About me
David Rives is one of the world’s leading experts at the intersection of science and the Bible,
recognized for his ability to communicate complex scientific concepts through a clear,
compelling biblical worldview. He is a science expert commentator, biblical scholar, television
host, author, keynote speaker, and documentary producer whose work reaches millions
worldwide through television, radio, and digital media.
David serves as the Director and Founder of the Wonders Center & Science Museum, the largest
science museum in the United States presenting science from a biblical, design-based worldview.
The Wonders Center is also home to one of the world’s top-tier state-of-the-art planetariums.
He is also the founder of the 24/7 Genesis Science Network, an international media platform
dedicated to exploring scientific discovery through the lens of Scripture, which has become a
trusted authority on how modern science consistently points to intentional design.
His passion, and eventual calling, for science began at a young age, first through discovering
fossils in his backyard and later, as a teenager, by capturing images of the Great Orion Nebula
with his camera attached to his telescope. Since then, he has devoted his life to exploring
groundbreaking scientific topics, including dinosaur soft tissue discoveries, advanced
astrophysics research, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and other remarkable findings that affirm and
powerfully support the reliability of Scripture.
David is the author of the bestselling books 21 Verses Backed by Science and Wonders Without
Number, both of which highlight how specific biblical passages are affirmed by modern
scientific discovery. He also hosts the television newscast Genesis Science Report and the
Changing the Narrative Podcast, where he addresses science, culture, and biblical truth in a
rapidly changing world.
At the heart of David’s message is a compelling truth: we are intentionally created by a Creator.
He encourages audiences of all ages to pursue a personal relationship with that Creator through
Christ, emphasizing that science is not a threat to faith but one of its strongest confirmations.
David is especially passionate about inspiring young people to pursue their dreams and calling
placed within them by their Creator, encouraging them that they are “created with a purpose.”
David loves to quote Psalm 19:1: “Truly the heavens declare the glory of God.”
David is a nationally recognized voice and has been featured on TBN, Newsmax, the History
Channel, CBN, Scripps News, Fox, and Dr. James Dobson’s Family Talk, among others. He
is also heard daily on Christian radio networks across the United States, where he continues to
equip audiences with confidence in both their faith and the scientific evidence that supports it.
