or recommdation.
Chris Ashcraft recently was a guest speaker for our monthly Men's event and presented "The Heaven's Declare - Seeing God in the Universe." The event was a good draw, kept men's attention throughout, was well received and had a good Bible based message. We need people like Chris who are both knowledgeable and passionate about Jesus Christ and His creation. I recommend Chris and his creation messages for both church and school events.
Dan Hiatt "Just Awesome! We have a God that loves us right where we are. To see where we are in the galaxy, how small. It sure was a Wow Experience. Thanks you for sharing this gift that God has given you. Looking forward to seeing more".
Pastor Matthew and Lauren Nadeau "Wow! We had our mouths hanging open Chris! That was fabulous and I hope you will come and show it to us again!"
