Introduction
The Society of Creation, founded in 2011, is located at Concordia University Wisconsin, 12800 N. Lake Shore Drive, Mequon, Wisconsin 53097. It has more than 400 members in most states of the US and several foreign countries. We were originally an organization of full-time faculty in various academic disciplines who teach at most of the ten institutions of the Concordia University System (CUS). Since then we have expanded our reach. We welcome members who support our mission but are not CUS faculty and not part of the LCMS.
We support of the historic position of
The Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod on creation, encouragement, and education. This includes people of all denominations and walks of life. Our charter states, "To provide support, education, affirmation, and encouragement for those who teach the historic position of the LCMS on the doctrine of creation and to affirm the biblical position on creation." We do not take positions on other issues, relevant though they may be.
The photo above was taken near the Grand Canyon in July 2012. The Grand Canyon contains much evidence for the worldwide flood of Noah. Those who hold to a worldwide flood, as described in Genesis 6-9 almost always understand the creation story in Genesis 1 as a straightforward account.
