About David Rives:
Author, lecturer, and recording artist David Rives is well known for his presentation “The Heavens Declare the Glory of God” and his national lectures on Creation and Biblical Astronomy. His documentary has been translated into numerous languages and broadcast around the world.
David’s work has been featured internationally, through:
Faith TV, SkyAngel, PTCB, Vision Forum, WORLD NET DAILY, Hebraic Roots Network, The Prophecy Club, TRUTH2U Radio, Messiah’s Branch Radio, WATC TV, The History Channel, and more.
He produces a weekly video commentary on Creation and Biblical studies for WorldNetDaily, which reaches tens of thousands of viewers each week. Through this commentary, he is able to teach those who want to know, and reach those who need to know.
David believes that “it is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord”, and through praise and worship, he sings of God’s great love.
Through Biblical astronomy and empirical science, David speaks of the majesty of our vast universe and our Creator. His large GPS Observatory-Class telescope allows David to share his passion for the heavens with others through astro-photography.
David is deeply involved with historical and archaeological research. He has been to the Holy Land over 11 times, and his work on a Dead Sea Scrolls project in Qumran, Israel has been featured on the History Channel.
Today, his multi-media approach captures the interest of audiences, as he continues to deliver the Scriptural message: The Heavens Declare the Glory of God.

Our Mission
Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. …Mark 16:15
David Rives Ministries is dedicated to proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ.1 We desire to tell others about the love of our Savior and His salvation: Salvation that is available to all who will humble themselves, repent, and ask Jesus to enter into their life.2 By way of Biblical astronomy the Creator is exalted as we consider the heavens, the work of His fingers, the moon and stars which He has ordained.3
Scripture instructs us, as believers, to earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.4 Today that faith is being compromised as believers are bombarded with unproven theories of evolution, which deny the very existence of our Creator. Many are being deceived with vain words of evolution that have absolutely no basis in truth. We are to have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness and are told to reprove them.5 In other words we are to expose and call into account false teachings that lead others away from the Biblical Creator.
David Rives Ministries equips believers with facts which confirm the authority of scripture. We believe that all scripture is given by inspiration of God;6 and that the Bible provides a reliable history of the universe. We believe that when actual facts regarding creation are examined, the evidence always confirms the Biblical account.
We believe that God created man in His own image;7 that through the lies of Satan man fell into sin,8 and that the penalty set by God was death9 We believe that a provision for redemption by way of blood sacrifice was established by God,10 and that the sacrificial system pointed to the ultimate sacrifice that the Lord Jesus Christ would make.11 We believe that Jesus laid down His life for our sins as a substitutionary sacrifice, and that all who believe on Him are redeemed by His shed blood.12 We believe that He was risen from the dead in victory, is alive today, and we, as members of the body of Christ, have a holy calling to live according to the instructions of our Savior.13
We believe that it is our responsibility, and also a great privilege to share the good news of the gospel in all the world, for a witness unto all nations.14
That is “Our Mission.”
