Creation Training Initiative (CTI) provides certified, hands-on training courses that
come to your church. We prepare teachers, speakers, and parents to confidently
defend their faith and share the evidence for biblical creation.

What sets CTI apart? Why do churches and schools
choose CTI for their training?

  • CTI goes beyond just hearing information. We use interaction, repetition, and written and verbal exercises to help people retain and use the information (application-level training).
  • Our courses are cost-effective and easy to understand, allowing big and small churches to host courses.
  • CTI has courses that train Christians to be effective speakers and teachers (2 Timothy 2:2).

Mike Riddle: Founder and President of CTI

Apologetics is vital to the Christian faith (1 Peter 3:15; Jude 1:3; Col 10:4-5). Those who share the gospel must also be able to defend the gospel. Our youth are seeking answers to their questions. Through apologetics, we can teach them the answers.
