Institute for Scientific and Biblical Research

Welcome to the Institute for Scientific and Biblical Research

This is a Special Announcement

On November 9, 2011, President and Founder of ISBR, Dr. William M. Curtis went to be with the Lord after suffering a stroke followed by a heart attack. He will be greatly missed. You can see his obituary here.

Please pray for Beverly, his wife and family as they go through this difficult time, but realizing that although Bill is absent from the body, he is present with the Lord.

We will continue this important ministry and strive to fulfill 1 Peter 3:15:

"Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have."

Also - Friends of ISBR recently made a contribution in Bill's name, which Beverly divided and sent to Answers in Genesis and the Institute for Creation Research, two of Bill's favorite ministries. Thank-you notes can be seen by clicking here: ICR and AIG

ISBR is a Pennsylvania-based, creation and science ministry. We are a group of scientists, theologians and educators who are dedicated to glorifying the Lord through research, study and teaching His story with emphasis on science that agrees with God's word. We believe that the Genesis record is foundational to all the doctrines of the Bible and should be presented as literal historical truth.

Ministries of ISBR include monthly Creation Forum meetings with speakers for all ages and settings and this website

Speakers are available for church or civic functions
