The Amazing Facts is an American radio program and media ministry founded in 1965 by Joe Crews in Baltimore, Maryland. Inspired by the success of The Rest Of The Story", hosted by Paul Harvey, Crews' original objective was to reach out to both Christian and non-Christian listeners via daily 15-minute programs by opening with a scientific or historic fact, and how it applies to the overall Biblical messages. Later, the program offered accompanying home Bible study courses, as well as books written by Crews himself. In 1987, Amazing Facts initiated a television ministry. Shortly before his death in 1993, Crews invited Doug Batchelor to assume the position of President/Speaker, which he has held ever since. Today, the Amazing Facts radio program "Bible Answers Live" broadcasts mainly out of Sacramento, California each Sunday Evening to about 155 national stations. Amazing Facts has also opened a College of Evangelism and commonly hosts seminars using the same presentation model. Amazing Facts has been accused of being anti-Catholic and of using questionable sources in its criticism of other churches. Radio broadcasts have been a popular entertainment since the 1910s, though popularity has declined a little in some countries since television became widespread. ...
